This is the first of a new series which takes places in New York's Hudson Valley. It's a quiet town, one of those places that everyone seems to know each other. Lots of atmosphere ...especially those of a series of murders that took place in the very early 1900s..which were never solved.

This picturesque little town has attracted a serial killer, one who's been killing for years with no one any the wiser. He does love those nice young ladies with porcelain skin, a smattering of freckles across their noses .. and those beautiful long strands of red hair. He always takes the hair with him when he's done .... but these are merely stand-ins. He's after one particular redhead ..but he's going to play games with her first.

Rowan Mundy is that redhead. She and her husband and their grown children returned here years ago ... she to run from a mistake she made. And now .. someone knows that secret ... and wants her to pay with her hair ... and her blood.

I can always count on this author to write a tightly knit suspenseful book... and she has succeeded once again. This one is a page turner. Highly recommend to anyone who likes mystery/suspense.
