I remember really liking the first book when I read it years ago, but I don't know what happened here. The mystery is overcomplicated and weak, the characters are grating (yes, Mia, your sister died, it's very sad, but we GET it already), and apparently "this crime scene covered in occult symbols might be related to the occult" is the kind of brilliant insight that only a genius profiler could come up with. Bleh.
