When I read the synopsis of The Body Finder, I knew I had to read it because it was so different and I never heard of anything like it.

Violet has the ability to sense the dead bodies of those who have been murdered as well as who has killed someone or something. I give her a lot of kudos for that because the dead creeps me out and I couldn't imagine being drawn to it. Or to know when you are in the vicinity of someone who has killed somebody.

A few girls goes missing and Violet starts finding the dead bodies of these girls. She begins to get tangled up in the mess of this serial killer. eventually she starts searching for him and putting herself in danger. I couldn't imagine going through that and being put at risk.

I love romance in books, and The Body Finder gave just enough of it without it taking over the whole story line. It gives you exactly what you want to satisfy that craving.

The Body Finder is so engaging and suspenseful, going at the perfect pace and isn't predictable. I found myself constantly questioning who the killer ones, even those you wouldn't think would do it.
