Ten victims, each with pale skin and long dark hair. All have been slashed across the throat, the same red lipstick smeared across their lips.
In the mid-1980s the Snow White Killer terrorized the streets of Nashville, Tennessee. Then suddenly the murders stopped. A letter from the killer to the police stated that his work was done.
Now four more bodies are found, marked with his fatal signature. The residents of Nashville fear a madman has returned, decades later, to finish his sick fairy tale. Homicide Lieutenant Taylor Jackson believes the killings are the work of a copycat killer who's even more terrifying. For this monster is meticulously honing his craft as he mimics famous serial murders...proving that the past is not to be forgotten.

July 20, 2009: this book is one of the best i have EVER read. i had stopped reading for a while and luckily got my hands on this at the library. It literally took me ONE day to finish. It definitely kept me going til the very end. She may be new, but she is definitely my favorite so far. I went this afternoon and placed holds on her other two books. Unfortunately i was not aware that 14 was the second book in her series. So therefore i am going to read the first one and the third one. Definitely anticipating her fourth book coming out. im trying to go to barnes and noble store near me this week to buy copies. i highly recommend her books.
