About this ebook
In Vancouver, the wife of a millionaire is dead following an explosion in her own home.
Everyone thinks her husband is responsible, but former FBI profiler Jefferson Winter isn't so sure. The method is too perfect; the lack of mistakes, uncanny. He's seen a series of carefully orchestrated murders - once a year, on exactly the same day, a woman dies in a situation just like this one.
That date is fast approaching and Winter knows another victim has been selected. Can he identify the quiet man before he strikes again?

Although I enjoyed this book I found it hard going on occasion. The best way I can describe the pace of the story is erratic. The characters are strong and emotive but could benefit from a deeper description/ analysis. I can see one character being useful in the future.

I prebought this book and now it won't allow me to read past the sample although it says I own this book. Can someone please assist?

It was a real struggle to keep reading but I wanted to know how it ended. It was disappointing. And the conversation throughout was just so repetitive. Yawn.
