Summary: The ending failed...
Comment: This could be a really great suspense novel given the topic and newsroom setting. However, like another reviewer mentioned, there were way too many characters (suspects, of course) to keep up with and almost every page is its own chapter. It feels like a lot of stopping and starting as you read, keeping transitions from being smooth. In addition, which I am starting to see a definite trend when it comes to MJC's novels, she wraps them up way too quickly. There was nothing (no hints, real clues, etc.) to lead the reader to discover the "bad guy" on his own. We found out whodunit when MJC gave us an almost laughable clue in the last few pages of the book.
For the reader that prefers mystery stories with solid structure, a steady stream of real clues and a sensible, smart ending, I'd go elsewhere for fulfillment.

Summary: Not her best effort
Comment: Nowhere To Run was a decent read, however I was disappointed in it as there were so many characters in this book. It was difficult to keep up with who was who and only one or two of the characters were very well developed. It was still a page turner though and the topic of anthrax was very interesting.

Summary: MJC has done it again!!
Comment: A co-worker was the first to introduced me to Mary Jane Clark. Then I heard she's the granddaughter of Mary Higgins Clark, which convinced me to read all of MJC's books. I have to say, I wasn't disappointed with Nowhere to Run. It's fast reading with short chapters. The plot twists and turns and you won't believe who the killer is.
