His first week on the job, Tennessee Bureau of Investigations Agent Garrett Addison is sent to investigate a murder. He and his team quickly realize that sixteen-year-old Julie Kerrigan may be the latest in a string of related murders. With a possible serial killer on the loose, they call in the FBI for help. Special Agent Jordan Lambert returns to her hometown of Nashville to help with the case. She is surprised when she sees that Garrett is working the case. She and Garrett had a relationship while they attended the police academy. It came to an end when she left to join the FBI. Now they will be working closely together to catch a killer.
This is the last book in the Nikki Boyd series. It starts out in 2004 when Garrett discovers that his victim is actually the third victim of a serial killer. I was confused at first when Nikki was nowhere to be seen for the first 100 pages. When she finally shows up in the story, it makes sense. Her younger sister was one of the victims of the serial killer. (We know about this from the previous books.) The situation puts Nikki on a career path in law enforcement.
This book is billed as romantic suspense. The mystery was interesting but a little slow moving. It felt like the team would investigate a murder, notify the parents, canvas for witnesses, and come to a halt when there was no evidence for them to follow. This happened several times. The suspense picked up in the last half of the book which kept me involved in the story. The romance portion was problematic. I have to say that the 14 years that this story covered had to be the slowest slow-burn romance in history. Both Garrett and Jordan cared for each other; but were afraid to say anything. Every time Jordan came back to Nashville after a new murder, Jordan would think about what it would have been like if she never left her hometown and stayed in her relationship with Garrett. Of course, she did nothing about it and neither did he. I wanted to scream. Overall, a slow-paced but decent mystery with a boring romance. My rating: 3.5 Stars.
