I have read many paranormal books and Kay Hooper takes a different approach in this mystery series with the SCU unit in the FBI. I enjoyed it, did not want to put it down and was drawn into the story line. Something different but refreshing to the thriller line of books. Can't wait to read her next book in the trilogy.
