A multi POV thriller that finds a criminal psychologist at the point of burnout accepting a request to assist the investigation into her estranged cousin's husband's murder. The biggest problem is the request came from her cousin, not the investigating law enforcement agency. Each of the characters is well defined, the well worn psychologist, her secret admirer, the grieving widow and her young daughter all play a big emotionally charged part in the story along with comments from the killer (?) that pull the reader back and forth as the story progresses. The tension remains high as we watch the characters move closer to a deadly meeting. It was a surprise when the killer is revealed.
