The Killer in Me by Olivia Kiernan
4.0
The Killer in Me is the second novel in the Frankie Sheehan series by Olivia Kiernan. This story revolves around a set of connected homicides. The first is double homicide staged in the local church. Then a few days later a third body is found on the beach. While three homicides is a lot to begin with, Frankie has also been asked by her boss and her defense lawyer sister-in-law to look into a 17 year old family murder. The boy who went away for the crime has been released and is trying to get his conviction overturned.
The story weaves both personal and professional very well. The best thing about the novel is that Kiernan keeps you guessing until the end who the murder is. Even though this is the second novel in a series the stories are completely disconnected and do not require you to have read the first one. I would definitely suggest this one to any reader of police procedurals.
