Product Description
The number-one blockbuster bestselling author delivers her most explosive and compelling novel yet, in which a woman must unlock the secrets of her own mind before she loses her life.
She has a gift of unspeakable power. . . .
He must control her or destroy her. . . .
For as long as she can remember, successful young physician Megan Blair has tried to silence the voices in her head---voices that bring her to the edge of madness and terror. Megan possesses psychic powers that have been dormant for years, hidden deep in the past she’s tried so desperately to forget. But now everything has come to a boiling point---someone is trying to kill her, and others are trying to use her, including the deadly and seductive Neal Grady. Shocking secrets about her life and her mother’s death bombard her as she fights to take control of her heritage and save herself and everything she believes in. Grady holds the key to understanding her future, a future in which Megan’s life will never be the same.
If she survives to have a future.
A fast-paced thrill ride, Pandora’s Daughter is Iris Johansen as you’ve never read her before.

 Mint Condition October 7, 2008
The cover and the book itself was pristine -- the perfect addition to my IJ suspense collection. Thanks.
 Interesting Departure September 28, 2008
Best selling author Iris Johansen takes a new direction in Pandora's Daughter, lending her proven storytelling skills to the paranormal. Megan Blair, a successful doctor, has learned to ignore the voices in her head--voices that have been there since she was a little girl. But it seems that the voices are a symptom of a far greater power that some wish to destroy her for, a power she didn't even know she had until someone tried to kill her. Only then did her protectors come out of the shadows and tell her what she might be and the truth about her mother's death years ago. This story is fast paced, intense and difficult to pull away from with an ending that will make the reader long for a sequel.
Very Good September 25, 2008

------
This was a little better than the previous Johansen books I read, it sticks to the normal formula but the characters are a little more fleshed out and the story moves fast. The only other thing I can say is that if you have read any other "supernatual romance/mystery/action" novel you read this one to. Only the names and faces change... Not to say that this isn't it a good read it's just in the vein of everything else. If you like the themes in this book you also might want to take a look at Virtually His by Gennita Low it deals with the same kind of relationship Grady has with Megan only in that book it focus on far seeing.
Would recommned this book to anyone who likes thrillers/action books with a little paranormal/physic element thrown in.

 Not Johansen quality July 25, 2008
This novel missed the mark of an Iris Johansen story. I gave it two stars because Johansen is one of my favorite authors and one star is reserved for "stinkers". The "strong woman" concept simply came off as rude (Megan), and then she doubled the rude (Renata). I have tried very hard to wade through this book and it's tough going. I have read most of Johansen's books, including the Wind Dancer series, so based on prior knowledge this book is a sad disappointment. I probably will not give "Quicksand", the next Eve Duncan-Megan book, a look.
