Killing Sam Knight by John Cassian is another triumph for him.  He has managed to intertwine romance and murder along with eroticism to create a book that keeps you into it from the beginning.Samuel H Knight met Supervisory Special Agent Kathleen Underwood of the FBI when she was investigating serial murders in Galveston.  She knows who and what he really is and loves him for it.  Now she wants him to teach her to kill like he does.  Kathleen is investigating the murders of Tornado Ali.  Tornado Ali kills her victims and keeps their bodies until a tornado hits and then she puts them out.  Her signature is flayed skin on half their bodies.  When a huge tornado hits Jewelville, Oklahoma she has Samuel called to the scene in his role as FEMA so they can work together.  Their victim, Mandy Oppenheimer, seems to be perfect; but as they attempt to kill her, things begin going wrong and she gets away.  As they search for Mandy, they find much more than they bargained for.  What does Mandy have to do with Tornado Ali?Part of the fascination with this particular book is it is based around Oklahoma City and tornado alley where I live.  The descriptions of the damage line up with the damage done by tornados in Moore, Oklahoma, except for the bodies of course.  The additional use of real places like Tuttle and the Oklahoma City Police Department simply add to the reality of the story.  I can’t wait to see what John  has in his pen next
