About this audiobook
Perfect suspense from New York Times bestselling author Heather Graham! The second book in her New York Confidential series.
Someone is murdering beautiful young women in the New York area and displaying them in mausoleums and underground tombs. The FBI is handling the case, with Special Agent Craig Frasier as lead.
Kieran Finnegan, forensic psychologist and part owner of Finnegan's, her family's pub, is consulting on the case. Craig and Kieran are a couple who've worked together on more than one occasion. On this occasion, though, Craig fears for the safety of the woman he loves. Because the killer is too close. The body of a young model is found in a catacomb under a two-hundred-year-old church, now deconsecrated and turned into a nightclub. A church directly behind Finnegan's in lower Manhattan.
As more women are murdered, their bodies discovered in underground locations in New York, it's clear that the police and the FBI are dealing with a serial killer. Craig and Kieran are desperate to track down the murderer, a man obsessed with female perfection. Obsessed enough to want to "preserve" that beauty by destroying the women who embody it…

How can this killer go so far as to take this ladies life that has done nothing but good in their short life? He targets them and brings them into his comfort pretending to care to have something that he will show them. Only for him to kill them and try to capture their Beauty till the end of time which is impossible.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Beautiful women are murdered and put on display. When an up and coming model is put on display in the catacombs of a former church turned night club, around the block from Finnegan’s the family pub, forensic psychologist Kieran Finnegan is asked to assist. Special Agent Craig Frasier is also on the case when the FBI takes over. The two have worked together and are also a couple. Although, I enjoyed the story and how it developed, it was missing something. Certainly a mystery, but less thrilling than expected and the finale was predictable. Not that it will stop me from reading further exploits of these two.

There was lots of suspense and mystery. What lost it the 5 star rating was that there were several holes in the story that were left unexplained....but it's possible they will come full circle in the next one. It is a quick read and I plan to continue the series....so we'll see.
