Open Case File Memo Honor my father. There are four types of serial killers. Hedonistic. Power/control. Mission-oriented. Visionary. Not all serial killers are caught. At any given point, there could be as many as fifty serial killers active at a time. Fifty. I’m looking for one. He’s male, likely in his forties or fifties now. He’s been killing successfully for more than three decades. I suspect even longer, though our timeline is based only on the earliest victim we’ve identified with his signature mark. Seventy-nine kills that we are certain of. A year ago, the unsub’s methods changed. It was a subtle shift. Instead of one or two bodies a year, five have been dropped. Forensic evidence remains inconclusive, but in my gut, I know something’s changed. Either the unsub has a partner or he’s about to become a spree killer. It’s only a matter of time before someone puts the coin into the right slot and the kill song begins. Finding the unsub is my obsession. It was my father’s. He died without solving the mystery. I won’t. KILL SONG is a full length dark adult romance and psychological thriller with suspenseful themes. Any trigger warnings will be included in the foreword. Some situations may be uncomfortable for readers. This is a reverse harem novel, meaning the main character has more than one love interest. This is book one in the series.

    Vienna was raised by her father with very specific rules and trained to find and eliminate the monsters that prey on others. A year ago, her father was killed and in addition to fulfilling their mission, she is now hunting his killer(s). While out hunting, she is “saved” by Merrick, who is like a feral puppy - he’s sweet, quickly obsessed and can be deadly. Then there is Fletcher, the flirty computer nerd. They are being hunted by the FBI. The semi-friendly but not friendly rivalry between Fletcher and Rick is fun to watch. I love Vienna’s fierceness. The open conversations between Vienna and Rick are sweet. The ending does have a small cliffy - but it’s not horrible - more suspenseful vs fearing for the f/Mc’s. I am hooked and can’t wait to see how this series plays out.
