ARC Review: Rage (Faces of Evil) [Mass Market Paperback]



I've finished reading "Rage" the 4th book in her Faces of Evil series by Debra Webb.

Product Description

The Faces of Evil Series: Book 4


When Jess Harris moved back to her Alabama hometown, she thought she'd left her past behind her. But the blood bath the new Major Crimes deputy chief finds at a murder scene is beyond even the savagery of Eric Spears, the serial killer who now haunts Jess's life with terrifying text messages. Amid eerie echoes of the Charles Manson massacre, Jess investigates the dismemberment of a cop's wife while her baby lay sleeping down the hall.

The discovery of two more headless victims makes Jess wonder if it's a gang-related slaying, a personal vendetta or something else. And the sudden reappearance of her ex-husband makes her question her future with Chief of Police Dan Burnett. Now as the net widens to include a shocking suspect, Jess realizes that the identity of the killer may lie with an autistic eight-year-old boy. With inner-city tensions at an all-time high and the community calling for blood, Jess must race to save an innocent child - and prevent a final, horrifying act of rage.

My Review:


This book opens up with a brutal dismembered murder of a police officers wife with their baby lying down the hall and it's full of rage.

Jess Harris has moved back to her Alabama hometown as the new Major Crimes deputy chief.  She is haunted by Eric Spears the serial killer who leaves her taunting text messages.  When Jess arrives at the murder scene it's like a reenactment of the Charles Manson massacre full of bloodshed.

Jess is still trying to deal with her job, living back in her hometown, trying to find a place to live, dealing with Wesley her ex-husband and Dan Burnett her boss and former fiance.

Jess is such a great character because she does things her way to solve things or gets things done outside police pro ducal.  She is smart, ambitious, very caring about people she loves and independent.

I also really like Dan because he's very protective, caring about Jess and supports her though he has to be careful since he is the Chief of Police. 

4/5

I can't wait to read Rage. I've been waiting to read this one. I agree Dan's protectiveness is one of the reasons I like him so much. I like that their relationship has been growing and hopefully it will here too even with Jess's ex-husband in the picture.

I've been wanting to try this author and I've even got one of her books ready to go on my reader. This sounds like a book that I would definitely enjoy so I'm going to have to try her sooner rather than later. Great review!
