Publisher's summary

A merciless killer on the hunt...an innocent child in his sights...a woman driven to the edge to stop him...

The killer knows Eve Duncan all too well. He knows the pain she feels for her murdered daughter, Bonnie, whose body has never been found. He knows that as one of the nation's top forensic sculptors she'll insist on identifying the nine skeletons unearthed on a bluff near Georgia's Talladega Falls.

He knows she won't be able to resist the temptation of believing that one of those skeletons might be her daughter's. But that is only the beginning of the killer's sadistic game. He wants Eve one on one, and he'll use his ace in the hole to make sure she complies. And he won't stop playing until he claims the prize he wants most: Eve's life.

Hypocrisy still going strong.

Okay so this is the first book when I realized just how selfish Eve is! It’s insane how in the first book she refused so hard not to do the job for John Logan but in this book she hounded EVERY SINGLE PERSON into dining things they didn’t want to do.

If you made it this far Iris Johansen ends up chilling on the multiple deaths later on in the series.

Good, easy read with twists

Overall I liked the book. I've read it twice, the first time in my preteens and now I'm my thirties. On the second go around some of it seemed a stretch and it leans heavily on romance and introspection on feelings compared to other suspense novels. Despite this it is not a predictable plot and I love how the characters weave in and out of the books on this series.

Love this series!

I love this series! I didn't like the abridged version though. It sounded like an old 70's TV show.
