A Perfect Evil by Alex Kava

Serial killer Ronald Jeffreys was executed for three murders. Three months after his death, the body of a boy is found, killed in the same style as Jeffreys' victims. Is there a copycat killer on the loose? Or is this the real thing?

Any book with the author Alex Kava on the front is an auto pick up for me.

I've read the Maggie O'Dell books after this but don't think I've read this, the first.

This book is brilliant!

One of those page turners I absolutely couldn't put down.
The suspense is thrilling and the chemistry between the protagonists...phew! Burns up the pages.

Absolutely love Alex Kava's writing.

This was an interesting, although cliche book. As the first book in a series I can give it the benefit of the doubt that Alex Kava is just honing her craft and there are bound to be some things that will be improved upon during the run of the series.

Her heroine is a jaded FBI agent with 8 years of experience and a chip on her shoulder from the last case she worked on. She stumbles onto a case in Nebraska dealing with small town mentalities, the church, and little boys being kidnapped. This novel suffered from a villain who was too easy to figure out, a love story that seemed a bit too rushed, and an ending that leaves you disappointed with the outcome (even if they're prepping for the next book).

Overall it was an average thriller but I think I still might give the next book a try because I believe it has so much possibility to be something great.
