Meg quickly sold The Cutting to major publishers in the both the US and seven other countries and I was off and running. Meanwhile, I've started a new novel with a new hero. He's New York City private investigator named Charlie Spiller who specializes in investigating financial crimes like money laundering and tax evasion but who, in this book, ends up trying to solve the ugly murder of his newest client, a beautiful woman who is thrown to her death from the terrace of her twelfth floor penthouse. I'm not exactly sure what happens next but I am pretty sure that Charlie will solve the crime.

The only criticism I had with this book was that I wanted to killer to be a bit more prominent in this story. I wanted to get to know the killer, so that I could fully understand who McCabe was up against. The Chill of Night will give you chills. Jul 18, Diane Dachota rated it liked it. My first book by Hayman and his detective McCabe series. Lainie Goff is a beautiful young lawyer in Portland, Maine. Right before the Christmas holiday, Laine is waiting to hear about being made a partner in her law firm.
Since she is sleeping with the much older and wealthy partner who is on the decision committee, she feels sure she will get it. Meanwhile, Detective McCabe is dealing with an artist girlfriend who is scared to commit, a teenage daughter and a ex-wife with an agenda, when he rec My first book by Hayman and his detective McCabe series. Meanwhile, Detective McCabe is dealing with an artist girlfriend who is scared to commit, a teenage daughter and a ex-wife with an agenda, when he receives notice about about a body found frozen in the trunk of an expensive car.
Throw in a place called Sanctuary for troubled teens, and a bi-polar young woman on the run, and you have the characters for a mystery. I found the characters to be kind of stereotypes the sensitive yet hard detective with the difficult ex-wife who comes home and drinks scotch from crystal glasses, the ex-priest who works with troubled teens yet has issues of his own, the lawyer who tries to sleep her way to the top. I was interested enough to finish and the who dun nit part was layered well, just wasn't excited about the novel overall. I started this series with the first book, The Cutting.
I really enjoyed it.
So, naturally, it is to be expected that I enjoy this too. These books keep me on the edge of my seat!
It's like reading from a script of Criminal Minds. First, you don't necessarily need to read the first book to read this one. They are two separate stories. The only reason I would suggest reading the first one is to get I started this series with the first book, The Cutting. The only reason I would suggest reading the first one is to get to know McCabe and crew first.
You don't get a whole lot of character development in this one, like you do in the first one.
The Chill of Night has ratings and reviews. Jenny said: The Chill of Night is book two of McCabe and Savage series by James Hayman. The latest. www.farmersmarketmusic.com: The Chill of Night: A McCabe and Savage Thriller (McCabe and Savage Thrillers) (): James Hayman: Books.
This book dives right into the new case. There is no build up. The starts right off and continues through the book. It's more down and dirty than the first book. There's more detail in the action. More mental images that will keep you grimacing and wanting more! If you are a thriller fan or looking for a little change, James Hayman is the man for you!
He will not disappoint in either area! This is the second in James Hayman's mystery series set in Portland, Maine and environs. I raced through this novel in two rapid sittings, totally engrossed. The killer sought is one very perverted Individual, and I This is the second in James Hayman's mystery series set in Portland, Maine and environs. The killer sought is one very perverted Individual, and I couldn't have guessed in advance the identity.
That made the denouement all the more powerful. Author Hayman weighs in strongly on certain vulnerable topics--childhood abuse, mental disorders, and criminal perversions. His characters are realistic and draw the reader's empathy. Jan 18, Jenifer Mohammed rated it it was amazing Shelves: As McCabe and Savage try to figure out who killed and stuffed a beautiful lawyer in the trunk of her car, they encounter a host of potential killers and a victim who becomes more sympathetic, the more they learn about her past.
Complicating the situation is the need to search for a schizophrenic witness who saw the murder and wasn't first believed by the police even as the killer stalks her.
