Blood of Angels

Veteran detective Joe Keough and his partner Harriet Connors are recruited into the FSK to help solve the serial murders of young boys and girls in St. Louis and Chicago. The task force is an FBI offshot to find serial killers and consequently they meet resistance from the local police who want to protect their own turf and freeze them out of the information loop. The investigation is aided by an interesting FBI profiler Nicole Busby. It turns out that there were two killers involved and that they were twins that had been separated at birth who fell into the same pattern. Good solid read with a few unique twists.

Joe Keough is back with his partner Harriet. This time, they are dealing with a/or more serial killer(s). Killing of little children are happening in St-Louis and Chicago with strange coincidences. I LOVE the character of Joe Keough. This book is not chock full of action, but the author manages to describe the murder scenes with a vivid accuracy (without too much gore) and lets you feel as though you are seeing it yourself. The character of Keough is far from perfect and is, in fact, loaded with confusion. HIs heart is in the right place though and all he knows is that he needs to find the killer(s). As I said, there isn't a ton of action on every page, but Keough will walk you through these murders with a sharp eye and very interesting twists. This is a smart thriller and is absolutely worth the price of the book. Buy it.
