While I somewhat liked this book, and the storyline was pretty good, all-in-all, I found myself getting irritated with our sex therapist heroine, Dr. Morgan Snow. The author gives the reader obvious clues (e.g., a man hidden in the shadows, following Cleo Thane), but Dr. Snow amazingly "forgets" this important piece of information that, at the time, supposedly has her so concerned and worried for Cleo. I'm not sure if Dr. Snow is really that dumb or the author is when trying to slip the reader clues. The details of the murders, etc., was well written, but personally, I could have done without the romantic bullcrap between Dr. Snow and the homocide detective, Noah Jordain. What's the point, other than to gussey up and try to attract female readers? I read murder mysteries and police procedurals for the thrill and challenge, and if I wanted romance, I'd read a romance novel. Not sure I'll waste my time with this author again, as she seems to be more of a novice. There are too many other, more highly-evolved murder-mystery novelists out there. Still, if you don't like something too deep and go for a lighter mystery, you may like this book.
