About this audiobook
#1 New York Times bestselling author Iris Johansen explores the darkest corners of the human heart as forensic sculptor Eve Duncan closes in on the killer who stole her daughter so many years ago.
As a former Navy SEAL turned cop, Joe Quinn has seen the face of evil and knows just how deadly it can be. When he first met Eve Duncan, he never expected to fall in love with a woman whose life would be defined by her dual desires to bring home her missing daughter and discover the truth behind her disappearance—no matter how devastating. With the help of CIA agent Catherine Ling, they make a shocking discovery that sheds new light on young Bonnie's abduction and puts Quinn squarely in the crosshairs of danger. Eve's first love, John Gallo, a soldier supposedly killed in the line of duty, is very much alive—and very much a threat.
Emotionally charged, with one shock after another, Quinn reveals the electricity of Joe and Eve's first connection, and how they fell in love in the midst of haunting tragedy. As their search takes them deeper and deeper into a web of murder and madness, Joe and Eve must confront their most primal fears . . . and test their resolve to uncover the ultimate bone-chilling truth.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is the second book into finding out what happened to Bonnie. This was a great read I really enjoy it. Loved the suspense.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5As a former Navy SEAL turned cop, Joe Quinn has seen the face of evil and knows just how dark the shadows of the soul can turn. But when he met Eve Duncan a decade ago, he never expected to fall in love with a woman whose torment has ultimately fueled her twin desires to bring her missing daughter home and reveal the truth of her disappearance, no matter how devastating it may be. Eve's fateful first love, John Gallo, seems to hold the key to the mystery of young Bonnie's fate. With Joe's life hanging in the balance at the hands of John, justice may never be served - unless CIA agent Catherine Ling, who owes her own child's life to Eve and Joe, can outsmart him at his own game.I found this book to be very exciting and suspenseful in its own right, full of strong characters and well-written. but the book was not really my cup of tea. This is the second book in a trilogy, and I must say that because I hadn't read the first book it took me a while to realize what was going on. I give Quinn by Iris Johansen an A!
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Well, during the reading it was very easy to dip into the plot. Also I've never read a book by Johansen I was getting very quick familiar with the characters. Mostly it was gripping and I liked the different views to solve the case. BUT I was really disappointed at the end, because there is no end. On the backside of the book cover is written: . . . and test their resolve to uncover the ultimate bone-chilling truth.Well, I can turn and shift the book as much as I like, I can re-read the last pages as often as possible BUT there isn't any bone-chilling thruth. It's an abrupt end and as a reader I've been left in a vacuum. In my opinion this is an absolutely NO-GO.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I didn't think it was going to be alot of new angles to Eve and Quinn relationship. When Cathrine found out that Bonnie's fother was still alive and he was in Gorgia around the same time Bonnie went missing.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I had a problem getting into this story, very slow starting. Read 63 pages and it hadn't caught my interest yet. Bit on the dark side.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Disappointing, too much redundancy
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Iris Johansen has done it again. She reeled me into this book and I couldn't put it down and even knowing the next book, Bonnie, was coming out so we wouldn't find out who her murderer is yet I still wanted to scream at the end. She certainly knows how to keep a reader hanging and desperately seeking the next book. If you read my review of Chasing the Night and Eve you know that despite not having read all of the Eve Duncan books from the beginning I am still in love with this series. Eve and Catherine Ling are both such strong female characters and you can't help but bond with them and fall in love with them. I admit I was not a huge Joe fan and preferred John Gallo so I did not rush out to get Quinn when it was released. Big mistake!I loved that this book takes you back to when Joe first meets Eve and how he ends up falling for her. Having that background and seeing more of the type of guy he is made me actually like him a lot more. So now I feel like I can accept him more and really root for he and Eve to make it through together.The action is pretty non-stop throughout the book and there are a lot of twists and turns. My only complaint is the attraction between Catherine and John. Like I mention above I love both characters and actually think they would work really well together BUT I wish in the past books there wasn't the exploration of Catherine and Joe's feelings for each other and the possibility of them falling for each other if it weren't for Eve. Because of that and now the attraction with John it almost seems a little creepy that Christine always seems to end up having a thing for the guys Eve was in love with. Maybe that is supposed to emphasize how alike the two women are but it just didn't work for me. Still I loved this book and cannot wait to start reading Bonnie!
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Johansen's fast moving prose initially offsets the melodrama. The melodrama then becomes tedious and you begin to wonder why she is dragging it out. You find out at the end, that she has no intention of pleasing her readers and only wants to sell another book. There is absolutely no reason to read this book. Even if you are a fan of the 'Eve Duncan' continuing story, this book offers absolutely nothing to the story line.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Quinn is the second of Iris Johansen’s trilogy about Eve’s search for her daughter Bonnie and it is full of hard hitting action and a thriller that you’ll not soon forget. In this story we learn about Joe Quinn right from the moment he met Eve after the disappearance of Bonnie, she takes you deep into the psyche of a distraught woman fighting between hope and despair that her daughter would still be found alive and knowing it’s unlikely. She also gives us clues to the mystery and brings us ever closer to the final detail that will solve this crime and she shows us how one of the greatest love stories on paper began and was nurtured to the extent we see it today. She does this with her no-nonsense dialogue filled with emotion that her readers will feel from the wrecked Eve to the determined Joe and all the other characters as well. Her characters are old friends to many of us, so much so that we have formed a sotto friendship with them, but have no fear if this is your first foray into this series she also gives you enough background to feel secure in your knowledge. Her main protagonists Eve and Joe are enigmatic and complicated people who through all the trials in their life together have grown into a life-force that no one can break and the romance although far from new still grows in depths that many of her fans will aspire to.So come along on this second journey to finally find the answers behind Bonnie Duncan’s disappearance learn along with all her fans what really happened and know that in just a few months with the release of Bonnie we will finally have all the answers. Even though this reads well on it’s own, I suggest that you read Eve first where the author tells us the story behind Eve Duncan, where she came from and how she got to be the woman she is today, then go back even farther and start the whole series you won’t be sorry you did.
