'Like Scarpetta? You'll LOVE Steel.' IRISH INDEPENDENT.

The first novel in the addictive USA Today million-selling CSI police procedural series introduces Forensic investigator Reilly Steel, Quantico-trained and California-born and bred, who imagined Dublin to be a far cry from bustling San Francisco, a sleepy backwater where she can lay past ghosts to rest and start anew. However, a serial killer soon puts paid to that idea.

A young man and woman are found dead in a hotel room, the evidence initially suggesting a suicide pact. But as Reilly and the investigative team dig deeper and more bodies are discovered, they soon realize that each crime has an intriguingly unique element in common, and that a cunning mind is at work, one who seeks to upset society's norms in the most twisted way.
