A killer known as The Slasher is terrorizing the gentry and baffling police by leaving numerous misleading clues at the crime scenes. The clues point to all sorts of people, and the police end up wasting a lot of time pursuing dead ends. Serafina is more than willing to help, especially when one of her friends ends up becoming a victim.
Serafina is almost to the point where she'll have to admit that the feelings she has for Dylan are real when an old friend of his shows up with her child and a tale of woe. Dylan isn't sure what to make of Meredith, but she seems pretty eager to get close to Dylan. Her husband is dead and she's hoping Dylan will step in and be the man to take care of her. She also loves that he's an actor and even wants to start acting herself.
Dylan knows that Meredith is the wiser choice, since Serafina is a lady and a future between them is unlikely, but his heart isn't ready to give up. They still have a killer to catch, and Serafina's life hangs in the balance.
I liked this book a lot. I thought the murderer's motive was unconventional, but isn't that what you really want when you read a mystery? I found Meredith's character especially irritating and the truth about her was unexpected.
While it's safe to read this book alone for the sake of the mystery itself, you really get more understanding of Serafina's journey toward God if you read the first two as well. Although I don't really read much Gilbert Morris, this series was very interesting and I liked it a lot! Good Book!
