Serial killer Eric Spears isn't finished with Deputy Chief
Jess Harris and he's bent on ruining her most precious
memories and destroying those closest to her. Always one
step behind, Jess can't shake the fear that Spears' network
of fans is far more powerful than she'd first believed. When
she's called in to investigate the unrelated vicious murders
of two young women who've had their hearts removed, Jess
knows that in order to find justice for these women, she has
to push aside her fear and do her job. But can this new case
be part of Spears's plan to destroy her?
VICIOUS by Debra Webb is the seventh book in the Faces of
Evil series. For the last year, I've been told how great
Webb's novels are. Fantastic, terrifying, chilling, and a
must read are some of the ways she's been described. For one
reason or another (mainly my to-be-read-list grows
exponentially) I've put off reading any of her novels until
now. I could just kick myself! VICIOUS has everything;
suspense, mystery, romance, and unexpected plot twists. I
could barely set the story aside once I started reading. I
can't wait to read the first six books I missed and there's
a new addition to the series coming out in March.
For me, VICIOUS really excels when it focuses on the details
of the investigation. Webb gives no detail that isn't
important. All the little parts of the puzzle, the seemingly
unconnected actions, and the choice of words is carefully
crafted to push the story forward. All the clues are there,
but Webb still manages to surprise her readers by connecting
those clues in unexpected ways. The characters are all
hiding something. It's so much fun to try and unravel the
motivations and actions for all the characters to see which
side of the line they fall on.
VICIOUS by Debra Webb is a superb thriller that will not
disappoint. Intricately plotted, unexpected plot twists,
emotionally high stakes, and a killer who has nothing to
lose make this one of the best novels I've read this year.
Serial killer Eric Spears is far from done. He has chosen his next victim and Deputy Chief Jess Harris knows it's only a matter of time until he comes for her. The murders are vicious, the killer relentless. Has Birmingham's major crimes team run into its most baffling and deadly case yet? Don't miss the next thrilling installment of the Faces of Evil!
I cannot believe that you waited this long to read Debra Webb either! Although I have read Debra Webb's books for years, I think that the Faces of Evil series is her best work to date.
I love this series and was hooked when I read the first book in the series, Obsession. The characters are great and the suspense is outstanding!
While Vicious is a stand-alone book, I guarantee that after reading Vicious, you will go back and read the earlier books. Do yourself a favor and read them back-to-back!!! (Marijane Diodati 4:43pm December 23, 2013)
