Jess Harris has begun work with Birmingham's police department after an unhealthy show-down lead to her FBI demise. A ballet instructor is found dead by one of her young students - is it a grisly murder or a tragic suicide? On the other side of town, a young teenager has gone missing and there's speculation he may be on the run from a notorious gang...A thrilling read, fast-paced and easy to relate to these characters from Birmingham. Well worth a look!I know it says this is a series, but I've not read them in any order and can still make great sense of them. This installment of the Faces of Evil series had its moments, but I didn't like it as much as the previous 2. It came off as more of a stepping stone, setting the scene for the chaos to come in the 4th book Rage. One thing I love about this series is the timeline. Only a matter of fictional days or a week passes between installments, the next book picks up within days or a week where the previous one ended. I did like the fact that this book focused a lot more on the relationships between many of the characters. Lori and Chet are still deciding how to move forward, Jess and Dan are struggling to find balance, Katherine and Jess talked more like civilized beings for the first time in decades. Another plus for this book was the gang involvement. Serial killers are rampant in suspense books and can get stale. Gangs aren't nearly as prominent, and you can really tell Ms. Webb did thorough research to the MS-13 gang before putting a real gang in a fictional story. That added a level of realism and a dose of fright to the book, being that MS-13 is indeed real and as dangerous as she portrayed it to be. I really liked that part, gang mentality is as fascinating as it is horrendous. This is book 3 of the Faces of Evil series. The series will be made up of 12 books. Obsession, Impulse, Power, and Rage (1,2,3 and 4) are available now, Revenge (5) will be available in July, Ruthless (6) will be available in August. I recommend the series and will be continuing on all the way to 12.
