Lin Weich Only about third in and yes it is another suspense thriller. Lots of research on this one involving forensics, psychopathy, and the like. Would hate to get some important nasty detail wrong :) Inspiration came from a series of murders that took place in the 1800's but is set in modern day. The plot, beginning and ending are all there but the details if you want to kill someone properly are a real challenge. Are you writing another book now?
