Elysium Dreams is the 2nd in the chronicles of Aislinn Cain and her somewhat merry band of not quite right in the head US Marshalls.  The first book laid the groundwork with the back story of how Aislinn came to be the sociopath she is.  Elysium Dreams follows Aislinn and the Serial Crimes Tracking Unit as they hunt down a serial killer who is skinning his victims.  As with the first story, this isn't for the faint of heart.  Ms James doesn't hold back with the often gory details.  In the first book we got a lesson in medieval torture devices.  In this installment we get a lesson in the minds of psychopaths, sociopaths, their differences and how their brains work.  This book is not only told from Aislinn's point of view, but also from that of the killer.  I liked that, it let you know what was going on in the killer's head, giving you insight as to why he was doing what he was doing.  another great story.  ready for the next one.
