Broken angels by Richard Montanari

[Maureen]

ISBN 978-0-099-49982-4

 

Published in the UK by Arrow books in 2008.

 

The story is set in Philadelphia. Homicide detectives Kevin Byrne and Jessica Balzano are once again given a gruesome case to crack. Someone is killing innocent victims, posing them in what seems to be period costumes or vintage clothing, in a macabre parodies of children's fairy tales. Byrne is also battling with a crazed man who blames him for his wife's murder, while Balzano must look for a cop killer - who took the life of one of their own.

 

Enjoyable, although I could not understand why Karen (the first victim to be found) was left by the murderer out where she was found so easily, when he had already killed a number of victims 'safely' in his 'lair'.

Glad you found Broken Angels enjoyable Maureen

 

Maybe the killer wanted to share his work, so he started to display? Its been a long time since I've read this and I only vaguely remember it

If you liked 'The Surgeon by Tess Gerritsen', you'll like 'The Rosary Girls' too.