Things get even crazier as they find evidence of a sexual sadist and need to track him down as well. This As McCabe and Savage try to figure out who killed and stuffed a beautiful lawyer in the trunk of her car, they encounter a host of potential killers and a victim who becomes more sympathetic, the more they learn about her past. This thriller will keep you guessing to the very end. May 31, Michael J.
Great Ending For some reason I always think book 2 of any series does not have the holding power of book 1. Sadly, this book lived up to that.
The story tended to drag a bit in the middle. Putting this book down was not difficult. Hayman saved the book with its ending. Not so much for plot, that was almost Jessica Fletcher predictable. The quality of the writing returned to book 1 level. A female attorney is murdered and the only witness is a disturbed woman. I found the killer to be obvious about half way through, but the book did pick up from around page I rated it 3 stars but it was in my opinion really a 2.
Apr 20, Lynn rated it really liked it. I enjoy the characters and the plot and pacing of the story. Apr 04, Michele bookloverforever rated it it was ok Shelves: Another excellent book by James Hayman. It's Christmas and Attorney Lainey Elaine Goff is ready for her vacation trip to Aruba but first, she has to receive a phone call - the one that tells her the managing partner is coming to the office - to tell her she will receive the partnership offer. All those many time in his office are going to pay off and she will be able to justify the purchase of her new BMW or the lavish vacation trip.
Except she doesn't make the flight; instead her body is foun Another excellent book by James Hayman. Except she doesn't make the flight; instead her body is found in the trunk of her new car frozen solid. Now, the rush to find the killer is on and leads McCabe and Savage on a chase that points straight at the ex-priest that has opened a safe house for runaway teens. Jan 06, N. Moors rated it liked it. Lainie Goff's an up-and-coming attorney when her frozen body is found in the trunk of a car down on a wharf off Commercial Street. Mike McCabe and Maggie Savage are assigned to find the murderer.
I've been skipping around through Mr. Hayman's series, and this one was probably the one I've liked the least. I knew who the murderer was about halfway through the book, and found the story fairly predictable. I do always like the Portland locations and recognized Hart Island as Peak's Island out in Cas Lainie Goff's an up-and-coming attorney when her frozen body is found in the trunk of a car down on a wharf off Commercial Street.
It's an enjoyable series and this is a good quick read, but just not my favorite. Mlada, krasna, ctiziadostiva pravnicka sa chce vysvihnut medzi partnerov. Ma pomer s jednym z nich, ale zial, nepodari sa jej to. A o to vacsia skoda je, ze o par tyzdnov ju najdu v aute zmrznutu na kost. Vysetrovatelia McCabe a Savageova pomaly odkryvaju stopu za stopou. Ked si uz vsak mysliste, ze vraha poznate, vsetko je uplne inak emoticon.
Za mna jednoznacne odporucam, urcite si precitam aj dalsie knihy autora. This book pulls you in and won't let you go. A web of twists and turns keeps the reader guessing who the killer is; and when you think you've nailed it down I read the first book of this series and loved it. The second is even better. I love the chemistry between McCabe and Savage. McCabe has the usual back story of most detectives, messy divorce, grown daughter. Trying to keep his life together. Frozen corpse discovered in the boot of a car. Just gets better from there. A must read if you are into mysteries and thrillers.
Even though this is the second book, it stands alone. Not necessary to read them all or in any order. I have read this entire series, and I wasn't disappointed in the least. I do wished I had read this one before Darkness First, but hey it's fine because they were both heart stopping, albeit for a second, thrillers. The characters just keep evolving, personal and professional development throughout.
The stories are each as intense as the next. I would highly recommend any and all of Hayman's books. Apr 29, Amber Osborne rated it it was amazing. I normally do not read thrillers or mystery novels, but recently I have been opening up my reading interests. I genuinely liked this book, I felt that the characters felt relatable, their interactions were believable and I really liked the twist reveal at the end. My only complaint is that some of the loose ends didn't feel tied up properly, and one of the characters is called by 2 different names throughout the book.
All in all, a solid enjoyable read. Your display name should be at least 2 characters long.
