Synopsis from Goodreads: Some call him friend or boss. Some call him husband or dad. Some call him son, even a favorite son. But the only title that matters to him is the one the media has given him: The Poet.

A name he earned from the written words he leaves behind after he kills that are as dark and mysterious as the reason he chooses his victims. One word, two, three, a story in a poem, a secret that only Detective Samantha Jazz can solve. Because he’s writing this story for her.

She just doesn’t know it yet.

My Review: This is a very dark thriller that was very well done. It was fast paced after a bit of a lsow start. It has a lot more of a police procedural vibe than I was expecting but I actually liked that more. I really liked the main character, Detective Jazz, and I think that the next book in the series will be even better!
