Obsession has several layers to it (much like an onion as Shrek would say). On the top we have the story of a series of kidnappings of young women that are unrelated on the surface. Thankfully some characters follow their guy and keep looking - the kidnappings are very related in a very twisted way. The police need Special Agent Jess Harris to put the pieces together - and it's a very interesting and disturbed ride that she has to take to get there.

The next layer we have is Jess, herself. She is running away in a sense. Running away from a career quickly going under, and from the serial killer that helped put it there. This theme hovers in the background, occasionally making itself known so you don't forget it about it (it's important later).

We also have the layer that is Jess and Dan, the police chief. With quite the history between them they struggle with their feelings for each other and how to act together so many years later. Theirs is a turbulent relationship throughout the book, never quite sure what they are to each other.

A very exciting read, with a very HUGE cliffhanger - please have book two ready to go or you will be up all night waiting to go get it and wondering what happens next.
