She lies on the bed, staring sightlessly at the ceiling. The gold cross necklace ripped from her neck and tossed onto the comforter. Around her throat is a deep red welt. But that isn’t what chills Josie’s skin. It’s the bright red lipstick smeared across the woman’s pale cheek. The mark of the Last Kiss Killer.
Racing into a burning house, Detective Josie Quinn is the only witness to Sylvia West’s body—strangled and arranged neatly on the bed—before the fire destroys the crime scene. After years in hiding, Sylvia had finally agreed to speak publicly about escaping an infamous serial killer. But catching a glimpse of a crimson kiss on Sylvia’s mouth before the flames engulf her makes Josie’s heart scream in pain: the killer has returned to seal Sylvia’s cold lips forever.
The reappearance of the Last Kiss Killer after thirteen years has the people of Denton trembling behind locked doors. How did he know Sylvia was ready to speak out? How did he find her? Josie’s only hope is trawling the victims’ case files for the missing link that eluded the very best detectives across the state for over a decade. And tracking the origins of the lipstick means she’s close…
Days later, a second new victim with the killer’s calling card surfaces, and her broken and bruised body tells Josie he’s spiraling. Forced to go deeper into the mind of a murderer than ever before, it will take everything in Josie’s power to get ahead of his next goodnight kiss. It might even cost her own life…
Filled with mystery, danger and heartfelt love from friends and family! Danger hits a little too close to home with the next in Regan’s Detective Josie Quinn series as Trinity digs deep into a past serial killer for her show and brings the monster to a head right in Josie’s beloved town. I adore Josie and her little band of misfits that she has collected throughout the years. Her husband, foster daughter, family, co-workers, friends and everyone else she can attract into the group who stole her heart years ago. Every story is addictive and filled with danger and mystery. This particular one added in the mix of knowing the background from Trinity’s show as the aftermath of the newest kill sends shockwaves throughout the town. The story was intriguing as well as exciting with shocking twists and key chemistry of the characters. Loved this book and always looking for more to come in the series.
