Publisher's summary

Hoping to escape unwanted celebrity in the aftermath of a notorious incident, Ramsey Hunt settles in the Rockies, determined to bury himself in the safety of a solitary existence. But his isolation is shattered when he stumbles upon a small girl unconscious in the high-altitude forest.

When strangers pursue Ramsey to his private meadow in an attempt to kill him and the girl, he's mystified that anyone would wish her harm. And the child can't shed any light on the subject: she's mute.

Molly Santera, the girl's mother, catches up with Ramsey and her daughter, mistaking her daughter's savior for a kidnapper. But soon Ramsey's real role becomes clear. With the strangers in pursuit, the trio flees to Chicago for sanctuary. Even there, however, the child's enemies prove as relentless as their motives are baffling.

With an unexpected assist from FBI agents Dillon Savich and Lacey Sherlock (last seen in The Maze), Molly and Ramsey begin to unravel the clues, and in the process they make an astonishing discovery as to the true nature of the target.

Listen to another FBI Thriller.

so what if Emma was a target? Too slow

Basically good characters, liked Ramsey, and Emma is adorable and really smart, and Molly is cute...but so what.?...so dragged out, couldn't wait for something to happen...everyone seems to be waiting....and end is just too predictable!

The Target

Love this series and that is why this is a revisit for me this time in audio form. Judge Ramsey Hunt is on vacation in the Colorado Rockies after an event in his courtroom that left him needing to get away for a while. He comes across an abused little girl who is obviously traumatized but he takes her in but when her mother shows up sporting a gun right after they had been shot at and Ramsey hurt. Good thing Emma comes out of her stupor and talks to call off her mother or she may have shot Ramsey. The three of them set off across country while being chased and hunted. So many twists and turns and thrills make up this story. Great narrator!

I enjoy most of her work. This one I liked more than most. A little sappy but good.

Enjoyed

The Target was a great story. It got a bit long in some parts but all in all the story line was great. There was suspense, romance, character building and a semi-surprise ending. Although not my favorite in the series, I would not bypass it.

The Diabolical Father

As usual I cant stop listening to these thrillers. I just love the plot and the characters and Especially the sweet little girl that stole her hero's heart. It kept me on the edge of my seat. I just love the Savages in your books. Your characters are so real to me.

A Fun Ride

I’ve always enjoyed Catherine Coulter books, and this one was no exception! Her characters are fun, and for me personally, I feel like she draws you in to the lives of the characters so well and in such a subtle way, that pretty soon you find yourself interjected and part of the story yourself!
Personally I could do without the graphic sex scenes, that are so unbelievably redundant and I would think that would be obvious to all authors, but apparently not because they keep filling up good story space with ridiculous details that nobody wants to hear about over and over!
It’s kind of like “Been there, done that, bought the T-Shirt”, now let’s move on and start using your God given creativity and talent on some captivating scenes, not the Monday morning newsflash: that yet once again, the characters are going at it again, hurry it up and get back to the story PPPLLEASSE!!
Other than the ridiculously overdone sex scenes, which is truly just the author in a block, so they fill it with that! No thanks. Start showing your true talents! But other than that I do enjoy her books and this one was fun! Thank you
