A review by bookspokenly
Original Sins by Erin Young
4.0
If you enjoy police and FBI procedurals, this is definitely one to add to your list because it was excellent. The procedural aspect was not overdone, but rather it just flowed as a great thriller/mystery with enjoyable characters.
Newly minted FBI agent Riley Fisher’s first assignment is the investigation of threats against the first female governor of Iowa. Simultaneously, the state is dealing with the return of a brutal serial killer who targets women known as the Sin Eater. Is it possible that the Sin Eater is connected in some way to the threats against the governor?
If you are a fan of serial killer fiction, this is not one to miss. It is unique and even as you start to figure out what is going on, I promise, you will not figure it all out until the very end. Our FMC, Riley, is extremely likeable. As for our other characters, there is no way to tell who you can trust.
It is the second book in a series. While I did read the first book, it had been about two years and I was foggy on the details, however that didn’t impact how much I enjoyed this book. I think this could easily be read independently of the first book, but both are excellent.
The audiobook was really well done, so if you are a fan of audiobooks, this is a great one to check out on audio.
