Book Review - Critical Threat

Never underestimate the power of a bored serial killer, even if he is living out the rest of his days in prison. Especially when he can afford to pull strings for a puppet. Particularly when he has managed to weasel his way into a transfer to the facility where his son is trying to carry on a life out of the tainted shadow cast upon him.


Supervisory Special Agent Grace Billingsley is tasked with building a profile on a serial killer who has mannerisms similar to The Cell Phone Killer. This cannot be the work of Peter Romanos, who is already in prison. But someone is certainly paying homage to him, and Grace has to figure out who is doing this before he takes another victim. Especially when Grace unwittingly catches his interest and set off an obsession that may end up being his undoing.


Sam Monroe has spent years trying to rebuild his life and reconstruct his image after finding out his father was a serial killer and providing the evidence that led to conviction. Now working as a prison psychologist, Sam must work every day with the knowledge that his father is in the same facility and trying consistently to get Sam to answer his phone calls. As the top expert on Peter Romanos, Grace has asked Sam for input while building her current profile.


With a title like Critical Threat and in a series called Extreme Measures, it is no surprise that this  book delivers hits and hooks at every turn. Lynette Eason is at the top of her game with this series and Critical Threat is another shining star.
