High Noon

De: Nora Roberts

Narrado por: Susan Ericksen

Phenomenal #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts presents a spine-tingling novel about a female cop who walks fearlessly into danger - but must draw on her courage to let love into her life.

Police Lieutenant Phoebe MacNamara found her calling at an early age when a violently unstable man broke into her family’s home, trapping and terrorizing them for hours. Now she’s Savannah’s top hostage negotiator, who puts her life on the line every day to defuse powder-keg situations.

After watching her talk one of his employees off a roof ledge, Duncan Swift is committed to keeping this intriguing, take-charge woman in his life. Phoebe’s used to working solo, but she’s finding that no amount of negotiation can keep Duncan at arm’s length. Especially when a man throws a hood over Phoebe’s head and brutally assaults her - in her own precinct house - and threatening messages begin appearing on her doorstep. Duncan backs her up every step of the way, as she establishes contact with the faceless tormentor who is determined to make her a hostage to fear - before she becomes the final showdown.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A courageous protagonist, deft plotting and the sultry Savannah backdrop all add up to another winner for consummate storyteller Roberts." (Publishers Weekly)

"High Noon will enthrall readers with its irresistible combination of superbly crafted characters and a danger-rich plot." (Booklist)

A stunning "read"

and then it was finished!

The characters are "real" they have lives and history.

I just couldn't stop listening and then it was gone and in true Nora Roberts style I missed the 2nd book.

Thank you, well done it was GREAT!

Great book, kept me hooked until the very end!!

I love all Nora Roberts books. She keeps you on the edge of your seat, until the very end. Just couldn't put it down! The twist and turns, kept me guessing!!

Great Story!

The storyline of the book was excellent! Kept me guessing until the end. Found the narration a bit distracting and a little hard to follow which character was speaking! Overall a very good book!

Great characters, Romance, Exciting crime story

Nora Roberts' books are often vastly different from one another. Some I enjoy - others not as much. This is one of the good ones. The main male character is the sexy, exciting, dependable man every woman wants and the main female character is a police hostage negotiator, a heroine in every aspect of her life. If pressed to identify this book's genre, I'd have to say it is a romance/crime//thriller. Although the book focuses on the heroine's occupation and the police investigation that threatens her life and the lives of the people she loves, her romance and home life are woven into the entire story. I recommend this one.

Loved it and wanted more

This was great. All of the stories blended so well and showed Phoebe so completely. I wanted the rest of the story...

What a warm feeling at the first sound of Susan Ericksen's voice. I loved it all!
