Product Description:
The first time Russ went into the bedroom, he missed the rose and the note. His back was to the bed when he stripped off his clothes and hung them in the closet. When fifteen more minutes passed without Vicky, Russ went back into the bedroom to phone her best friend. That was when he saw the note on the pillow on the immaculately made bed. There was a black rose lying across the plain, white paper. Written in a careful hand were the words 'Gone, But Not Forgotten.'

Rating:  - Gone, But Not Forgotten
"Gone, But Not Forgotten" are the words on a note written on plain white paper and left, along with one black rose, on the pillow of four women over a period of a few months in a small upstate New York town, each the wife of a successful businessman. Horribly mutilated bodies are eventually found. When his wife and daughter are found murdered, Peter Lake is suspected of the killings and the earlier crimes. Ultimately another man was arrested, but that man was killed at the scene of the arrest ... Read More
Rating:  - What Has Become of the American Reader?
Gone But Not Forgotten has more plot holes than a sieve. The characters do either stupid or unlikely things. The courtroom and police procedures seem contrived and illogical. The prose is simply mass-produced palaver.
Perhaps inspired by the sadistic scenes in the book, I forced myself to finish this painful experience. Ouch!
Why does such tripe appear on the bestseller's list? Has the American reader become this formulaic and unsophisticated?
Rating: - You forget the crowd while reading
I read this kind of books while commuting with the train to the office.
The book was recommended in the Dutch list of best thrillers. It was worth every penny. Many times I forgot the crowd in the train while reading this book. Especially the telling of the way the main suspect was thinking about life and women was gripping. Also the turning in plots made you forget the leave the train in time.
Rating: - Phillip Margolin---author
I just discovered this author a few months back. His books are interesting and fast paced. You won't be able to put his books down until the end!
Rating:  - Gone, But Not Forgotten By Phillip Margolin
Most sadistic and upsetting book I have ever read in so many years, 25 +. Never passed 40 pages. Pure evil towards human beings. I bought it new (2 stories, CostCo, any kid can pick it up and buy it, both bestselling, both the same scheme and disgusting, I checked the contents and some samples) and then threw it into the garbage (no recycling, someone might pick it up and read it), because my conscience does not allow me to pass it on to any sane person I know of or even sell it at a garage sale feeling ...
