Suspense
Chloe Larson is finishing law school when she's brutally
raped and tortured. Her boyfriend leaves her, she suffers
terrible trauma and she changes her name and moves to
Miami. As C.J. Townsend, Chloe spends 12 years building a
career as a tough prosecutor. Then her love interest, Special Agent Dominick Falconetti,
arrests Cupid, a serial killer believed to have raped and
murdered at least 10 women. C.J. recognizes Cupid, aka
William Bantling, as the man who raped her, but believing
that disclosing this could hurt the case against him, Chloe
keeps silent, battling her demons. C.J. wrestles with ethical issues, as her personal feelings
clash with her legal duties. Hoffman lures the reader into
C.J.'s mind and life, where the line between right and
wrong blurs. Throughout the trial, Hoffman offers several red herrings
that leave the reader wondering at the true identity of
Cupid, so named because he cut out his victims' hearts
while they were still beating. But even the suspenseful
trial doesn't prepare readers for the final, a chilling
conclusion.
