Kaely Quinn's talents as an FBI behavior analyst are impossible to ignore, no matter how unorthodox her methods. But when a reporter outs her as the daughter of an infamous serial killer, she's demoted to field agent and transferred to St. Louis. When the same reporter who ruined her career claims to have received an anonymous poem predicting a string of murders, ending with Kaely's, the reporter's ulterior motives bring his claim into question. But when a body is found that fits the poem's predictions, the threat is undeniable, and the FBI sends Special Agent Noah Hunter to St. Louis.
Initially resentful of the assignment, Noah is surprised at how quickly his respect for Kaely grows, despite her oddities. But with a brazen serial killer who breaks all the normal patterns on the loose, Noah and Kaely are tested to their limits to catch the murderer before anyone else,including Kaely herself us killed.
I am always drawn toward suspenseful novels like this one. But after awhile, it can feel like you are reading the same thing over and over again. But, I am so happy to say that is not the case with Mehl's most recent work. The premise was different. The characters were unique. And I did not predict the twist at the end. At one point I thought I had it all figured out, but I was totally on the wrong track. It was a smart, puzzle of a novel , which I love. I am eagerly waiting for the next installment of the series to come out!
