The Night Stalker by Robert Bryndza
5.0

This is my second Erika Foster book, and I'm hooked.

Erika could be described somewhat as a female Harry Bosch. She's like a dog with a bone and puts 100% into the case she's working on, even when she's ordered to stand down. She's good, but her unpredictability doesn't always go over well with the higher-ups, and that fact doesn't go over well with her. I think she's unfairly treated, much like Bosch.

In this one, she should have been hailed as a hero on at least two different fronts, but was instead just grudgingly acknowledged by those above her, although those below her are always supportive. That's what makes the story interesting.

Erika is a bit of a loner, but she cares about others, sometimes even the law breakers. She even understands and feels sympathy for the serial killer and accomplice in this book.
