In Seattle Slayer, we meet Edith Parks, a post-doctorate forensic psychology intern with the FBI, thrust into her first major case: profiling a vigilante who targets individuals connected by their own heinous crimes. As Edith constructs the killer’s psychological portrait, she juggles her burgeoning career and a tangled love life. The deeper she delves into the Seattle Slayer’s mind, the more she’s forced to confront her beliefs about justice, principles, and human depravity. Can she complete the profile before the killer strikes again – or will her focus make her the next target?
Fogerty creates her thriller with vivid, flawed characters whose personal struggles bleed into their professional lives, creating messy, relatable tension. Readers root for them, hooked on the emotional stakes and eager to see what happens next.
The novel’s immersive atmosphere places you squarely in Seattle’s shadows alongside Edith and her team. Every twist tightens the vise – palms slick, pulse racing – you wonder who the Slayer will punish next.
Seattle Slayer is a gripping, high-octane ride that balances heart-pounding suspense with Edith’s raw vulnerability. My only quibble: the clues telegraph the killer’s identity a touch too early. Still, I devoured every page and can’t wait to follow Edith deeper into Fogerty’s FBI Thriller series.
I’d like to thank Annabelle J Fogerty for the opportunity to Alpha/Beta/ARC for Seattle Slayer. As always, all opinions and reviews are of my own volition. I have not been promised any compensation, current or future, by the author or publisher for a fair and honest review.
