My Review:
It doesn't take a detective to figure out that Lynette Eason is a great suspense novelist. With grisly crime scenes, psychotic killers, great cops, and a touch of romance, Eason has come up with a near perfect spine-tingling tale that will appeal to both men and women. What can I say?this series just gets better with each book.
In this, the third installment in the Women of Justice series, we meet Kit Kenyon, a detective and hostage negotiator who's struggling to deal with a past family secret and a new partner on the job. To top it all off she's faced with finding a serial killer whose next target could be her. Following Kit from the very first hostage scene to the last life-threating shootout is pure adrenaline. The chemistry between her and her hunky partner, Noah is undeniable. The pair reminded me a bit of my favorite tv duo, Kate Beckett and Richard Castle with their back and forth flirtation and their uncanny detecting skills! At one point I was a little frustrated at what the detectives didn't do while interrogating a suspect that probably would have led to the killer sooner but still the story was interesting and a real page turner. I did guess the killer right off and there really weren't any red herrings but I enjoyed it none the less.
The verdict is in, this is a must-read. What? I couldn't resist. ;-)
