I'm a sucker for a strong female lead, especially when she's solving some sort of mystery. Keye Street is a former FBI agent and she's in recovery. Already I'm sold and I didn't even know what I was getting into! I wasn't aware that this was #3 in the series when I requested it but I don't feel like I missed out on enjoyment of the story as a result. I think there's some back story that would have rounded out the characters a bit more but I can go back and pick up the first two. Anyway, I was hooked from the beginning and even when I thought I had it figured out, I wasn't so sure. Williams kept me entertained until the very end and I've got a new series to add to my list of must reads. Even though I jumped into this series mid-stream, I had no trouble connecting with the characters and getting caught up in the story and the awesome crime solving skills of P.I Keye Street. It was fast paced and kept me guessing (incorrectly!) throughout. I look forward to going back and reading the two books I've missed. In this episode of the Keye Street series, she’s been hired by Sheriff Ken Meltzer from Whisper, Georgia to investigate two thirteen-year-old girls who’d been abused, killed, and dumped like trash in a highly wooded area near Lake Oconee. The Sheriff had reason to believe it is the same killer even though Melinda Cochran had been missing for eight months, and Tracy Davidson had been killed ten years prior. The two seasoned cops in the department offer little cooperation and plainly didn’t want Keye coming in and taking over their case. While Keye is putting together a profile of the killer, another girl goes missing. They know that time is not on their side when Keye receives a note that reads, “Dear Keye, I’ve started hurting her.” Keye Street describes herself best. “I am a detective, private, a bail recovery agent, a process server, and a former criminal investigative analyst for the FBI. And when I say former, I mean fired. Capital F. The Bureau likes their profilers sober.” So, we know she’s not perfect … but hey, who is? Although she’s imperfect, she’s pretty darn good with profiling the bad guys. Somehow she seems to ‘get it’ when it comes to following their way of thinking and planning. This is one of those series that I’ve managed to get caught up on. I’ve rated The Stranger You Seek with 4 stars; Stranger in the Room with 4.5 stars; and now I’m giving Don’t Talk to Strangers 5 stars! Yes, the author keeps making Keye Street more captivating and the plot more gripping. Even the secondary characters are a lovable and eccentric mix. The mystery is complete in this novel, but number three ends with a little teaser for Keye’s future, so now I’m strumming my fingers on the table waiting for number four to be released. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

HTML:??An explosive read . . . Amanda Kyle Williams sets the classic private eye novel on fire.???#1 New York Times bestselling author Lee Child Hailed by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution as ??one of the most addictive new series heroines,? Keye Street is the brilliant, brash heart of a sizzling thriller full of fear and temptation, judgments and secrets, infidelity and murder. He likes them smart. In the woods of Whisper, Georgia, two bodies are found: one recently dead, the other decayed from a decade of exposure to the elements. The sheriff is going to need help to track down an experienced predator??one who abducts girls and holds them for months before ending their lives. Enter ex??FBI profiler and private investigator Keye Street. He lives for the struggle. After a few weeks, Keye is finally used to sharing her downtown Atlanta loft with her boyfriend, A.P.D. Lieutenant Aaron Rauser. Along with their pets (his dog, her cat) they seem almost like a family. But when Rauser plunks a few ice cubes in a tumbler and pours a whiskey, Keye tenses. Her addiction recovery is tenuous at best. And loves the fear. Though reluctant to head out into the country, Keye agrees to assist Sheriff Ken Meltzer. Once in Whisper, where the locals have no love for outsiders, Keye starts to piece together a psychological profile: The killer is someone who stalks and plans and waits. But why does the sociopath hold the victims for so long, and what horrible things must they endure? When a third girl goes missing, Keye races against time to connect the scant bits of evidence. All the while, she cannot shake the chilling feeling: Something dark and disturbing lives in these woods??and it is watching her every move.
