Wow wow wow!! This book was just crazy when you really think about it! The storyline was so very interesting! This was such a fantastic read! I thoroughly enjoyed reading this one! I highly recommend reading this book as it was well worth reading! Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!
Thank you to NetGalley for a copy of this book. I will say it’s classified as a Mystery/Thriller when it’s really just “Murder” it’s dark, it’s evil, I really struggled with the first 180 pages and can see why so many marked it as DNF or rated it poorly I was also wanting to rate it a 1/2 star it was so graphic and as women we do feel so much fear as it is, it’s almost like this book makes you 100000x more paranoid and afraid. I also didn’t like the male predator going after women, the main character was creepy and disgusting in every way. I’m glad it finally picked up I would rate this a solid 3.5/4 stars I think the author wrote really well, it’s just too dark for me and for me it’s not something I would pick up again. I did love the main female characters and Doris and Jessica they were great.
*Spoiler alert * but my gay heart was sad Midnight and Jessica didn’t end up together that would have been icing on the cake 🥲
It seems I read The Profiler by Helen Fields before in April 2024, and it's being released again in February 2025 as Profile K. I was wondering why the premise and these characters seemed familiar.
When I originally read the book last year, I enjoyed the book. But this second read was just okay for me. Maybe that is because I felt like I did indeed read it before.
Midnight Jones is an analyst trained to understand the human mind. But everything changes when, during her work, she discovers Profile K’s file because K stands for killer, and she knows that someone more dangerous than she could have ever imagined walks among them.
I so enjoyed Profile K. This was an edge-of-your-seat story. The story was intense, and the action felt like it never stopped. There were so many good twists and tension. I really liked the author's writing style and how the story unraveled.
I really liked Midnight as a character. And the stalking part was quite scary.
I would recommend Profile K. This time, I am rating it a 4 out of 5 stars.

Helen Fields does it again in this genre, it had that element that I wanted and enjoyed the overall story going on in this. It had a tension that I was looking for and was glad everything worked together. The characters had that element that I was looking for and glad I read this.
This is disturbingly good, but you have to be ready for some gore and some scary death scenes. This book is the epitome of thrilling and will hold you captive until the end.
When Midnight Jones realizes there might be a serial killer on the loose, after she profiles him in the course of her job, she can’t get anyone to listen to her. Everyone thinks she’s being overreactive, but Midnight must find “Profile K” before he finds her.
I’m a big fan of psychological thrillers so I loved this. It might be too much for some readers, but it was right up my alley. I loved it and I look forward to reading more by this author.
