About the author
Rebecca York
421 books452 followersRuth Glick (born 1942) is a best-selling author of healthy cookbooks and has also written dozens of romantic suspense romance novels under the pen name Rebecca York.
Ruth earned a B.A. in American Thought and Civilization from George Washington University and an M.A. in American Studies from the University of Maryland. Although she always wanted to become a writer, Glick was convinced that her lack of spelling skills meant that her goal was unattainable. As a stay-at-home mother, she took a community college course to help her choose a career. The course made it very clear that writing was her primary interest. Glick began writing articles for newspapers and magazines, but after several years decided to try writing fiction. Her first book, a kids' science fiction book, was finally purchased by Scholastic Inc..
Since then, Glick has become a highly successful author of over 50 romantic suspense and paranormal novels. Many of her novels are published under the Harlequin Intrigue line, and in June 2003, she became one of the first authors published under Berkley's new Sensation imprint. Before 1997, she often collaborated with Eileen Buckholtz and Kathryn Jenson.
Glick also is a highly regarded author of cookbooks focusing on healthy eating. She sometimes hires trained chefs to test the recipes that she creates, and makes sure that every recipe is tested at least three times before it appears in one of her cookbooks.
Glick is the head of the Columbia Writers Workshop. She and her husband, Norman Glick, live in Columbia, Maryland, where Ruth collects rocks, and enjoys cooking, walking, reading, gardening, travel, and Mozart operas. They have two grown children, Elissa and Ethan, and two grandsons (Jesse and Leo).

Jenny gets involved in the investigation of the murder of one of her best friends, who was stalked by an online serial killer.
The characterization in this book was weak. Jenny was blinded in an accident at 18 and Ben knew her from high school. Her blindness was well described but I felt like the blindness defined her too much. I didn't get a sense for what else there was to her. And aside from being a cop, I have no idea who Ben was either.
The romance failed for me, partly because of the weak characterization and partly because it was of the "I've never felt this way about anyone" variety. (A troublesome romantic premise to begin with, made even worse when my knowledge of the characters is so limited.)
The suspense was hard to swallow. There seemed to be two different killers after Jenny. Given that she's just a blind computer programmer from Boston, that stretches credulity more than I could handle. If there hadn't been so many other problems, I might have read through to the end to see what that was all about but as it was, I couldn't maintain enough interest to read past about the 2/3 point.
