Fire Storm (#02 in Kaely Quinn Profiler Series)

Fire Storm is the second book in Nancy Mehl's Kaely Quinn Profiler series. Mind Games introduced us to Kaely Quinn, daughter of a notorious serial killer and now a talented FBI profiler specialising in profiling and catching serial killers. But she's a damaged person, and most of her colleagues find it difficult to work with her and her unconventional methods. \\n\\nThe first chapter of Fire Storm isn't gripping (although the Prologue certainly was). Chapter one has a lot of backstory, describing Kaely's history and her personal problems. As such, those who haven't read Mind Games will have no trouble picking up Fire Storm. (Those who have read Mind Games may well find themselves skimming this first chapter). \\n\\nBut the story soon picks up, and turns into a white-knuckle ride with lots of twists and turns. \\nThere's plenty of conflict in the arson story, and there's also plenty of conflict at home. Kaely and her mother have never been close, which provides an added layer. And there's the nice vet and volunteer fireman next door to consider. \\n\\nI found Fire Storm a quick and fact-paced read, perfect for any time when you're worried your nails might be getting too long. Recommended for fans of Carrie Stuart Parks, Terri Blackstock, and other Christian thriller authors. \\n\\nThanks to Bethany House Publishers and NetGalley for providing a free ebook for review. \\n
