Resumen del Editor

Her body is broken. Wrapped in plastic. Dumped on the side of the road. She is the first. There will be more.

A serial killer stalks women in rural Ohio. He is deranged but brilliant, known only by the grotesque nickname the media has given him - The Doll Parts Killer. The name is apt. He dismembers his victims and leaves them in garbage bags in public places. A residential neighborhood. Next to a roller rink. Behind a Burger King.

The investigation is a disaster. No physical evidence. Unreliable witnesses. To make matters worse, the FBI has lost contact with the star profiler working the case. Now rookie agent Violet Darger gets the most important assignment of her career.

When Darger travels to Ohio, she brings along demons of her own. Her last case ended in tragedy. The death of a 16 year old girl. Darger still has nightmares about the bloody scene, still has panic attacks when she remembers. The trauma shattered her core beliefs.

Now she faces a killer unlike anything she's seen. Aggressive. Territorial. If she fails, more will die. He will kill again and again.

Will this case restore her faith? Or push her over the edge?

The victims harbor dark secrets. The clues twist and writhe and refuse to keep still. And the killer watches the investigation on the nightly news, gleeful to relive the violence, knowing that he can't be stopped.

Intense descriptions like I've never read before

I enjoyed this book thoroughly. The descriptions of gore and what happens to the human body under physical duress or death reads as if written by a pathologist.

Dead end girl

This was a thoroughly power packed book from beginning to end. Lots of twists. Great character development snd plot. Carried my phone everywhere so i could finish it!!! 5 stars on all

Excellent book

The book was excellent but it had too many brand names during the story the author gets paid every timeStore name or a brand is mentioned. This author should be a millionaire.

Great story!

I would recommend this book to fellow mystery readers! Kept me in suspense between each listen!

Very good

I really enjoyed this book, really helped me out on the road trip to pass the time. The narrator did an excellent job as well

Very good

I enjoyed this book. The authors and narrator are talented. I will definitely listen to more. I was a bit irritated at the way the ending was handled. I refuse to be a spoiler. I'll just say that I've been a mystery lover for many decades, so have become opinionated and persnickety. The big reveal was frustrating for me. But others may feel differently. Overall, great purchase.

summary of my thoughts

too detailed and ihRd to believe. a Stephen King writing style...so.e will like it some will not...
Stephen King wanna be

Great FBI story

A dismembered body, another woman missing and FBI profiler Darger is thrown into the deep end of her first case. The small mid-west town has never beforehand had a murder and Darger must work with a task force to stop a killer. Good story and start to this series.

Ugggh. That narrator!

I had to stop listening half way thru to warn others that the narration makes the otherwise decent book almost unbearable. Do the authors have no say in who narrates their book?

Could not put down

Great description and suspense❤️
I am a crime junkie and this was the perfect genre for me!
