"A very well crafted romantic mystery"
Residents of Nashville fear a serial killer because the
culprit leaves behind no trace of evidence. He has killed
three young girls so far, strangling them, using the
infamous Hangman's knot. He removes a body part from each
woman, but none of the victims have anything in common.
One of the dead is a senator's granddaughter and he uses
his political clout to make sure the NPD works with a
member of the Chasm Academy for Serial Homicide. Lori Patrick is an excellent profiler because she has
an intuitive ability to get into the mind of a killer. She
also carries a lot of baggage from these cases. She works
with Detective Mike Mitchell, a man whose wife and son were
murdered by a man who was never caught. Neither Mike nor
Lori wants to pair up but they don't have a choice. They
begin to narrow down the possible suspects, but also become
entangled personally. DYING TO MEET YOU is a very well crafted romantic
mystery with two protagonists who, despite their own
opinions, make a very good team on and off the clock. Amy
Talford is a creative writer with the ability to create so
many viable suspects that the reader doesn't know who the
killer is until the last three pages. This novel is the
start of what appears will become a great police procedural
series. Harriet Klausner
