Synopsis

Kristen Conner goes undercover to catch a serial killer who chooses his victims in the most unlikely of places... only to discover she is his new target. Chicago has a new resident: a soulless killer on a decade-long murder spree. When a young woman is found dead in her fashionable townhome, the FBI is convinced an elusive, organized killer is at work again—a man the local press has dubbed the Cutter Shark. Detective Kristen Conner is a good cop and tough as they come—but she’s never faced an adversary like this. Her life is centered on faith and family: she coaches her niece’s soccer team, always shows up hungry for family dinner, and only misses church when fighting with her mom and glamorous TV news reporter sister—or when hunting a desperate criminal before he strikes again. From the opening chase that brings Kristen to knifepoint in a dark alley, to the concluding moments when she comes face-to-face with the hauntingly familiar serial killer, Cuts Like a Knife is loaded with action, suspense, humor, and wry introspection through the voice of its irresistible lead character

I loved this book! There. I've said it. I'm a huge fan of character driven suspense novels, and there just aren't enough of them in the CBA. Kristin, the main character, is a real person who struggles with faith like all of us. She's strong (but not to a fault), funny, and a darn good detective. Mar......more

I may not be a woman who can literally kick butt but I certainly love to read about women who can. So when I read the publisher’s short description for Cuts Like a Knife, Book #1 in a new detective mystery series by publishing veteran Mark K. Gilroy, I knew it was probably going to be my kind of nov......more

Debut Inspirational -- A little slow to start, but then the action really takes off. This story reads like a thriller and is light on the religious aspect.......more

Goodreads review by Fiction on January 31, 2017

Whew! What a great read! It took me a couple of chapters to get into the first person, present tense point of view for the main character, but once I did this was one of those books that constantly called to me, asking to be picked up so I could read ‘just a few more chapters’. I’m tempted to say it......more
