Product Description
The heat is killer in Cochise County, Arizona and in the suffocating stillness of an airless trailer, a woman is lying dead, a bullet hole in her chest. Who would murder a harmless loner and why did the killer use an eighty-five-year-old bullet, fired from the same weapon that slaughtered two other women? The slayings are as oppressive as the blistering heat for Sheriff Joanna Brady, who must shoulder the double burden of a brutal reelection campaign and major developments on the home front. Joanna must now deal with the terrifying reality that now threatens everyone in her jurisdiction: a serial killer is in their midst. As personal and professional pressure mounts, Sheriff Brady must pursue a sadistic murderer into the shadows of the past to get to the roots of a monstrous obsession...and expose the permanent wounds of a crime far worse than homicide.

 Ancient Wounds September 14, 2008
EXIT WOUNDS again has Joanna Brady's capable hands full with perhaps a serial killer and an election campaign. Her opponents pull nasty stunts, but Joanna and her friends/family fight back.
Arizona temperatures soar above 100 degrees and caught in the vicious aftermath of a savage killing are the animals that have been befriended by murder victim, Carol Mossman. They are left to die by suffocation in the victim's metal trailer.
Interwoven in this engaging tale is J.A. Jance's love of dogs and it comes as no surprise when Joanna's family add a few more dogs. The sheriff must put all side issues away as she hunts for a murder who has killed three times with an 85 year-old bullet.
A excellent addition to the fine series.

What a fantastic book! I picked up this gem from the airport in Chicago on the way to a four hour flight to Vancouver. Almost instantly after realizing the preview on the back of the book was not only slightly misleading, but was basically also the entire plot I felt like drowning myself in the bathroom toilet of the airplane. I fear it may have been for the best too, but I couldn't follow through. The psychological boredom from reading this can never be reversed. There are a lot of other painful things, like Russian Roulette, I'd rather do before ever reading this piece of utter trash again.
I really gave it a shot too, I read it cover to cover, I really was waiting for that moment where the book would become intelligent, something other than a completely predictable plot that I couldn't care less about.
Anyone who enjoys bad Lifetime movies about abusive fathers or any other cliche plot you can throw at them you may find this book almost good. I must say I was sickened to see that this has anything above a two star rating on Amazon. My only thought is that these are the same people who like to watch things like Two Girls, One Cup and the BME Pain Olympics.
Amazon, I plead with you. Since you probably can't end world hunger please do the next best thing and discontinue sale of the biggest pile of trash I have ever had the pleasure of reading. If other sellers decide they're going to try and get in on the action of selling this book anyway remove their fingers and feed them to their children. No one should ever have to be put through the mental anguish inflicted by Exit Wounds.
Joanna Brady series June 1, 2008
I am so enchanted by Joanna Brady as County Sheriff. The mysteries are very satisfying. I often was surprised by the endings in this series. I can't wait for more of Joanna.

Over the years, I've read quite a few of Jance's novels, and I really like her writing style. Her character development is strong, and her language is easy to read.......her use of imagery has none of the "imagery gone wild" approach that some authors seem to embrace.
This book and its Southern Arizona setting is particularly appealing to me, and will be to any readers familiar with the area or who is interested in the Southwest.
The earlier criticism of a reviewer who felt her female characters were too strong and the males too compliant and weak, is hard to understand. I felt almost the opposite, that Joanna maintained a remarkable degree of femininity given her job as Sheriff, and her male "support staff" which included her husband, seemed very male and secure in their maleness. They all exhibited that small town warmth and comraderie that is part of the charm of the Southwest, and lots of small towns everywhere.
J A Jance never disappoints.
