A great sequel to the first book! I stayed up waaaay late to finish it, but couldn't wait til the end to get online and order other books in the series! It is so much fun to discover a new author -- and to have access to lots of books in the series!

LOVE ALEX KAVA*** LOVE HER MAGGIE O'DELL CHARACTER** I am hoping to see more books from this very special author. She is GOOOOOD. Then plot is great, as are the characters. It's easy to get hooked and then start searching for more of her work. HINT: Just read one, any one, of her boooks - and you will be searching for more as well.

When Serial Killer Albert Stuckey was finally put in prison, FBI Special Agent Maggie O'Dell breathed a sigh of relief. But it was only a few months later that Stuckey escaped from prison. Maggie is an expert profiler who knows Stuckey like the back of her hand. She is the one person who knows Stuckey's patterns, knows the way he thinks. As Maggie works with Special Agent R.J. Tully, they realize that the latest victims all have one thing in common...they have all been in contact with Maggie within a few hours of their death.

This is the second book in Kava's Maggie O'Dell series. I liked this story better than the first in the series. We know that the killer is watching Maggie closely. He knows exactly where she is at all times. It gave me a creepy feeling to think about someone being stalked but having no knowledge of where that person is hiding.

I liked many of the new characters that were introduced in this book, especially R.J. Tully and Tess McGowan. But I thought Maggie's continuous paranoia and inner thoughts were monotonous. My rating: 4 Stars.

Very good book, however, it is about 100 pages too long. I had to skip and skim some of it just because it has too many pages with too much description. The story is very good but it is overdone with too much explanation and descriptions of everything.

I've already read all her other books and found this one on my shelf so I think for a second book she just got carried away with too many words.
