This is another book that had me hooked from the first chapter. I love a good serial killer story, even if its fiction (you may wonder what's wrong with me), although he doesn't play a huge role in this story. An action packed story about an FBI agent working a case about a father pedophile, a local cop working a murder and then the death of the FBI agents best friend.
Kendall Beck is an FBI agent who lives with her best friend, Gwen. Gwen owns and helps run a local restaurant with her fiancé Ty. While Kendall is working the molestation case, Gwen goes missing one weekend and Kendall has alarm bells going off inside and knows that something isn't right. At the same time, a local cop, Adam Taylor, is working a murder/body dump case and starts to realize that they might be connected to a string of serial murders in the area. As the cases progress, the pedophile, the murder of her best friend and the serial murders, a killer comes into focus and its pulse pounding action to see if they'll catch their man before he escapes or kills again.
I really liked this story. I felt all three cases were tied together in a believable way. The descriptions of the crimes were intense but I'm used to reading things like that as I like to read true serial murder cases but if that's something you don't like then I would skip this story. The characters are well thought out and have rich backgrounds with potential for future showings. The ending was all wrapped up although I felt a hint that maybe The Reaper, as the serial killer has been dubbed in this book, may still be out there, I'm not sure if this is a book series or not but I would definitely read more from this author and would like to see more stories involving Kendall in the future. I received this book free from NetGallery for an honest review.
