4.0 out of 5 stars Another great story from a great writer.
Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2007

Alton Gansky is one of those writers you can't classify. One book may be a supernatural thriller, the next a mystery, then a thriller. There's one consistent feature in all his books though: they're interesting. Gansky is a great storyteller who knows how to keep you involved in the story.

"Finder's Fee" is a good book. It hits the ground running and does its best never to slow down. The characters are pretty well-developed and the plot makes sense. At first, I thought this story was going to borrow from his earlier novel "Prodigy", but it kept its own individuality throughout.

I couldn't put this up there as one of the best he's written, but it's a good story. Despite the fact that each of the characters were well written, I still didn't feel much for them or truly understand their motivations. They constantly risked death and the loss of their careers to keep their respective "secrets" quiet. When you finally find out the secrets though, it doesn't really make sense. I was expecting some deep dark shame that could never make it into the world. Instead, we get something that's relatively tame compared to what's on the news today.

I would recommend this novel without reservations, but it's not his best work. Start with one of his JD Stanton or Perry Sachs stories first.

5.0 out of 5 stars Keeps you wondering...

Will the secrets be revealed? Who are these children with lavender eyes? And how are they tied to Luke and Judith's past? And will they find the real Truth before it's too late. The story will keep you turning page after page. You won't want to put it down until you know the whole Truth. The book had a scenario that caused me to think of Angela Hunt's Truth Teller book.

Very good story. Really enjoy Mr Gansky. Many books, when i pause, i never am interested enough to return to them. Not so with Alton Gansky. I try to get back to his story as quickly as i can, but reading my bible, and prayer, come 1st.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Author, horrible AMAZON SERVICE
Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2016

I ordered this book, only to receive the OLDER version rather than the revised version. I was NOT happy with AMAZON. Alton is a superb writer, I have many of his novels and was excited to get his revised version of Finder's Fee. I contacted Amazon, they gave me a credit but they can't find the revised version in print. Also, shipping on books from AMAZON is horrible. They do NOT protect the books at all, the corners tend to be bent or rolled, due to packaging. This is NO fault of the author.
