...Judith Woolcock Colombo has composed a murder mystery that will keep you guessing until
the end. The characters that make up NIGHT CRIMES are well developed. We learn their
habits, their fears, their dreams, as well as their traits. Mrs. Colombo has done her
homework into the worlds of police and artists as well, weaving each into the story to
create an aura of spine chilling suspense.

... Eerie, spooky, suspenseful, chilling, and downright scary -- these are
just some of the words that describe this edge-of-your-seat, complex story of murder,
obsession, and insanity. Judith Colombo creates a mood of ever-increasing fear and doom

... A well-developed mystery surrounds
the murders... Shocking plot twists will stun readers, and leave them guessing right up
until the very end. ...a true portrait of obsession and insanity that will shock and scare
readers. Thorough research, both in the depiction of police work, as well as the portrayal
of compulsion and duplicity that a deranged mind will engage in, brings a realism to the
plot.
For a fast-paced,
compelling, truly terrifying story of murder and obsession, I highly recommend NIGHT
CRIMES. Just be sure to leave an extra light on while you read this!

Night Crimes is
as much about love as it is about insanity, as much about psychology as it is about crime.
It's also about soul, self-expression and art.
All that makes it a lot
more than a tense thriller for a lonely night. Still, although no one gets cannibalized in
Night Crimes, in terms of pure terror, this is a novel that will give Silence of
the Lambs a run for its money. ...

Holy cow! There's a new
kid on the block and you'd better beware - Judith Woolcock Colombo is an author to be
reckoned with.
Night Crimes is a compelling roller coaster ride of suspense
and intrigue. The story grips you tight and doesn't let go. Not even within the final
words on the last page of the book. ... (Link to entire review will appear here when it is published. Visit
Scribe & Quill website from my Links Page). ...Night Crimes is a must read, a real
keeper. I haven't read anything this good in a long time. Judith Woolcock Colombo
brings her characters to life - the good, the bad and the ugly. My heart was pounding and
my pulse racing as I tried to read faster. I flipped pages hurriedly trying to find the
answers, and pick out the bad guys, along with Lara and her family. Even as the story
wound down my anticipation still hovered at above average levels. This is such an
excellent story. Don't miss out, it's a real jewel.

review to be published in Scribe & Quill Summer 2001 issue).

In Night
Crimes, Colombo has crafted a suspense-charged mystery filled with the
intriguing characters of a unique and original vision. But it is the element of the
surreal that raises Night Crimes to the realm of high art and
reveals Colombo's considerable powers as a writer.

Night Crimes
