As a single mother and one of the few female Rangers in Texas history, she has had to work twice as hard to rank among the best cops in the Lone Star State. But when megawealthy businessman Edward Lucas III is found murdered along with his mistress, their bodies posed in grotesque ways, Sara quickly senses that this will be the deadliest case of her career. While others focus the investigation on Lucas’s estranged wife, Sarah disagrees and hunts a suspect only she believes in. Yet nothing in her career could have prepared her for the horror of a young man who believes he has been sent from heaven to massacre innocent people. When Sarah picks up on the killer’s elusive trail, following his scent all over Texas, the psychopath makes her his next target. And as Sarah closes in, the madman sets his sights on all she holds dear. Singularity features a feisty, funny, and tough heroine and a truly creepy killer, as it races along to a chilling and unexpected climax.

I accidently discovered this author by randomly picking her second book in the Sarah Armstrong trilogy, The Killing Storm. I was so happy with that novel, that I decided to read the other books in the trilogy. This book is fast paced and draws the reader in from page one. I like how the author doesn't waste time describing transitions between scenes and constantly gets to the drama of the story. That is what keeps the pace so fast paced. I love the relationship Sarah has with her daughter and mother and the balance between being a mom and a Ranger is told in a very real way. Basically that the balance is hard, no matter what circumstances you are in. Although we have heard the story of a killer committing his atrocities in the name of God, the pace is so fast the Casey keeps you on the edge of your seat the entire time. I highly recommend this book. I think Kathryn Casey's Sarah Armstrong could be the next profiler in fiction that readers have been craving. 4 stars! ...more
