Summary

Chelsea Cain's novels featuring Detective Archie Sheridan and serial killer Gretchen Lowell have captivated fans through two nail-biting entries, Heartsick and Sweetheart, both multi-week best-sellers on the New York Times, USA Today, and Publishers Weekly lists.

Here Gretchen is still on the loose and Archie is still hospitalized after his ploy to catch her went spectacularly wrong. They've entered a detente of sorts: Archie agrees not to kill himself if she agrees not to kill anyone else. But suddenly there's something else to contend with that might be worse - a zealous fan of Gretchen's, paying homage to the Beauty Killer by luring Archie and reporter Susan Ward to the scene of a grisly murder. At least they hope it's the work of someone new, for the prospect of Gretchen breaking her promise is more than Archie can bear.

Critic reviews

"With her preternatural grasp of pacing and ability to create vivid characters with astonishing economy, Cain expertly drives her narrative." ( Los Angeles Times)
"We've been down Hannibal Lecter Avenue many times, and these two books shouldn't work . . . but they do. Chalk it up to excellent writing and Cain's ferocious sense of humor. The Portland [Oregon] setting is refreshing too." (Stephen King)

One of my favourite authors and series of all tim.

I listen to this series often and follow Chelsea on social media for snippets and they get me salivating every single time. I just devour the books and can't wait for the next. I love the reader, she's melodic and working but fun to listen to. Altogether an awesome read...

Evil at Heart

Excellent book, 1st part of a thriller series about detective Archie Sheridan, excellent narration by Carolyn McCormick! Very hard to stop listening, want you to know what is going to happen next. I recommend this book with all my heart! You nearly feel like you are in the middle of the crime scenes. Detailed and interesting. You won't be dissapointed.
