Louis Kincaid travels to Florida when his former boss sets him up for some investigative work there. He's hired to help a local lawyer who's client has been charged with murder. When more bodies are found, he soon finds himself in the middle of a serial killer investigation.
I thought this was a solid installment in the series and that Louis is a character that you care about.

Book was a pretty good read !
this is #3 in the series and it doesn't disappoint. The charachters are real and the mystery remains one to the end.
The perfect read for mystery fans.
This is the first book I've read by P.J. Parrish and thoroughly enjoyed it. It's pretty gruesome so not for the weak stomached. No romance, strictly police work and murder.
A serial killer is hunting black men on a small peaceful island off the Florida coast. Louis Kincaid, out-of-state cop on "vacation" is working with the local cops to solve these murders. A female FBI profiler is also involved. This is well written with great clues that lead and mislead at the same time. Great twists and turns which totally throw you off the scent (the cops too). They went in so many wrong directions yet finally reached the proper conclusion which I guess is how real cops do it too. Of course, all the cops have issues and there is tension all over the place. A wrong word from one, sets another off and so forth. Very true to life and IMO as you'd expect a police department to function

This is the third book in the Louis Kincaid series. These books are densely written (lots of words), so are not quick reads, but they pull you in to the story.
Excellent Author. Keeps you guessing right up to the very end!
