Detective Helen Grace is on the trail of a twisted serial killer in this riveting thriller in the "gripping" ( USA Today ) international bestselling series. Ruby wakes up in a strange room. Her captor calmly explains that no one is looking for her. No one wants her. Except him. When the body of a woman is found buried on a secluded beach, Detective Helen Grace is called to the scene. She knows right away that the killer is no amateur. The woman has been dead for years, and no one has even reported her missing. But why would they? She's still sending text messages to her family. Helen is convinced that a criminal mastermind is at work: someone very smart, very careful, and worst of all, very patient. But as she struggles to piece together the killer's motive, time is running out for a victim who is still alive...
Another great Helen Grace detective book. Number 3 in the series. This one is as good as book 1 and better than book 2. It reels you in from the opening chapter and spits you out with a surprise ending. While the characters are not warm and fuzzy, a good detective novel need not have that love story thread. While Helen may not always seem to be loveable, she always sticks with her convictions to do the right thing. Maybe unethical methods are part of that but you be the judge. Enjoy.
