"...helplessness, fear, loathing, disgust, rage." These are the emotions that are tormenting DI Kim Stone as she faces the most personal case of her career. There is a killer targeting her by murdering innocent people -- recreating some of the most traumatic events of Kim's life and the end game must be Kim's death. As she and the team -- Bryant, Stacey and Penn -- try to figure out who is behind it, Kim is being monitored by profiler and behaviorist, Alison Lowe. Can she find the person who hates her so much and prevent the worst outcome possible? NO SPOILERS.
This book was simply amazing and just what I needed to overcome a bit of a reading slump. As the 10th in a long-running series, opening the pages was just like going to a family reunion or hanging out with old friends. I love the way Angela Marsons writes and I tore through it in a couple of hours, barely leaving my chair. It's part police procedural and crime thriller, but also a character study as the reader learns more about DI Kim Stone and comes to appreciate her personality and her work methods. I love this series and I can't wait for the next -- keep them coming, please! If you haven't yet discovered this set, please do yourself a favor and start at the beginning and read in order for full appreciation.
I'm one satisfied reader and would like to thank NetGalley and Bookouture for the e-book ARC to read and review.
