A great mystery book indeed, by J.A. Konrath. It is exceedingly written with a powerful base with a woman detective named Jacqueline Daniels. It is a depiction of how a super detective got for herself a tough serial killer on her list and how she retorts when she finally comes under him.
I have never before read anything by J.A. Konrath but after this read I am definitely after his next book.
He perfectly blends the qualities and passion of lady detective, and how her bravery and toughness gets her by her career. Jacqueline is shown as a gritty detective who had a serial killer named Mr.K under her eyes. Yet he was able to slip from her hand just as she was going to catch him.
The story takes place in three differently lodged periods. It is shown in the present day of the period, then another three years back and then another twenty one years before the present day. All throughout the story, the author brings out the qualities of Jacqueline with the people and circumstances around her. We see her essence best when she is faced with two of her weird and strange co workers.
Also when she is held as a captive by Mr.K himself we see how she takes her imprisonment with the entire creepy images of her captivator last victims. She fights her fears and tries not to lose herself with the gripping fear of being a victim herself down in her dungeon.
I can say that it is very aptly written as any good mystery novel should be written and sounded. With every fold of the pages there is mystery and you are filled with suspense and terror. But in Jacqueline-Daniels-Mysteries you are catered with a doze of light moments with occasional humor and wit around the situations. I can definitely say that this book will be a favorite of every mystery book reader.
