This is very much the same review as the first book. They are very short novellas that keep you engaged and very fast paced. Really these could of been one book. I have seen them all in one book as a paper back. But being written like this they keep you wanting to read them. Like the other one I love that they remind me of a female version of dexter. This one has a few more heavier themes in it other than the obvious murder being a serial killer but there is mention of child abuse and pedophilia not by the main characters but by other serial killers they are after. If this was a full length novel though I feel the faced paces would feel like the character development was lacking but then again I love how the author has written the mfc because the way she thinks is so clever. It still lacks the romance element as this is very plot based but it is there just not the main to what I’m used to reading. Love it though! If I didn’t have so much on I would of flown through this book being only a 2 hour read.
