Recovering in a D.C. hospital from a Tunisian car bomb accident, FBI agent Ford MacDougal awakens from a violent dream in which his sister Jilly drives off a cliff and into the ocean. Ford feels her fear as well as her anger and agony over the betrayal by someone named Laura, and shares the utter stillness as the frigid waters engulf her. The next morning, he receives the news that Jilly was indeed in a car accident. And when he arrives in Edgerton, Oregon, it quickly becomes obvious that something mysterious and deadly is going on in the quiet, little town. Add a quirky cast of characters, including a sexy, undercover DEA agent named--you guessed it--Laura, a drug that improves sex exponentially but has the unfortunate side effect of making its users psychotic, and you've got all the ingredients for a fast-paced, can't-put-down thriller. --Alison Trinkle Product Description: FBI agent Ford MacDougal heads to the Oregon coast in search of a plausible explanation for his sudden ESP-only to discover more puzzling mysteries.

 Rating:  - Sharp CliffSavich and Sherlock are back to help Ford MacDougal, who appeared in THE MAZE, find his missing sister who had driven off a cliff in Oregon. Events are compelling, bazaar and fast paced but character development is static. At times it seems as if one is reading the same story over and over. Nash Black, author of TRAVELERS and SINS OF THE FATHERS. Rating:  - Okay but Left QuestionsI just finished "The Edge", the 4th in the FBI Series. I liked it okay (if Savich and Sherlock are included, then it's worth the read). However, some of it was a bit unbelieveable and seemed like the ending left lots of questions. I got impatient with the 4 agents lost in the Jungle and finally skimmed to the point they wandered out of there but then things seemed to just tie up quickly and not what I was expecting. I didn't dislike it but just wasn't my favorite of the series do far. "The Maze" ... Read More Rating: - The Edge reviewThe book was a slow read. There was just not enough action to keep things going. I have read other books by this author and I can see that this is not one of the best releases. Still I will continue to buy those written by Coulter as everyone has a "bad release" now and again. Rating: - This is a good bookThe Edge is a good book. I enjoyed it. It was kind of slow but not too slow. I received it in great shape. Rating: - Not As Great As The Others...I'm a big fan of Catherine Coulter's FBI Series. So far, I've read six books from the series and have loved all of them...except The Edge. While she does bring back her best characters (the husband and wife team of Savich and Sherlock), the other characters lack depth. The character of Laura (a DEA agent and main love interest) was predictable and I never thought that I found out enough about her. Also, I wasn't fond of the first person writing style she used in this one. While Mac (the first person) ... Read More
