4 Stars for Robert Dugoni's 2nd Tracy Crosswhite Thriller

This installment had a solid plot and the mystery keeps you guessing till the very end. I must admit I did have the killer in mind but I had it narrowed down to 2 possibilities - so it still kept me guessing until the big reveal.

I enjoy Tracy Crosswhite, she's a determined, no nonsense but very invested lead. She has a wonderful group of officers working with her and her Captain - Johnny Nolasco is definitely someone we love to hate.

In this book Tracy is tasked with finding a serial killer that is killing exotic dancers with an intricate knot that basically makes them strangle themselves to death. Not only is Crosswhite up against "the Cowboy" (the killer) but she also has a stalker and Nolasco maliciously interfering with her investigation at every turn to contend with.

Tracy Crosswhite is quickly becoming a favorite of mine. The series seems to get better with each book. I'm genuinely looking forward to reading #3.
