About this ebook
A crime-solving couple hunts a killer obsessed with beauty in a thriller by the New York Times–bestselling “queen of romantic suspense” (RT Book Reviews).
Someone is murdering beautiful young women in the New York area and displaying them in mausoleums and underground tombs. The FBI is handling the case, with Special Agent Craig Frasier as lead.
Kieran Finnegan, forensic psychologist and part owner of Finnegan’s, her family’s pub, is consulting on the case. Craig and Kieran are a couple who’ve worked together on more than one occasion. On this occasion, though, Craig fears for the safety of the woman he loves. Because the killer is too close. The body of a young model is found in a catacomb under a two-hundred-year-old church, now deconsecrated and turned into a nightclub. A church directly behind Finnegan’s in lower Manhattan.
As more women are murdered, their bodies discovered in underground locations, it’s clear that the police and the FBI are dealing with a serial killer. Craig and Kieran are desperate to track down the murderer, a man obsessed with female perfection. Obsessed enough to want to “preserve” that beauty by destroying the women who embody it . . .
“An incredible storyteller.” —Los Angeles Daily News

A serial killer is at large in New York City. Bodies of beautiful young women are being found in mausoleums and underground tombs. They have been stabbed int he heart, dressed in a white gown and holding a rose. FBI Agent Craig Frasier is leading the investigation. Kieran Finnegan, a psychologist, and Frasier's girlfriend are working together. When older bodies are found, they discover that whoever the killer is .. he's been doing this for years. And when an actress is found in a catacomb close to where Kieran works he fears for her safety. All the victims have one thing in common .. they are all beautiful ... and perfect. Their killer is obsessed with female perfection ... and Kieran has caught his eye. Heather Graham is fantastic when it comes to Romantic Suspense. The suspense starts on page 1 and ratchets up, up, up until the surprising and violent ending. I love how the characters interact with each other. Kiernan has 2 brothers, one of whom is her twin. They are very close and will safeguard their family with whatever it takes. Craig is an only child and although he understands that family is important, there are times he looks at them all and can only imagine what it would be like to have siblings. Kieran and Craig met in Book 1 of this series .... FLAWLESS. Although the second book, A PERFECT OBSESSION does very well as a stand alone. No spoilers in Book 2. Many thanks to the author / Harlequin (US & Canada) / Netgalley for the digital copy. Opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.
