    • 2/5
      Way too many chacters get woven into an overly detailed intricate scheme. I finished thebook....but barely:)
    • 4/5
      A pretty good suspense story but there really wasn't much romance. It's always fun to read about an investigation with Savich and Sherlock. I liked the bond developing between the heroine and the hero's daughter. I just wish there was more romance in the story. PI Erin barely escapes a break in and FBI agent Bowie is in charge of the case.
    • 3/5
      First book I've read by this popular author. I thought it was pretty well written with a believable plot and a distinctive cast of characters. Sure, all the loose ends came together for a happy ending -- but you were drawn into wanting it to end that way.
    • 3/5
      I thought the "communication with the dead" distracted from the rest of the plot, hence the 2.5 star rating. This will not deter me from reading future books from this author.
    • 3/5
      Improbable plot that irritated me. When does the FBI allow civilians who they suspect of thievery help them solve a crime? The part I liked was that one of the FBI agents communes with ghosts. That part was interesting. Crappy fiction.

      cancer drug withheld as drug company has plan to get more money-murders-FBI enters-Senator sees wife's ghost
    • 3/5
      Schiffer Hartwin is a pharmaceucitical company that developed a drug that is beneficial for people undergoing chemptherapy. When the patent ran out, the drug lost most of the earnings that it made for the company. Suddenly, the supply of the drug runs out.Dr. Edward Kinder, whose father is undergoing chemotherapy, hires PI Erin Pulaski to break into the company offices and get proof that the company is manipulating the supply. When she does, she is almost caught but does escape.The next day, a German citizen is found murdered on Federal land outside of the company offices and FBI team of Lacey Sherlock and Dillon Savich are called in.Also arriving is a German agent, Andreas Kesserling, who is to help in the investigation. He reports to Bowie Richards, the FBI agent in charge of the New Haven office.When they were summoned, Dillon and Lacey had been helping US Senator David Hoffman who stated that he was seeing something outside of his home window. When Dillon went to the Senator's back yard, he heard a spirit warning him that harm was coming to the Senator.Cons: there was supposid unrest in the New Haven office when the FBI brought in an outside agent to run the office. In fact, the FBI and many law enforcement agencies bring in an outside person for new command so that earlier friendships between members of that unit do not complicate the chain of command and command decisions....one agent had his ring tone set to Christmas carols and the reader was informed that "It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas" was playing. This would be unprofessional for an agent to do and took away from the drama of the scene....an FBI hearing voices of a spirit....repetetive phrases "...she ate another shrimp." "I see you ordered the shrimp." "I usually order the shrimp, myself" ...unrealistic dialogue...Agent Kesselring is announced as walking in. "What are you doing here Agent Kesselring?" Unneeded if the character was just announced.Pros: In spite of the above, the author tells a good story and I was interested in finding out how the mystery would be solved.I have enjoyed Catherine Coulter's novels in the past but I don't think this is one of her better novels.
    • 3/5
      Savich and Sherlock on a new case (or two). I could kind of buy Savich's ESP talents in previous books, but when he goes into his office and tries to communicate with a dead person, it's going too far, in my opinion. I thought that whole story line was kind of weird, and unnecessary. Even the main plot didn't hang together very well, and I didn't find the solution convincing. However, I enjoyed the byplay between Sherlock and Savich, and the introduction of Erin and Bowie. These are people I enjoy spending time with. All in all, it's probably my least favorite of the series, but still good enough to keep me interested and coming back for whatever #15 turns out to be.
    • 3/5
      With a U.S. Senator stalked by a ghost and something more sinister, and the enforcer for an international drug company turning up dead on federal property, FBI agents Sherlock and Savich are spread thin. Good thing SAC Bowie Richards is on the case, too. For P.I. Erin Pulaski, the case seemed simple enough - getting her hands on the documents proving an international drug company's nefarious motives might be illegal, but not difficult. Not until the morning after a botched break-in, when someone turns up dead and the FBI comes knocking on her door...Minimal romance, lots of pointed banter, and a plot stretched very thin. Not Coulter's best effort, not by a long shot.
    • 4/5
      Whiplash is Catherine Coulter’s 14th in her FBI Thriller seriesErin Pulaski is about to get her Irish-Polish American PI rear into hot water trying to help her latest client, while SAC Bowie Richards is looking for a burglar who daringly dropped out of the window of the CEO of a powerful pharmaceutical company and dropped into the biggest intrigue ever, oddly enough the two events are related. Meanwhile in Washington Dillon and Sherlock are looking into the spectral appearance of to powerful Senator. Soon the two couples are brought together to help Bowie and Erin finds herself where she doesn’t want to be, in the hot seat.Catherine has wowed us with the antics and heroics of her beloved husband and wife FBI team of Dillon Savich and Lacy Sherlock who’ve at least co-starred if not starred in each of the previous 13 FBI novels. As usual the events portrayed in this volume is something easily taken off CNN or the New York Times and the headline would read “Pharmaceutical Company chooses profit over patient cure”, is it true or just someone trying to sabotage the good name of the giant firm. We’ll leave that for the experts to solve and while they solve it they will take us on a wild ride of an adventure, through the streets of Washington and in the Suburbs of Connecticut while they try and solve two different crime sprees. The dialogue is to the point direct, no overabundance of words here, the author knows what she wants to say and says it, the end. Her characters are, yes, larger than life, and yet they are very personable, very charming in her good guys and very disagreeable in her villains. Her budding romance between Bowie and Erin is very sweet and contains nothing that would be offensive to any reader, but the romance is not the main point that would be the mystery/thriller and that is first rate, filled with intrigue and suspense and heart stopping action.This is one of your must reads of the summer.
    • 4/5
      Feeling she had few options, Erin Pulaski committed the crime of breaking and entering the offices of the pharmaceutical company that had been denying her client access to lifesaving drugs for his father. As a private investigator, Erin knew the risks but her father had trained her well and she accessed the files needed and escaped. Finding out that a man had been brutally murdered and left for dead near the same area at around the same time she had been there meant that she could be the best suspect the police, or in this case FBI Special Agent Bowie Richards would have, if they knew she was the one that broke in. Opening the door to Agent Richards stopped her cold, only to find out that he was not only the agent in charge of the murder investigation, but the father of one of her dance students that she taught on the side. Bouncing from one delicate case to another, Special Agent Dillon Savich and his wife Special Agent Lacey Sherlock had just finished witnessing some strange happenings at a senators residence when they were brought in to help Bowie, whether he wanted the extra help or not.Book 14 ….. As always it is wonderful to see Savich and Sherlock working together and with others. I enjoyed the added bonus of seeing Dane, Ruth and some of the others from previous books. As much as I like Savich’s new abilities, in this book, it was more of a distraction. While the senator’s story line was interesting and added a link with Bowie it was (in my opinion) not necessary to the book. I would have rather seen more of the Erin / Bowie relationship. Usual S&S’s style is to get another couple together, but for this one it was a very, very mild romance if you could even call it that. I really wanted more of the romance end, S&S didn’t even give too much of a show in that category. A bit of a disappointment on the Romantic - suspense genre, but a solid Suspense novel anyways.
