True Evil - Greg Iles - By: A-M C. Le Noury, 29 Aug 2008 
Absolutely loved this book. It's a thriller that keeps you turning the pages & unable to put the book down. This is the first book I've read by Greg Iles but I've just ordered everything else he's written! If you like James Patterson, you'll like Greg Iles!
Decidedly better than average - By: lmhh, 16 Aug 2008 
This is an original & compulsive thriller. FBI agent Alex Morse believes her sister has been murdered - by natural causes - & that someone has discovered how to give people fatal diseases. She also believes she knows who the next victim is going to be, & tries to persuade him to help her find out who is behind the murders. The emotional aspect to the story comes throughin Morse's promise to her dying sister to take care of her nephew who is still living with his father, a man Morse believes is implicatedin her sister's death. Good action. Believable dialogue. Emotional complications. A cracking good read. Thoroughly enjoyable
another awful one from Greg iles - By: booky, 04 Aug 2008 
After the horrendously bad footprints of god I thought I'd give Greg Iles another chance. What a load of rubbish this book is, dont bother wasting your time - he's gone the same way as patricia cornwell & is now churning out rubbish not worth bothering with
Dissenting voice - By: Mrs Campbell, 25 Jul 2008 
This was my first book by this writer, but it was a disappointment. Not one of the characters ever left the page. The medical stuff was far too dense for non medical readers, plus there was a lot of background stuff not explained - like how did Grace know that her husband had killed her? Why had she not warned her sister that he was unsuitable to look after their son before this? It was also far too long. I also thought that there were too many handy people who seemed to drop everything to do favours for Alex.
Short of his usual standards..... - By: johnverp, 07 Jan 2008 
This is a typically good Iles novelin that it has been well-written & his research skills are therein abundance again. A novel medical thread holds much of the plot together.
However, it is a long-winded story (200 pages too long?) & there are quite a few over-the-top elements; the villain, for instance, never seems to sleep & pops up everywhere despite holding a very high profile job.
I am a big Iles fan, but he seems to have taken his eye off the ball with this onein not having all the ingredients there. 7/10
