When a local girl falls prey to a sadistic serial killer, Nashville Homicide Lieutenant Taylor Jackson and her lover, FBI profiler Dr. John Baldwin, find themselves in a joint investigation pursuing a vicious murderer. The Southern Strangler is slaughtering his way through the Southeast, leaving a gruesome memento at each crime scene--the prior victim's severed hand.
Ambitious TV reporter Whitney Connolly is certain the Southern Strangler is her ticket out of Nashville; she's got a scoop that could break the case. She has no idea how close to this story she really is--or what it will cost her.
As the killer spirals out of control, everyone involved must face a horrible truth--the purest evil is born of private lies.
Review:
This book was a bit of a departure from the contemporary romances I have been ready, but I really enjoyed it nonetheless.
This book takes place in Nashville, where police officer Taylor Jackson and her boyfriend Baldwin are on the track of a serial killer. He has killed 4 young girls, and more are to come. Also, Taylor is tracking a serial rapist named the Rainman.
This was a very well written book that I enjoyed quite a bit. The characters were well written, I like Taylor right from the start, and the other cops she works with had their own personalities and also respected Taylor.
In books like this, I do like to try and guess at who the killer is, but this one had me guessing right up until the end.
My only issue with this book was that I feel the author spent too much time with the Rainman case. I believe that since the book was about the serial killer, more attention should have been paid to that.
Regardless, great book and I will be looking for other books by this author.
