Author: Anne Frasier
Published: July 1st 2020 by Thomas & Mercer
Format: Kindle Edition, 286 pages
Genre: Police Procedural
Series: Inland Empire #1
After a slow start, and more than a few similarities to Joanna Schaffhausen’s Ellery Hathaway series, Anne Frasier finally takes the reader down the road to a confrontation with the one character that should not have been a surprise.
FBI Profiler Reni Fisher thought she had put the past behind her. Her father, the Inland Empire Killer, Benjamin Fisher, is behind bars, and she has moved on. What she did not expect was the flashback that almost put her partner in the grave and started her life on a spiral thirty years after her father's incarceration. Now Ben Fisher wants to show the investigators where the bodies are hidden. With the original investigator retired, Daniel Ellis has taken over the case. The only fly in the pudding, before Fisher will divulge his hiding spots, Reni must agree to be part of the unit, setting in motion a nightmare that will not end until each character is laid bare.
Though laying the deliberate groundwork, Anne Frasier dawdles through most of the first half of the book. There could have been more spice and subterfuge, yet we plod our way through until that one moment where everything changes, and the reader cannot race to the end quickly enough.
