Part of the "Irene Kelly" series. This is a great series, I've only read about 4 or 5 of the books, but they are hard to put down. The characters are wonderful and truly fleshed out, no stereotypes. Full of action and suspense.

Third in series.

A less cryptic message is sent when a body turns up the next morning. As more letters roll in, the death toll mounts...and Irene fears that her mysterious pen pal has cast her in his own private Greek tragedy as Cassandra, the seer whom others refused to believe. It's the killer's dream to challenge Irene to follow his ancient blueprint for murder. It's his ultimate desire to make her face the inevitable -- that she is the next to die."
Irene Kelly, a reporter, starts getting strange letters with a Greek tradedy theme and feels like the killer is trying to challenge Irene to follow his blue print to murder. He wants her to face the fact she will e the next to die.
