Archie Sheridan should be recovering from his past run-ins with serial killer Gretchen Lowell, yet he's just as haunted as the day she let him go. But when a cyclist comes across a corpse in Mount Tabor Park on the eastern side of Portland, Archie suddenly has a new case to focus on. Then comes a call from an unlikely source. After months of ignoring calls from a doctor at the mental hospital where Gretchen is supposed to be locked away forever, Archie hears that she might have inside knowledge about the new investigation. But is she bluffing just to get close to him, and can he risk losing his only lead? One thing is for sure: Gretchen Lowell is back, and Archie must decide if catching a killer is worth facing his demons one more time.

I'm a fan of a large variety of protagonists. While, in most of my recent reading, I have been leaning towards female protagonists(and writers) as my platonic ideal, I will always have a soft spot in my heart for severely damaged male protagonists, as long as they are handled in a non-exploitative of women way. Archie Sheridan fits this model to a T. When you can add that the secondary protagonist(and often the primary) is an equally damaged woman in Susan Ward, is it any shock that I have loved this series from the jump. The only negative of this book, in my eyes, is that finishing it means I only have one more book left in this series.
