Love, lust, and Law Enforcement all intertwine as Detective King becomes infatuated with an extremely fortunate surviving victim of the killer.

In the end, Detective Kings’ good looks, charm, and charisma just may lead to his own demise.

Familiar with the Fort Worth Scene

I Believe it's the beginning of a series of books so it started out with getting to know the characters, but then it picks up and gets really good and the ending was a shocker.
