As an FBI profiler, it’s Lilah Love’s job to think like a killer. And she is very good at her job. When a series of murders surface—the victims all stripped naked and shot in the head—Lilah’s instincts tell her it’s the work of an assassin, not a serial killer. But when the case takes her back to her hometown in the Hamptons and a mysterious but unmistakable connection to her own life, all her assumptions are shaken to the core.
Thrust into a troubled past she’s tried to shut the door on, Lilah’s back in the town where her father is mayor, her brother is police chief, and she has an intimate history with the local crime lord’s son, Kane Mendez. The two share a devastating secret, and only Kane understands Lilah’s own darkest impulses. As more corpses surface, so does a series of anonymous notes to Lilah, threatening to expose her. Is the killer someone in her own circle? And is she the next target?
“Death simply becomes me. In fact, some might say I’m so fucked up that I do death better than I do life. And while death is attracted to me, my own is not appealing.”
Wow. Wow. Wow. This one was all kinds of nothing I expected. Lisa has outdone herself, honestly my favorite by her, the first in this romantic suspense series. Lilah Love is an FBI profiler. She’s a no nonsense heroine that holds her own. She’s the best in her field, and thinks like a killer. She has to, in order to become them catching them before their next victim turns up in a pool of blood. She’s kind of fascinating. Complex and complicated.
Lilah’s instincts are seldom wrong, and trust isn’t something she’s familiar with. A plot full or twists and turns, secrets and lies, and a series of dead bodies that lead her home to the Hampton’s, the hometown she desperately never wanted to step foot in again. The town where her father is mayor, her brother the local police chief, and her ex is Kane Mendez, the one and only crime lord of the infamous Mendez Cartel. I couldn’t read fast enough, I wanted to figure this out and see who’s name, or who’s body came up next. The layers were captivating, the characters riveting. Murder Notes was well paced with great word smithing. I’m absolutely in this one for the long haul. Well done Ms. Jones.
“For the guilty, it’s all about denying your own ability to do such a thing, and denial can be a slow, brutal sword that carves you inside out.”
