Book Description
Forensic investigator Reilly Steel, Quantico-trained and California-born and bred,imagined Dublin to be a far cry from bustling San Francisco, a sleepy backwater where she can lay past ghosts to rest and start anew. She's arrived in Ireland to drag the Irish crime lab into the 21st century, plus keep tabs on her Irish-born father who's increasingly seeking solace in the bottle after a family tragedy. But a brutal serial killer soon puts paid to that. When a young man and woman are found dead in an apartment, the gunshot wounds on their naked bodies suggest a suicide pact. But Reilly's instincts are screaming that something's seriously amiss, and as more bodies are discovered, the team soon realizes that a twisted murder is at work, one who seeks to upset society's norms in the most sickening way imaginable...
My Review
This was a very good debut of the Reilly Steel Series and I enjoyed it very much. I thought the different taboo methods of murder were very clever and the book was a real page turner. The only problem I had with the book was that the ending seemed a little rushed and there is not enough information given to the reader for a chance to solve even part of the mystery. I will continue with the series though because I think the writers are talented.
