The second book in the Kaely Quinn Profiler series, we pick up where book one left off. Kaely's estranged mom is very sick (cancer) and although she has numerous reservations, she goes to help her brother care for her. Although not in town in any official capacity, trouble seems to find Kaely when a series of suspicious fires set off her radar.
Kaely's FBI partner Noah Hunter returns for this installment, and more about her relationship with her brother and mother are also revealed. As the majority of this story is set during a time she is technically not working, the author found some interesting ways to solve the mystery which was developed (appropriately) slowly. As always, I found myself trying to figure out as early as possible just who the antagonist was and how all the dots connected - but the ending was surprising and not obvious, even in hindsight. The author provided ample twists and turns for a satisfying conclusion. I am already looking forward to the next book in this series!
PS: If you have not already read the first book (Mind Games), get them both and make sure to read them in order. There is just too much depth and backstory introduced in book one; read it first!
I was provided a copy of this book by Bethany House Publishers in exchange for my honest review.
