Review: I am such a fan of the new "Kaely Quinn Profiler" series by Nancy Mehl. I find the idea of an individual trained to detect the nuances of human behavior and translate them into emotions such a guilt, fear, anger, sadness... extremely intriguing. I know this is hardly the first time a profiler or "behavior analyst" has been the main character in a series but somehow it never gets old.
Kaely Quinn is particularly unique as she has some interesting...habits. With her own dark history as the daughter of a serial kill to contend with, Kaely is haunted by her own unique species of ghosts. Despite being brilliant at what she does, Kaely is in a constant battle to not loose herself to the unusual techniques she implements to find her killers.
I found "Fire Storm" to be quick moving and exciting. I had a fairly good idea who the 'bad guy' was early on in the book, but even though the ending didn't come as much of a surprise I still highly enjoyed this book. Kaely is a fascinating character, and I liked getting to know her in a more 'human' setting as we got dragged into Kaely's personal life. Also, I was pleased to see her partner Noah show up on scene. They make such a good team and I keep holding my breath hoping these two find a happy ending.
This was a fun read and a good mystery. I definitely recommend both book in this series. Thank-you to Graf Martin Communications and to Baker Publishing House for a copy of this book.
