My review: Kate Brady's novel Last to Die is a romantic thriller with a plot that draws you in, characters that hold your attention, and a serial killer that isn't so easy to figure out!
The female protagonist Detective Dani Cole, is saddened when she gets a call that a young girl who she had helped get off the streets has been murdered. Rosie McNamara had been working as a prostitute when Dani helped her turn her life around, she had gotten a real job and made amends with her family, but she has just become the latest victim  for a serial killer.Seems this killers victims are young prostitutes, but actually they all have something else in common.
 When the killer learns that Dani is on the case he starts leaving her little messages. Can she figure out who the killer is before she becomes his next victim?
The characters in this book worked very well together, Dani's character had a past that wasn't so great that made her easy to relate to, and Mitch Sheridan's character also has some issues from his past that are haunting him. You can really understand them and what makes them who they are.
This book was an edge of your seat kind of book. The author doesn't make it easy to figure out who the killer is, but she does a great job of letting us inside his head, letting us see why he feels justified in what he is doing.
 If your a fan of physiological thrillers with a little romance thrown in, and you like a book that keeps you guessing then pick up this book you won't be disappointed.

Even though I was provided a copy of this book for review by the publisher, thanks Anna, it in no way alters my opinion of this book.
