Patricia Holmes, criminal psychologist has gone through all the rigors of training, and is now a rookie detective. Her partner is DS Rick McCoy ... they've worked two previous cases and found they worked really well together. It doesn't hurt that they are attracted to each other, although they are both married to other people. They are on the hunt for the newest serial killer to hit town, who the media has dubbed the Biblical Killer, so named for the quotes left on the walls written in the victims' blood. Are these random killings .. or ones that are personally selected for their sins? Holmes and McCoy find themselves joining the Tender Nights internet dating site, hoping to lure the killer out into the open. Making themselves targets may be much more dangerous than they think. I have been fortunate is reading the first two books in this series, as well as the 3rd now. It's a great series, with credible story premises and the good cops who put their lives on the line to solve cases and bring closure to families of victims. The characters are finely defined and I enjoy seeing the blend of personal and professional lives. This is well written with action filled pages that leave the reader riveted to the story. Many thanks to the author / The Wild Rose Press, Inc / Netgalley for the digital copy of this crime fiction. Read and reviewed voluntarily, opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.
