Synopsis
The Las Vegas desert. A once famous pop singer lies dead. The only clue to her murder—a bizarre disfigurement.
Only one thing to do. Call in Parker and Steele.
To avoid the hassle of a media frenzy, the local police sergeant decides contact his old mentor, Wade Parker, and ask him to consult on the case.
After nearly dying eight months ago, Miranda Steele can't wait to get back to real detective work.
Nobody deserves to die that way. But this one isn’t so easy. If she can't solve this case, not only will she fail her destiny, another psycho killer might get away with murder. Meanwhile, Parker harbors secret reservations about their new venture together. Especially when he suspects there might be more to this murder than meets the...eye.
This was a good read. The story revolves around the murder of a singer, everyone of the main characters related to the singer are in some way or another suspected of killing her. Each chapter builds up the suspense and makes you keep turning the pages. I like how Miranda's (the main character) and the Sargent's relationship develops, it shows a growing element. Overall it was good mystery, the ending is not what I expected, not in a way I expected.
Nobody deserves to die that way. But this one isn’t so easy. If she can't solve this case, not only will she fail her destiny, another psycho killer might get away with murder. Meanwhile, Parker harbors secret reservations about their new venture together. Especially when he suspects there might be more to this murder than meets the...eye.
My Review
A light suspense, I would say, with a bit of humor and romance to make things sizzle.
