I did not enjoy this one as much as the previous 2 but I did like it.
The characters, the plot were all good. There was a good balance of the romance and suspense. I did figure out the whodunit easily in this one, but it was still good. This one seemed to be more about the torn feelings the characters had about what was going on rather than the focus of thinking who was responsible.

"I Know Their Crimes. Star prosecutor Kristen Mayhew has a dangerous secret admirer. He seems to know her every thought, her every move. He sends her letters. And he kills the criminals she herself is powerless to stop. I Hunt Down the Guilty. This avenger even knows Kristen's deepest secret-the one that has kept her from surrendering her heart to Abe Reagan, the police detective sworn to protect her. Like Kristen, Reagan is haunted by the loss of something precious that can never be regained. But in the shadow of a calculating serial killer, the two turn to each other and dare to rediscover passion...even as the messages and vicious murders continue. Even as the killer's thirst for retribution makes Kristen a target for murder." (From Amazon)
I love both Kristen and Abe and am so glad they came together. His family and background were just what Kristen needed. Their chemistry was great that you root for the two of them to get together. But the best thing about Karen Rose's novels is her ability to write villains and create crazy suspense. I have to start her novels on a day where I know I have a few hours to read or can go without some sleep. Also loved Mia in this book and her getting used to her new partner, Abe.

Synopsis
ASA Kristen Mayhew has a dangerous secret admirer. He writes her letters and leaves her gifts - the bodies of men who have escaped punishment for their crimes. Now, Kristen together with Detective Abe Reagan must follow the clues and stop the killer before his thirst for vengeance makes her a target for murder.
Review
Captivating characters and a gripping plot that makes a serious indictment against the justice system.
The story provides compelling insight into the mind of a man driven to kill out of a need for justice - even though he is a killer, it is difficult not to understand and perhaps even root for his actions. The questions of good and evil, right and wrong are put to the test in this book.
Even though it is easy to guess the identity of the culprit, the investigation is interesting and their are enough clues and red-herrings to keep you turning the pages.
The romance is engaging although there are one or two themes that don't appeal to me - the hero is a widower and is still hung up on his dead wife to a certain extent, and the heroine is a rape survivor. Nevertheless, they have a sizzling chemistry and their scenes together are intense and emotional.
Overall, an engrossing read and Karen Rose is becoming a go to author for me.

Another fantastic book by Karen Rose, an amazingly good storyline and a fantastic ending. Would never have guessed the killer, kept me in suspense the whole time. Highly recommend x
