Thank you NetGalley and Harlequin Mira for the eARC.
Special Prosecutor Jana Berzalius' mother died of a heart attack while in an ambulance on the way to the hospital. At the same time she's involved in looking into a gruesome murder, soon turning into the hunt for a serial killer - 3 people are dead, all horribly mutilated. As if that isn't enough, her nemesis from the past has returned, blackmailing her into hiding him in her apartment.
When it appears one of the EMT's in Jana's mother's ambulance fell asleep on the trip to the hospital, possibly causing her death, he becomes the no.1 suspect in the killings...he knew and worked with all 3 victims.
All the major players in this book are flawed - that's what makes them so interesting, No-one more so than Jana, still suffering the effects of her atrocious childhood before her adoption. Although not good at relationships, she's excellent at her job, giving it her all.
I enjoyed this book a lot, it was quite gripping and my affection for Jana grew a lot. Looking forward to what's next for her!
