This story is fantastic, and I've been glued to it.  It reminds me somewhat of the TV series, "Criminal Minds."  At Muir Beach in California, Jenna and Robert are enjoying walking along the high cliffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean.  Jenna is thrilled with her new lover who strolled into her life just a week earlier.  Little did she fear him when he walked up behind her, wrapped her in his arms, and calmly sliced her throat and tossed her off the cliff.  On an FBI aircraft enroute to San Francisco, a team from the Special Serial Crimes Division (SSCD) has been requested by the SFPD to assist in many like killings.  Lead investigator is Nate Banks, assisted by Dylan Dawes, and female investigator Jerry Forbes.  Jerry will be working undercover, to bait the unknown subject.  Another member will join them from Interpol, Ethan Barnes, as there have been similar killings in Europe: three in London, four in Italy.  All the women have the same physical description -- very tall, slender, dark brown hair, and very beautiful.  All the murders evolved around women connected with very rich men as mistresses.  Ethan will be working with Jerry undercover, which she's not too happy about partnering up with a total stranger ... until she meets him and is hit with electrical shocks of attraction to his handsome appearance. Interpol has dubbed the villain, Casanova Killer.  Nate, Dylan and Jerry have formed a tight investigative team and in time, Dylan becomes concerned about her safety as he doesn't really trust Ethan.  Perhaps he is just jealous? The thriller is superbly written, plot development excellent, story line very potent and engaging.  I'll be reading more of this series of novels offered by fantastic Author Tallulah Grace.
