Book Review- The Hypnotist by M.J. Rose

Title: The Hypnotist
Author: M.J. Rose
Publisher: Mira
Published: May 1, 2010
Summary:  "Haunted by a twenty-year old murder of a beautiful young painter, Lucian Glass keeps his demons at bay through his fascinating work as a Special Agent with the FBI's Art Crime Team. Currently investigating a crazed art collector who has begun destroying prized masterworks, Glass is thrust into a bizarre hostage negotiation that takes him undercover at the Phoenix Foundation—dedicated to the science of past life study—where, in order to maintain his cover, he agrees to submit to the treatment of a hypnotist.


Under hypnosis, Glass travels from ancient Greece to 19th century Persia, while the case takes him from New York to Paris and the movie capital of world. These journeys will change his very understanding of reality, lead him to question his own sanity and land him at the center of perhaps the most audacious art heist in history: the theft of a 1,500 year old sculpture from the Metropolitan Museum of Art."

WOW!!  I have to go back and read the first 2 books in this series.  This book can be read if you haven't read the 2 previous but M.J. Rose is so awesome you will want to start at the begining.

Lucian Glass has a great job with the FBI, as an Art Crime Team agent but all he thinks about is the muder of his love, who he was unable to save.  He is in Vienna to arrest a Doctor who, he thinks has stolen valuble art.  But after finding himself much more personally invovled in the crime he is investigating, he agrees to let himself be hypnotized.  WOW I don't want to say much more because this is a very suspenseful novel with lots of twists and turns!!  BUT it is definitely a must read. Warning: Make sure you don't start this book when you have other more pressing things to do because you will not want to put this book down!!! Rate: Photobucket

  1. Your review is pretty convincing, I googled MJ Rose's name and found her website. Then bought The Reincartionist (Book1) from amazon :)

    Thanks for sharing!
