Review:
Cancel the weekend, put your feet up and immerse yourself in what is sure to become the number 1 crime read this summer. Lisa Gardner is back with a vengeance, offering a story so horrific that from the first pages you turn, you won't want to put the book down until you've finished. It is the summer of 2003 and another heatwave has hit the state of Virginia. At Quantico, the FBI training grounds, trainee FBI agent Kimberley Quincy stumbles across a body and is soon embroiled with the impossibly handsome Special Agent MacCormack in the hunt for a killer who has been taunting police for five years. Each year, in the blistering heat, the relentless serial killer kidnaps two girls, leaving one dead near a freeway whilst the second is dumped alive in one of the most inhospitable places nature can offer with a gallon of water and her purse. Left to fight nature itself and see if she has the strength to survive. Most don't. And now he appears to have struck again, this time personally targeting his main opponent - MacCormack. Fast-paced, flitting between investigator, murderer and victim, Lisa Gardner spins a compulsive tale, vividly described to ensure shivers down the spine whilst eyes widen at the horror of the deaths. Once more featuring Kimberley's dad, FBI profiler Quincy, and his girlfriend Rainie, this is a race against time, against authority and against nature. And that's only to find the victims and not the killer himself..... - Lucy Watson
