AMAZING! Ex-FBI agent Sloane Burbank is involved in a missing persons investigation that instantly becomes a multiple case investigation involving the FBI and her old boyfriend, Derek Parker. Though a relationship is inevitable, the sexual tension is intense. Their past relationship plays a big part in their interaction during these connected cases. They are both stubborn, always right and very strong-willed. I really enjoyed the interplay between them.

The serial rapist killer is truly a wack-job and keeps all the profilers guessing. His fixation with Greek mythology is fascinating. Who would have thought a serial killer could be so intellectual. It was really kind of freaky and scary when you think about it.

The way Andrea Kane mixes up the clues and misdirects the reader keeps you guessing and turning pages fast enough for paper cuts.

This was a really good book. I was a little nervous when I saw the index and flow chart in the beginning, BUT she included those things only if you were really interested in how the FBI was structured and if you were confused as to what some of the acronyms were for, I didn't refer to it at all.

There was a side story in the beginning (about gangs, serial killings) and throughout that got me a little confused, but it ended up making more sense in the middle. It was a little hard to get into this book but really a good read overall. And she is a great author.

A great book. I could not put it down. Not too many surprises, but it was interesting to find out who the killer was. Overall five stars.

Not just anyone could gain access to the FBI's top-secret Quantico facility but best-selling author Andrea Kane could and did. When you read Twisted, you'll believe you're there with her every fascinating, grueling, shocking step of the way.

Dare you to put this book down after reading the following opener: "She was a true warrior. Even the weapon hadn't been enough to make her submit. Not like the others. Not until she'd felt the prick of the blade, sensed drops of her own blood........"

From the start we know that Kane has created one of the most frightening psychopaths of recent memory. Who is he? Why is he committing this heinous act? Will there be another?

To answer these questions Kane introduces Sloane Burbank, a former FBI agent. She left the Bureau to work as a negotiator after a stab wound deprived her of the use of one hand. Although her current schedule is packed Sloane immediately responds when she receives a call from the parents of a childhood friend, Penny Truman, who went missing some time ago. Penny's father is a renowned cardiologist, so he would have been prime for extortion but no such attempt was ever made.

Sloane's ex partner in the Cleveland office and former lover, Derek Parker, is the FBI agent in charge of Penny's case. He's busy elsewhere hoping to catch a man, Chen, also known as "Little Dragon." Three women have been slain in a similar manner - the only clue is that they all worked at Fukienese brothels which has been linked to Chen. Derek considers Penny's disappearance a nowhere to go case.

Nonetheless, Sloane prevails upon him to help her ( thus author Kane can show her skill at describing unresolved feelings between the two of them).

It soon becomes clear that Penny's disappearance may have been due to the machinations of the same killer responsible for the deaths of the prostitutes. As some of the pieces of the puzzle begin to fit it appears that Sloane is to be the next victim.

With traces of romance and an intriguing plot reinforced by assiduous research Kane has fashioned a chilling can't-put-down thriller.
