From the international bestselling author of TABOO. 7-chapter preview of the new Reilly Steel novel, coming in 2014.
Quantico-trained forensic investigator Reilly Steel is back in the country of her birth. Unsure about both her future and her position within the Dublin police force, she hopes that a relaxing stay at the Florida beach home of her old FBI mentor Daniel Forrest will help get her thoughts together. When Daniel's son, policeman Todd Forrest, is called to the scene of a gruesome murder where the body of a beautiful woman has literally been torn in two, he is stopped in his tracks. Not just because of the grotesque and theatrical nature of the crime but because he recognizes the victim as Daniel's goddaughter. In an attempt to find swift resolution on her old friend's behalf, Reilly finds herself drawn into the investigation. And when another disturbing murder occurs soon after, she can't help but feel that she has come across something like this before. But where? And will Reilly's brief hiatus in the US force her into a decision about her future in Dublin, and the unfinished business she has there?
Riley Steel is back in the US enjoying the warmth of the Florida sun and beaches when she gets involved with the violent murder of her friends god daughter. And the race is on to catch the killer! I love the detail of the investigations that these books have. You can feel the frustration that comes as the clues are just not there and the bodies are piling up! I did have one issue with this book but it was a personal one that most people won't even notice. I can't wait for the next book!
