Perfect for you if...

You love procedural crime fiction where detectives work the case methodically but the personal stakes feel equally important.
You're drawn to stories featuring a determined female lead who knows how to think like a killer without losing her humanity.
You want a series where each book genuinely improves on the last, with reveals that make you reconsider what you thought you knew.

Maybe not for you if...

You're sensitive to graphic violence, particularly descriptions of mutilation and sexual harm against women.
You prefer standalone mysteries over serialised narratives where book 6 works best if you've read books 1-5 first.
You need lighter fare or character-driven stories where the procedural elements take a back seat.

About this book

When Jennie Killingbeck goes missing while driving back to Albuquerque, Detective Alyssa Wyatt and her squad move quickly to find her alive. The case becomes more complex when FBI Agent Ryker Newlin arrives at their precinct with troubling news. For six years, the FBI has been investigating a serial killer known as 'The Sunset Slayer,' who targets young red-haired women and mutilates them with an 'X' across their lips. The killer has operated across multiple states. After seeing Jennie's distinctive red hair in news reports, Ryker comes to warn the Albuquerque PD that they may be dealing with this same murderer. Alyssa and Ryker are determined to stop The Sunset Slayer before another victim is claimed. Finding a murderer in the New Mexico desert presents significant challenges, but both investigators are committed to ending the killer's violence.
