In a busy train station in Europe, a tourist finds a finger in a train station locker—and soon after, a matching body is discovered on the train. A new serial killer is at work, more cunning and diabolical than anyone can imagine—and FBI Special Agent is the only one who can stop him before he strikes again.
FBI special agent Adele Sharp—a German-and-French raised American with triple citizenship—is made to criss-cross America and Europe to bring criminals to justice. But as more bodies begin to turn up, each missing a finger and abandoned on a train, Adele must race to uncover the meaning behind this twisted signature.
Can she enter the killer’s mind in time to save the next victim?
Or will this case take a darker turn than even Adele could imagine?

Adele is recovering from a stab wound and John is trying to take care of her when they are requested to work on a new case. Someone is killing people and leaving pieces of them to be found in train stations, always leaving a grisly scene behind and a traumatized person who finds the corpse. She continues to be haunted by the killing of the Painter, and she is told that an inquiry on his death will happen. The body count continues to rise and the duo, Adele and John, are racing against time to find the culprit and understand the reasons he went on a killing spree. The end is totally unexpected as it involves deep changes in the lives of both agents and a discovery that will start haunting John even more. A great plot is put together in a fast-paced story that gets the reader's attention from the beginning to the end. I received a free copy of this book from the author in exchange for my honest opinion.
Adele and John are called to investigate some murders at train stations. The killer is leaving parts of the bodies with a camera and phone & calls whoever finds the body part to lead them to the body. Will they be able to stop this killer who is busy adding victims to be found? Can't wait for the next in this series.
I have enjoyed book in this series and this is no different. I love the suspense and the sarcasm of the characters. I love watching the relationship between Adele and John play out. Can’t wait for the next book!
