Week 12 Review: More Than Meets the Eye

From Goodreads:
New York Times bestselling authors Iris Johansen and Roy Johansen team up for another electrifying thriller that pits a serial killer against Kendra Michaels' heightened powers of deduction.

After scoring a plea deal in a high-profile murder trial, serial killer James Michael Barrett leads a grim parade of law enforcement officers to the body of his last victim. At the alleged burial site, the officers swing their shovels down and are met with a strange metallic sound they weren't expecting. In a blink, a terrific explosion rocks the woods, killing Barrett and most of the officers instantly.

The detonation is only the beginning of a shocking case for FBI consultant Kendra Michaels—a string of heinous murders in the style of the very-dead Barrett mysteriously continue, and it becomes clear that he may not have been working alone. As the crimes accelerate, Kendra reluctantly accepts help from college student Tricia Walton, the only survivor of Barrett's attacks. But the killer has a terrifying plan that Kendra and her team are only beginning to understand.

My Review:
This was a really great read, and such a great sequel! I love this series so much, I love watching Kendra investigate, and her relationship with Lynch. This latest case with a caught serial killer turning out to having a partner, yeah, it was so great to read! 

This latest case, with a convicted killer taking agents to one of his undiscovered bodies, and then that place being a trap and killing most that where there? Yeah, this case was pretty personal, since Metcalf was there, and was injured, and I couldn't put it down! 

This book focused a lot on Tricia, the only known person to escape Barrett. As this case got more complicated, with alphas and betas, and getting into that world, the threat to Tricia increased-and focused on Kendra as well, which wasn't great! 

Her relationship with Lynch really got some screen time in this book, between him not giving up, and some helpful time given by Tricia. I really enjoyed watching it play out, and hopefully, this time, they won't backslide, that they'll stay together! 

I had a really great time reading this book, and I can't wait to read more!
