He Will Be My Ruin

Maggie Sparkes arrives in New York City to pack up her best friend's belongings. Celine Gonzales has committed suicide which has left everyone stunned. Celine was a beautiful young woman who had an acceptance letter to the prestigious Hollingsworth Institute of Art. She worked so hard to achieve her dreams and they were finally becoming a reality. It doesn't make sense that she'd kill herself. But the police have conclusive evidence - too many pills combined with too much alcohol. The more Maggie goes through Celine's belongings the more she is convinced it wasn't suicide. On her search for evidence that will make the police reopen the case, Maggie puts herself in the killer's path - a killer who has no problem getting her out of the way too.

DCI Erika Foster is called to a murder scene where the victim is found dead in bed with a plastic bag over his head. As DCI Foster and her team are looking for clues as to who could have committed the murder, another victim is found dead in bed with a plastic bag over his head. All they know at this point is that there is a calculated serial killer out there stalking the victims before going in for the kill. What could possibly link the victims to their killer? DCI Foster will do whatever it takes to find out. Another great book in the DCI Erika Foster series! It's well-written. It's descriptive, it's vivid, it's a page-turner. It has strong characters, great pacing. I can't say enough good things.
