Friday Memes: The Wrong Woman by Leanne Kale Sparks

 Happy Friday everybody!

Book Beginnings on Friday is hosted by Rose City ReaderThe Friday 56 is hosted at Freda's Voice. Check out the links above for the rules and for the posts of the participants each week. Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

Beginning:
A serial killer's main objective is to kill.

It's a common misconception, perhaps true for some -- maybe even the majority; he didn't know. Had never seen any research on the matter. And was not particularly interested in the answer. For him, it was more about the hunt. Finding the right target. Stalking the perfect prey.
Friday 56:
The observation room was small and dark, with only one window which looked into the interrogation room.
This week I am spotlighting The Wrong Woman by Leanne Kale Sparks from my Review stack. Here is the description from Amazon:
The past is never far behind, as a string of murders threatens to unleash long-buried secrets in this pulse-pounding thriller for fans of Melinda Leigh and T. R. Ragan.

The only survivor of Denver’s notorious “Reaper” serial murders, FBI Special Agent Kendall Beck grapples with the ghosts of her past by seeking justice for victims of abuse. She’s neck deep in a particularly ugly case involving the disappearance of five-year-old Emily Williams—but her investigation is derailed when her best friend and roommate, Gwen Tavich, turns up dead floating in a nearby lake.

Devastated by the news of Gwen’s death, Kendall teams up with Denver detective Adam Taylor to find the killer. Gwen’s fiancé, Ty Butler, is being evasive about the last time he saw Gwen, and as the evidence mounts against him, he’s arrested for the murder. With every new clue, Kendall questions how well she really knew her friend. And when Gwen’s dark secrets begin spilling out one by one, she begins to understand the devastating magnitude of her murder. The Reaper has returned to Denver—and he’s not stopping at just one victim.

As the trauma of Kendall’s past comes roaring back, she and Adam have no time to spare before more bodies start piling up. And then Kendall makes a shocking discovery that reveals the horrifying truth behind Emily Williams’s disappearance. Now, Kendall must confront her darkest fears as she and the Reaper face off one more time.

  2. The opening is chilling, isn't it? I imagine serial killers would get some sort of rush out of the hunt--so I wouldn't be surprised if it was more about that than the kill for many. What a dark thought! Or maybe I've read too many mysteries. This does sound good! I hope you have a great weekend.
