by Karen Rose
I’m a big fan of Ms. Rose and as far as KR fare goes, this doesn’t disappoint. It holds her usual cocktail of chilling, thrilling suspense, wickedly insane serial killer, dark pasts, deep-buried secrets, traumatic upbringings, and a side-dish of hot romance.

This is a fast moving mystery from Karen Rose. There is some strong action, an evil bad guy, a really fascinating detective & his partner, and the female lead - Lucy is a tough woman.
