Durante varios veranos, el terror se adueña de los residentes de Georgia cuando las temperaturas ascienden y el termómetro alcanza los cuarenta grados, porque con el implacable calor llega también un cruel asesino. En cada ocasión secuestra a dos muchachas y espera a que se descubra el primer cadáver: en él se hallan todas las pistas para encontrar a la segunda vÃctima, abocada a una muerte lenta pero certera. La policÃa nunca consigue llegar a tiempo y los cuerpos siempre se recuperan meses después, en lugares remotos y aislados. Tras tres años de inactividad, llega a Atlanta una fuerte ola de calor: es tiempo de matar... Y será Kimberly Quincy, estudiante de la Academia del FBI, quien tropiece con la primera vÃctima. Comienza la cuenta atrás. FBI Profiler series #4 started slow, with a focus on Kimberly Quincy's FBI training at Quantico. Not as robust a character as Rainie or her father, we are quickly dragged into a dormant serial killer's awakening. Killing women in pairs, he leaves challenging clues with the first to point to the second, providing an opportunity to rescue her. Kimberly takes a leave from training and goes off to try to save a victim with the primary investigator from the earlier murders, a Georgia Bureau of Investigations detective. We meet Pierce Quincy whose specialty is profiling...and Rainie Connor, who are partners in a private investigating firm that the police have called in to help. The police are beginning to believe that there may be an inside implication. Not only that but this killer leaves clues on the body that points to the next victim. It's an interesting plot and a fantastic story but it did become bogged down with too many characters causing the reader to sometimes have to go back to see how that person fit into the storyline. I was slightly disappointed with the killers motive but that didn't distract from an otherwise well written and compelling adventure. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
