A serial killer is stalking young, attractive blondes in the small Pennsylvania town of Charity where Margo McBride is the acting chief of policeand possibly the killers next target. Two years ago, the killer struck and cop Cole Blackburn (who was engaged to Margo) lost his job when the Pennsylvania State Police sent a representative, John Wilcox, to help with the investigation. The characters here are all well developed, and the reveal of the killer and how he relates to the investigation is a neat twist.
I loved this story! Yes the mystery was great, yes the romance was great, but the supporting characters and well developed personal stories really did it for me. Margo is stuggling to find her way in a department where she's just been promoted and now in charge of her fellow officers. Cole returns to the department having previously worked the case, but now as a consultant. Everyone is trying to find their place and Cole and Margo realize they are still in love. One of my favorites. Enjoy!
