Cameryn is being stalked by her old boyfriend, killer Kyle O'Neil. The local cops, especially Justin, are keeping a close eye on her. But no one realizes just how close Kyle is getting until Cameryn finds the body of Leather Ed.
Next to Ed's body is a note left just for Cameryn. The house is a mess, but the note has been left out in plain sight for anyone to find. The note calls Cameryn his soul mate and that he will love her until her dying breath. This does not sound good at all.
From that point on, it seems like Kyle is one step ahead of everyone. When two famous people are found dead in a restaurant, the case gets even more bizarre. Dr. Moore, the cranky pathologist, calls Cameryn in to assist with the autopsies. He's discovered something in their lungs he's never encountered before. With a cryptic clue left by Kyle, Cameryn won't quit until she can figure out the clue and tie Leather Ed's death with the other two dead people.
All the while, Kyle keeps trying to contact Cameryn, and Justin keeps trying to protect her. Cameryn is finally willing to let Justin into her heart a little further, but life keeps getting in the way.
THE DYING BREATH does not fail to capture the reader's attention. Keeping up with events from past stories, Cameryn develops into a determined young woman unwilling to give in to the fear Kyle is trying to promote. With a hint more romance in this novel, there is truly something for everyone: suspense, intrigue, romance, and yes, even a little gore (What did you expect? It's a novel about forensics!). The pages will fly by, and the ending will leave you breathless.
