Advantages: 7 Star Trek Episodes with Jean Luc Picard

I was thrilled to get this box set from my young lady for my birthday.

Review of Star Trek - Jean Luc Picard (DVD)

No time for goodbye - A real page turner

Advantages: A real page turner and an excellent read
Disadvantages: A bit drawn out in places.

find that her entire family; mum Patricia, Dad Clayton and older brother Todd, have disappeared without a trace leaving no note or any indication as to where they may have gone or what has happened to them; posing the question ? are they dead or are they alive, were they the victims of a serial killer, or did they just want to punish their daughter for her behaviour. 25 years later and there are still no answers, Cynthia now Cynthia Archer is a grown woman with her own family, a loving husband Terry and a daughter Grace who she seems to smother with her over-protectiveness, but her past still haunts her after all these years.

Review of No Time for Goodbye - Linwood Barclay

No Time For Goodbye - A real page-turner!

Advantages: Enjoyable, fast-paced
Disadvantages: None

14 year old Cynthia Bigge wakes up the morning after an argument with her parents to find no trace of them, or her older brother. No Time For Goodbye centres around this mystery. Set 25 years after the disappearance of the Bigge family and told through the eyes of Terry, Cynthia's husband, the book starts with Cynthia no closer to solving the mystery of her family's disappearance...But that's all set to change. Despite a slow start, once No Time For Goodbye got going, I could hardly put it down. Barclay has crafted an intriguing mystery with many twists along the way. Right up until the end you're never quite sure just what exactly is going on. Well written action sequences provide excitement, while the central mystery ensures you pay attention throughout the book for any clues about the why the family seems to have vanished ...
