Book Description

Publication Date: May 3, 2005 | Series: Zebra Romantic Suspense

The victims are all young and beautiful - the best and brightest. That's why they have to die. That's why they have to be added to a twisted killer's private collection until perfection can be reached. But perfection is so hard to attain...FBI Agent M.K. Shaughnessy's gut tells her that the recent deaths at Chesapeake Bay College are far from accidents. She suspects they're the work of a serial slayer whose grisly work has only just begun. But a mere hunch won't be enough to convince her stubborn new partner, veteran agent Adam Thomas. What they need is solid evidence - the kind that will only turn up with the next dead body. Now, as M.K. immerses herself in the murders, matching wits with a cold-blooded psychopath, she senses there's something familiar about the pattern, some crucial connection she's over-looked because she's just too close to see it. And that may cost her. For the killer's gruesomely macabre project is growing more shocking by the day, and the collection requires a finishing touch...a trophy more precious than anything that has come before...

5.0 out of 5 stars WHAT SHE CAN'T SEE by Hunter Morgan, July 12, 2005

What she can't see might be right in front of her but she can't see it because of the unexpected. Hunter Morgan is at the top of her game with WHAT SHE CAN'T SEE as she joins two opposite people, Adam Thomas, an Hawaii Five O type FBI agent who's smart but very laid back, and Special Agent M.K. Shaughnessy who does everything by the book and abhors swearing. These two clash and bash as they are on the search of a horrible serial killer.

You will love the banter between Adam and M.K. Adam is constantly teasing M.K. about what her initials stand for and M.K. is trying to get him to dress better for an FBI agent. Guess who wins? Could the two even fall in love? Oh, my, it gives me chills. The story moves at a rapid pace with tight suspense and fantastic characters that will keep you reading far into the night as you get to the amazing conclusion. Hunter Morgan is an author that keeps you guessing. I find her in league with Patricia Cornwell and Karin Slaughter. Don't miss this fine author or you will be sorry.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another Thilling Read!!!, December 22, 2005

Morgan Hunter's latest effort is a page turning effort that incorporates two very strong leads with a diabolically evil killer. The end result...a strong suspense read.

M.K. Shaughnessy has just been paired up with a new partner. He's irreverent, and male. Two things M.K. has issues with. Or at least she does until she starts working with Adam. Their first case is put in their laps due to political wrangling. What seems to be one isolated case soon turns into more. M.K. thinks things seem just a tad to familiar when it comes to their new serial killing case. The victims are college students and the murders are grisly. Problem though is her partner, Adam is going to be stubborn on this and the longer he refuses to see what M.K. sees the more dangerous the killer will become. But the stakes are raised when Liza Jane, Adam's daughter starts poking into the investigation of the first case it brings the focus on her and now Liza Jane is facing danger and the chemistry between M.K. and Adam is heating up. Will M.K and Adam be able to catch this killer before the ultimate victim becomes the trophy of this unbalanced killer?

This was an amazing read. Plenty of twist and turns, one truly evil killer and two strong leads that do not over power the storyline makes this a story with reading. Hunter Morgan is a fine author and one that makes this genre her own.

4.0 out of 5 stars fine romantic police procedural, April 27, 2005

(#1 Hall OF FAME REVIEWER)    (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   

This review is from: What She Can't See (Zebra Romantic Suspense) (Paperback)

The four college students are nasty to the workers in the China Garden restaurant calling the waiter a faggot among other abominable behavior. After leaving, Drew Palmer, son of a senator, drives too fast and they crash. Gas is all over the place with the students trapped inside the vehicle when a Good Samaritan stops to help. The newcomer takes and ignites Drew's lighter before tossing it inside the Jeep.

The police assume that a tragic vehicular accident occurred as there is no contrary evidence. Still since a senator's son was involved, the FBI takes a close look at the incident. Agents Adam Thomas and M.K. Shaughnessy conclude no foul play happened. A second similar death of a Chesapeake Bay student occurs. While M.K. wonders if a serial killer is on the loose, Adam thinks the college crowd is just being stupid. His daughter Liza Jane is writing an editorial for the college newspaper agreeing with M.K. Pushed by the two women in his life, his daughter and his partner, Adam reluctantly agrees to dig deeper not realizing that if he ignores his instincts these two females he cherishes could be the next victims.

Fans of romantic police procedurals will take immense pleasure in the exciting action-paced WHAT SHE CAN'T SEE. The story line is fast-paced but insures the heroic trio is full figured characters while providing glimpses of the culprit. Though the final explanation of motive seems like a tidying of the investigation, fans will welcome Hunter Morgan's fine thriller and want more "She ..." tales like this one and SHE'LL NEVER TELL from this fine author.
