Homicide detective Claire Morgan has a knack for always
being where some murderous weirdo creep decides to start
killing people. Temporarily moving to New Orleans from the
Missouri Ozarks with her lover Dr. Black doesn't seem to
have change that scenario at all. Black is hoping the
change of location will help Claire recuperate from her
last horrific case. But psychotic killers never take a
holiday.
When a mutilated body is found not far from where Claire is
staying, she's more than unnerved -- especially since a
photo of her face is found stuck to a voodoo doll at the
shocking crime scene. It's obvious the killer has targeted
Claire, but for what reason? She hasn't been in the area
that long, even though she is working for the local police
in the parish where the body was found. Of course, this
means she's involved in the investigation. As the case
progresses and another dead body is found disfigured in the
same sadistic way, it becomes even more personal for
Claire, as well as Black.
MOSTLY MURDER, by the talented Linda Ladd, is yet
another spine-chilling psychological thriller featuring
intrepid homicide detective Claire Morgan. As with all five
of the previous books in this spellbinding series, MOSTLY
MURDER tells a startling tale of murder -- and how the
heinous killer is brought to justice. As always, Ms. Ladd's
characterization is realistic and skillful, while the
complex plot moves along rapidly to a satisfying
conclusion.
She suffered a terrifying coma. She survived a serial
killer's obsession. Now homicide detective Claire Morgan
hopes to forget the nightmare of her Missouri past in the
city of New Orleans. But when a body is discovered near her
home, her darkest fears come rushing back...
Mostly Superstition
Surrounded by candles and skulls, the victim is bound to an
altar like a human sacrifice. More disturbing to Claire is
the voodoo doll in the woman's hands. A doll pierced with
pins and wearing a picture on its face. A picture of Claire
Morgan...
Mostly Murder
Claire doesn't believe in voodoo. But she does believe in
the power of superstition to warp a person's mind and feed
a killer's madness. It is here, in the muddy bayous where
it festers, that Claire must face her fear head on-and meet
the man who's marked her for death...
