To Catch a Killer (2017)
(Erin Blake, book 1)
Sheryl Scarborough
"To Catch a Killeris a tense, storming heartbeat of a thriller. Scarborough’s tightly woven storymerges forensic intrigue with friendship, romance, and family, nailing thedynamic stylings of Veronica Mars and the playful spirit of Bones. I could notput it down."
