Book Review Blurb: The Killer in Me by Olivia Kiernan

This was a great find, and even though it was the second in the series (which, once again, the publisher neglected to mention in the NetGalley description – a thing that seems to happen with great frequency, much to my frustration), I found it a thoroughly enjoyable read on its own. DCS Frankie Sheehan is a marvelous and fairly old-school copper, and her internal struggles to maintain objectivity and professionalism felt wholly authentic and rang true as a bell. The mystery underlying the murders was well established and the secrets and misdirections were carefully parsed out, keeping me wholly engaged from the opening pages until the bitter end. I’m definitely checking out the first in series now, and will keep my eye on this series in future – the writing is strong, the characters are well-developed and engaging, and the mysteries are carefully constructed and revealed bit by bit. All in all this was a great find.
