Publisher's summary

A schoolgirl found it on a nature hike. A severed human foot wearing pink nail polish. A gruesome but invaluable clue that leads forensic pathologist Birdy Waterman down a much darker trail - to a dangerous psychopath whose powers of persuasion seem to have no end.

Only by teaming up with sheriff's detective Kendall Stark can Birdy hope to even the odds in a deadly game. It's a fateful decision the killer wants them to make. And it's the only way Birdy and Kendall can find their way to a murderer who's ready to kill again....

Solid Entertainment

I enjoyed the twists in the story and the resolution and reveal. I just thought the story could have ended with more "thunder" or punch. I did enjoy the story.

A bit to juvenile

Mediocre can't see that it was written for adults maybe teens would enjoy it better . I also think it would be better narrated by a woman as most of the caricatures are women

Narrator....meh

Story was fine. The narrators inflections reminded me of a man who might have done radio mysteries back in 1930.
I would listed to how he voiced a line and I would think "come on! The (character) wouldn't have said it like that!

Arrests with no evidence?

The story is good until the conclusions...one killer all evidence blantently obvious not hidden, the other accused...how did they even arrest her? Poor editing

I’m addicted

Another good story from Gregg Olson. I like the dynamics of the characters and the story always lines up in good sequence. Easy to follow these characters and where they stand.
