The plot took some time to build up to a quick end. Disappointing...

Giving this 2 stars may be generous. This is so cliched with all the usual spy innuendo. Her husband isn't who she thought he was, she sets off to uncover the truth, etc. What was most unbelievable was that she was able to find and connect with spies that had been in hiding for years and somehow she had skill that would make James Bond proud.

i can't believe tess gerritsen actually wrote this,what a mess...

I’m a big Tess Gerritsen fan, and I’m always happy to dive into more of the author’s work. In the wait between new releases, I like to work on the author’s backlist. With Call After Midnight, we have one of Gerritsen’s earliest works.

Call After Midnight certainly had me hooked throughout. I was happy to turn the pages, curious as to how the story would play out. Things were predictable, some aspects required the suspension of belief, but it was an addictive read. In many ways, I would label this an easy read.

If you’re a fan of Gerritsen, it’s interesting to read this one to see how she’s grown as an author. If you’re looking for a place to start, Call After Midnight is addictive but it does not show the author at her best.
