Ladykiller is an exciting thriller that I really enjoyed. The excitement just keeps building and by the end, you will be stunned at the conclusion.

A serial killer is on the loose. Detective Dave Dillon and Detective Jamie Lord have been assigned the case. Clues keep pointing the police to The Westside Crisis Center. The crisis center seems to be the only connection between the victims. One victim is a young mother, another is a prostitute and yet another an executive and this is just the beginning of the list of victims.

Jamie Lord has her sights set on Det. Dillon but when Dillon meets Megan from the Crisis Center, he is immediately attracted to her. Megan seems to be attracted to Dillon as well but Nita, Megan’s best friend and mentor at the crisis center, is not in favor of the match.

Ace, a petty crook, is fascinated with Nita. He even puts himself forth as the serial killer to lead the police away from investigating the crisis center.

To say more would give away too much of the plot but I can highly recommend this book.
