You know you've found a 'goodie' when everyday life is interrupted often by thoughts of the book you are reading. I finally gave up today and just sat down and finished it. Louis Kincaid is a policeman with a past. He lands a job in Loon Lake, Michigan and he's grateful for the quiet and the solitude. And he's soon looking for a serial cop killer. PJ Parrish crafts an infectious story with fascinating characters and an ambience so real you can truly feel like you are there. I'm off now to find Parrish's first book which I hope will hold me until the 3rd one comes out. ( ) Louis Kincaid drove north to have a chance to be a cop. The interview was strange, the hiring was strange, and the police station hierarchy was strange. But yet, he liked it here in Loon Lake, the air was clean and just breathing it made him feel happy. The first to die was Detective Pryce; a cop killer is roaming the streets and byways of Loon Lake, but why? Louis begins to investigate his murder, to find the motive, to find the killer. But this will not be the only body in this investigation, quickly more follow. The twists and turns of the investigation are many, and for each answer found another pops up. The mystery is multi-faceted, the characters are diverse and the dialogue is impossible to turn away from. I could not set this book down. Book Description: In the quaint tourist town of Loon Lake, Mich., a killer is taking his vengeance. One by one, the bodies of cops are found, brutally executed, with mysteriously coded death cards placed with each corpse – the gruesome signature of a psychopath. And the only sound louder than doors being locked against evil is the sound of hearts beating in terrors. Louis Kincaid came north looking for refuge, a place to forget his past. But now he’s landed in the middle of an investigation that’s a terrifying journey through a town’s fiercely protected heart of darkness. My Thoughts: Parrish does a phenomenal job of keeping Kincaid an interesting male protagonist. She gives him a possible love interest and us a view of the fatal background of his life that could possibly explain Kincaid's behavior throughout the book. I thought these were extremely strong points, because the more details there were, the better one could understand what was going down. Even though the action taken by the police seemed at times a bit over the top...you have to strep back and remember this is not Chicago or Detroit. This is a small department of eight men, most who had never faced the situation they found themselves in. P.J. Parrish did an excellent job of bringing their flaws and strong points forward. I did read the second book in the series first...by mistake. A Super mystery with lots Snow. Can't beat that! My long time friend gave this book to read. He knew that I enjoy a good mystery and according to his view this book was just a super read. When I finished the book I was a bit sad that the main character Detective Louis Kincaid had left me. I'll just have to read more of P.J. Parrish's books to find out what he has been up to. I thought that the author kept all different scenarios that were taking place in a logical order and that made the read a very enjoyable experience. If you are like me and enjoy a mystery that revolves around freezing winters, snow then this author will make you feel like you are right in the midst of Michigan's cold climate. The story moved along at a brisk pace and before I knew it I was finished. Overall, just like my neighbor told me, this book is a super read. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
