Publisher's summary

When a local girl falls prey to a sadistic serial killer, Nashville homicide lieutenant Taylor Jackson and her lover, FBI profiler Dr. John Baldwin, find themselves in a joint investigation pursuing a vicious murderer.

The Southern Strangler is slaughtering his way through the Southeast, leaving a gruesome memento at each crime scene – the prior victim’s severed hand.

Ambitious TV reporter Whitney Connolly is certain the Southern Strangler is her ticket out of Nashville; she’s got a scoop that could break the case. She has no idea how close to this story she really is – or what it will cost her.

As the killer spirals out of control, everyone involved must face a horrible truth – that the purest evil is born of private lies.

Happy to discover a new mystery series

As Sue Grafton's alphabet is nearing and end, I'm looking for detective novels featuring strong women to keep me entertained. J.T. Elison's Taylor Jackson seems to meet this need. A clever plot, interesting characters, and I want to know where Taylor and S.A. Baldwin end up.

This was such a good blook

This was such a good book, I really enjoyed listening to it. I looked forward to every chapter, I never wanted to end, but I did like the ending. I enjoy all of this author's books and plan on listening to all of the series.

good thriller but a little predictable

reminiscent of J.D Robb's 'in death' series... a nuch paler version of characters & storylines, but easy to listen to & kept my attention.

Narration Ruined it for me

The story itself is pretty good! I was unimpressed with the narration, very monotone and didn’t hype up the exciting parts of the story. I found myself having to rewind several times as it was easy to stop paying attention. Sounded like the voice didn’t know what was going on.

struggled with this one

I struggled to listen through the first several chapters. The story started very Joe Friday and the narrator talked that way through the entire book. She did soften some towards the end or maybe the story just became a little more interesting. I really wanted to love this book and get hooked on the series as I really enjoyed another by this author but now I am not sure I will.

A Great Series

I love this series so much that I am going thru it again. It is a little tough to shut if off and go to sleep.
