The Latest from Jeffrey Deaver

  It's been quite awhile since I read a Jeffrey Deaver novel, and I was pleased to see that Kathryn Dance is the protagonist in his latest book, Solitude Creek, because I especially like her character. This is the fourth novel in the Kathryn Dance series.

The novel has an interesting premise: create an imaginary threat and watch as people are panicked into contributing to their own deaths. This is how the villain, Antioch March, operates.

The novel begins with a stampede in a roadhouse caused by someone yelling "Fire" and soon "[n]o one attending a play, sitting in a movie theater, dining in a restaurant or stepping into an elevator is safe" as March plans more attacks.
