Publisher's summary
*Winner of a 2017 AudioFile Earphones Award*
"Suspense at a breakneck pace. Delaine demonstrates her talents as a narrator through realistic portrayals of a dizzying cast of male and female characters, both criminals and cops." — AudioFile Magazine
When she's called to the murder scene, the last thing San Francisco Homicide detective Valerie Hart is expecting is for Katherine Glass to walk back into her life. Six years earlier, revulsion and fascination had gripped the nation in equal measure, as beautiful, intelligent, charming—and utterly evil—Katherine Glass had been convicted on six counts of Murder One. But the freshly-mutilated corpse in the ground-floor apartment bears all the hallmarks of Katherine's victims. And then there's the note, with its chilling implications. Addressed to Valerie.
To stop the slaughter, Valerie has no choice. She must ask Katherine Glass to help her decipher the killer's twisted message. But that means re-entering the pitch-black labyrinth that is Katherine's mind, and this time Valerie isn't so sure which one of them will survive.

Story
In their isolated country house, a mother and her two children prepare to wait out a blinding snowstorm. Two violent predators walk through the door. Nothing will ever be the same. When the two strangers turn up at Rowena Cooper's isolated Colorado farmhouse, she knows instantly that it's the end of everything. For the two haunted and driven men, on the other hand, it's just another stop on a long and bloody journey. And they still have many miles to go, and victims to sacrifice, before their work is done.

Story
Alex Armstrong has changed everything about herself—her name, her appearance, her backstory. She’s no longer the terrified teenager a rapt audience saw on television, emerging in handcuffs from the quiet suburban home the night her family was massacred. That girl, Alexandra Quinlan, nicknamed Empty Eyes, was accused of the killings, fought to clear her name, and later took the stand during her highly publicized defamation lawsuit that captured the attention of the nation. It’s been ten years since, and Alex hasn’t stopped searching for answers about the night her family was killed.

If there’s one kind of person Tank Rizzo hates most in this world, it’s a dirty cop. Criminals are at least honest about being dishonest; dirty cops are a disgrace to the badge they carry. Detective Eddie Kenwood is one such disgrace. He’s got the highest signed-confession rate in the NYPD and a distinguished career built on putting men behind bars - whether they’re guilty or not doesn’t matter much to him. When Tank’s partner, Pearl, tells him about an old family friend Kenwood put in jail for a murder he didn’t commit, Tank and Pearl vow to take Kenwood down.

Someone's been sending Gemma compromising photos. Photos she doesn't remember posing for. She can't recall much about that night during a work conference - she'd written off her headache the next morning as the result of too much drinking at the hotel bar. But then increasingly disturbing photos start appearing in her email, along with bills and other items she can't account for. As the blackmailer grows bolder and events start to escalate beyond her control, Gemma fears for her already shaky marriage and worries that the truth of what really happened that night must be more twisted than she imagines.

Sophomore slump
This is a good story. Predictable in a lot of ways and not nearly as captivating as its predecessor. I feel we missed out on some moments that could have been and were even set up to explore but where passed over anyway. Hopefully the third installment is stronger. Still worth your time if you enjoyed the first book.

Deus Ex Machina
Overall I liked the story, it kept my interest. I feel like the story had a lot of filler in some spots, notably any conversation involving Squash or Jailhouse Visits. These were done to flesh out the characters, yes, but man they could have done the work with half the time. Any direct conversation with Katherine Glass made me want to gouge out my own eye, the character was insufferable, but as she would say, I digress. The whole thing wrapped up in the last 22 minutes very quickly and abruptly thanks to the well-placed Deus Ex Machina. I would like to hear more Valerie Hart stories but if the ending of this suggests the plot of the next one, I'll pass on it. Worth the credit and a good continuation from this author.

A bit predictable
I finished the first Val book and then immediately started this one - felt a bit predictable and repetitive. Still a bone chilling listen!

Give me a break!!!
I loved the first book - but this 2nd book just irritated me to distraction. The unnecessary sexual deprivation descriptions - going on and on as if we cannot completely understand unless it takes u a whole chapter.
The long drawn out monologue of the psychopath Katherine Glass - OH MY GOD - and it could have been intentional - but I cannot listen to someone go on and on...and on and on....about themselves, especially the need to describe their childhood mast urbanization practices, again, for an entire chapter, droning on and on. (Note my run-on sentence - the book is FULL OF THEM).
The dialogue was painful, I kept waiting for it to get better, to become intelligent - but with only 5-hrs remaining I GIVE UP!!! And, Saul Black is so very obviously intelligent - so why go down this road??
Not sure I will attempt another Saul Black book after this.
Narrator is excellent!
