The Target: An FBI Thriller, Book 3

By: Catherine Coulter

Narrated by: Sharon Williams

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.

Critic reviews

"Coulter, who doesn't stint on humor or romance, keeps readers guessing." ( Booklist)
"A blend of romance, mystery, and excitement." ( Fort Worth Daily Sun)

Interesting twists and turns

Enjoyed the book on a long drive. Always love Dylan and Sherlock we're understated in this book. Great narration.

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!

Really good

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

Child abduction revenge

There were parts of the story I couldn’t get into. The romance didn’t really seem to be there. It was difficult for me to understand whether Ramsey had any feelings for Molly. He just seemed to want to keep Emma in his life. That detracted from the overall story for me.

On Target!!

Fast paced. Great narration and a great story. I have enjoyed this series Dillon and Sherlock pluse one now! What great characters

2nd time around

I absolutely love Catherine Coulter!! This is the second time to read this series,and it is just as good!!! Love that they keep bringing Sherlock and Savage back!!

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.
