Today's book is: Opening Moves by Steven James
In The Bowers Files novels, FBI Special Agent Patrick Bowers has stopped
some of the most vicious serial killers ever imagined. Now, in the
fifth exciting installment, author Steven James takes readers back to
Bowers’s terrifying beginning.
Milwaukee, 1997. In a city
reeling from the crimes of Jeffrey Dahmer, a series of gruesome
kidnappings and mutilations draw authorities into a case like nothing
they’ve ever seen. Cops think a Dahmer copycat is on the loose.
But Patrick Bowers, working as a homicide detective, suspects this is
more than an ode to the infamous cannibal. When he discovers that the
shocking acts reference some of the most notorious and macabre killers
in our nation’s history, the investigation spirals into a nightmare of
manipulation, brutality, and terror.
Wielding groundbreaking
investigative techniques, Bowers must now face off with a killer who
will stop at nothing to get his message out to the world. Chilling,
gritty, and packed with twists and turns, Opening Moves is Steven
James’s most heart-pounding novel yet.
My Thoughts:
This is the prequel to the "Patrick Bowers" series. It was fun to see Patrick before all the other books happen. I have to admit, this was a pretty gruesome book. So, be prepared for that. James doesn't hold back on describing the horrible acts that these murders commit. Definately creepy. But, as always with James, the action is non-stop and captured my attention from the first page to the last. I really like Bowers, so it was particularly fun to see some of Bower's quirks (like coffee snob) before they develop. There's not a real "Christian" thing going on here, but the development of that occurs with Bowers over the series. Steven James continues to be at the top of my list for favorite suspense authors!
