  <default-description>Once, Special Agent Smoky Barrett hunted serial killers for the FBI.  She was one of the best&amp;#8211;until a madman terrorized her family, killed her husband and daughter, and left her face scarred and her soul brutalized.  Turning the tables on the killer, Smoky shot him dead&amp;#8211;but her life was shattered forever.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Now Smoky dreams about picking up her weapon again.  She dreams about placing the cold steel between her lips and pulling the trigger one last time. Because for a woman who&amp;#8217;s lost everything, what is there left to lose? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;She&amp;#8217;s about to find out.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In all her years at the Bureau, Smoky has never encountered anyone like him&amp;#8211;a new and fascinating kind of monster, a twisted genius who defies profilers&amp;#8217; attempts to understand him. And he&amp;#8217;s issued Smoky a direct challenge, coaxing her back from the brink with the only thing that could convince her to live.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The killer videotaped his latest crime&amp;#8211;an act of horror that left a child motherless&amp;#8211;then sent a message addressed to Agent Smoky Barrett.  The message is enough to shock Smoky back to work, back to her FBI team. And that child awakens something in Smoky she thought was gone forever.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Suddenly the stakes are raised. The game has changed.  For as this deranged monster embarks on an unspeakable spree of perversion and murder, Smoky is coming alive again&amp;#8211;and she&amp;#8217;s about to face her greatest fears as a cop, a woman, a mother&amp;#8230;and a merciless killer&amp;#8217;s next victim.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;From the Hardcover edition.&lt;/i&gt;</default-description>

    <body><![CDATA[I really liked this book.  Very gritty, very descriptive, very fast-paced.  If you have trouble with violence, or the vivid description there of, this is not a book for you.  But if love mystery, cop-detective series, or a real page-turner, this will be up your alley.  I couldn't wait to read this b...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/57694708">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I liked the characters in this book. The good guys and gals from the FBI and their families and friends. The crimes in this book were especially evil, twisted and sick. Just the way I like them! However, the writing was sometimes too stilted and flowery. There were also a number of mistakes, editing...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/24997948">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I find these books good but terribly hard to read. The author is a bit too fond of the violence but the plots are good and the main character compleeing. I probably won't be able to read this author long-term due to the graphic nature of some scenes, however. ]]></body>
