Brilliant book, superb writing. Stephen King is King 😂

I loved the plot, it really kept me glued to my seat and I kept reading and reading.

A scary, well-written book which is not for the faint-hearted. Glimpse is the third book in the series and I was not disappointed. Recommended to all who like to read about crime-serial killers and criminal investigations.

Thank you NetGalley and Publishers for granting me early access to "Glimpse, The Tender Killer".

This book did top my favorite reads this year, however I'm currently in the middle of a major move, and will definitely come back at a later time and write out a full review and rating.

Thank you so much!

The third part of the Glimpse series lives up the to promise of the first two installments. The author can be commended for his excellent continuity that carries through from book one to book three. Once more the reader is presented with a different kind of serial killer. This one, afflicted with a mental disorder, but still as dangerous as the others. The glimpse into the twisted mind of the killer provides a stark portrait of a troubled mind.



For this reader, the book read like two books. The first 80% of this book was a 5-star thriller that carried on the best the Glimpse series has to offer. Personally, it took me a long time to come to the place where I thought Rick and Pat could be more than friends, but the author brought me to that place.



The issue I had was with the last 20% of the book and the ending, specifically. I’m still unsure exactly how the book got from where it was to where it ended. Rick’s choice, if you can call it that, just made my head spin. The throwing in of a 'green hat' sighting seemed a bit over the top. It is really comfortable and enjoyable to start with a fresh serial killer in another segment.



Overall a very good book and I look forward to seeing how the author goes forward in the next installment.



My Rating: 4.5 stars

Very interesting and realistic police procedural! The characters are quite believable except there is too much philosophical discussions between them.

Patricia Holmes, criminal psychologist has gone through all the rigors of training, and is now a rookie detective. Her partner is DS Rick McCoy ... they've worked two previous cases and found they worked really well together. It doesn't hurt that they are attracted to each other, although they are both married to other people.

They are on the hunt for the newest serial killer to hit town, who the media has dubbed the Biblical Killer, so named for the quotes left on the walls written in the victims' blood.

Are these random killings .. or ones that are personally selected for their sins? Holmes and McCoy find themselves joining the Tender Nights internet dating site, hoping to lure the killer out into the open. Making themselves targets may be much more dangerous than they think.

I have been fortunate is reading the first two books in this series, as well as the 3rd now. It's a great series, with credible story premises and the good cops who put their lives on the line to solve cases and bring closure to families of victims. The characters are finely defined and I enjoy seeing the blend of personal and professional lives.

This is well written with action filled pages that leave the reader riveted to the story.

Many thanks to the author / The Wild Rose Press, Inc / Netgalley for the digital copy of this crime fiction. Read and reviewed voluntarily, opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.

I enjoyed reading this book. It had a good story to it. I liked the variety of characters in it. I read scary books like this instead of going to scary movies.
