Forensic genealogy plays a part in this gripping book. I must give props to Laura Griffin; I have never seen this used in a book before. It was a nice touch as the genealogist and a detective teamed up to catch a rapist!
Rowan Healy is a forensic genealogist who is quickly making a name for herself by helping investigators track down criminals. She uses her skills to trace the family trees of criminals. This is stressful to do so she is trying to focus on helping find the biological parents of adoptees.
Jack Bruner is an Austin Detective who is trying to catch the West Campus Rapist, and contacts Rowan seeking her assistance in tracking down this elusive criminal.
I listened to the audio version of this book and enjoyed the narration. This book was gripping, and kept me on my toes, doing my best super sleuthing trying to figure out the identity of the West Campus Rapist. As the rapist/killer becomes more brazen, Rowan and Jack are up against the clock, as the tension mounts and danger grows.
The two main characters are both likeable and interesting. As they work closely together, sparks begin to fly between them!
This book had a little bit of everything (romance, tension, mystery, detective work, danger) and was an enjoyable read! I enjoyed how they worked individually and together.
