Book #5 of the Harry Starke detective novels is once again extremely compelling; full of intrigue and suspense. This one keeps you on your toes. It has many murders, unlike most of the other books before it. It is very unlikely you will be able to figure out major clues before Harry does which always adds great appeal to the series. And, like all other Harry Starke novels, each is great as a stand alone book while filling you in on what you need or want to know in the book.

This one is about the disappearance and subsequent death of the daughter of the Chattanooga Chief of police in a high society college for girls. Harry and his team of investigators work closely with his old partner of the police department, Detective Lieutenant Kate Gazzara to solve the murder. During the intensive investigation, Harry discovers that three others have been murdered as well. His job is to find the correlation between each of the murders and try to find the one defining factor to make the murderer kill all of them. This gets very interesting very fast; and may even leave you out of breath.

Thank you to Mr. Blair Howard for giving me a free copy of this book to read and give my honest review. ( )
