Evil at Heart is the third novel by Chelsea Cain about Gretchen Lowell, a female serial killer. I've read the first two books as well, and just like the others, this one was nice to read. The writing style ant the story are very fast and there is a lot of suspense in the story. The relationship b...
Evil at Heart, the third of the Gretchen Lowell/Archie Sheridan thrillers, picks up just months after the end of Sweetheart. Gretchen Lowell, the Beauty Killer, is still at large, and Archie has voluntarily committed himself to a psychiatric institute which he doesn't care to leave. The Beauty Kille...
This is the third Archie/Gretchen novel by Chelsea Cain that I have read. It seems that each one drops by half a star. This time, we do not focus on their relationship so I was a bit let down. The change in storyline is initially offputting even though it is still very well written.After my initi...
Gretchen Lowell is still on the loose and Archie Sheridan is still looking for her. But is he looking for her as a cop, or as a lover?

Evil at Heart misses on many levels. Gretchen Lowell barely shows up, Archie Sheridan descends from tragic to path...
I liked this book SO MUCH Better than the last one, even though I think that overall the story is much weaker. But there was less Gretchen, which I was glad of, and I was happy at the distance that Archie is starting to make for himself.I think it was weak that Gretchen was, AGAIN, connected to thi...
Classic Gretchen and Archie with an extra helping of Susan!! A bit more twisted, but alot more fantastic!!! Can't wait for the next one...I swear these two are better than Clarise and Hannibal!!!
Disturbing. But probably very close to reality in the way that she portrays the public's view of a serial killer, the media's obsession with news that isn't really news and how it affects people. I actually found the sub-plot about the media and public spectacle about Gretchen more intriguing than...
Much as I enjoyed the first two books, this one kinda (okay seriously) squicked me out in places--almost as if the author felt she HAD to push the squick-o-meter -- by design or because she was forced. And like in her first two novels, Cain can't quite make the secondary storyline come together (or...
