Sweetheart

If you love Heartsick, you'll love the return of serial killer Gretchen Lowell and Detective Archie Sheridan in Sweetheart, the second installment in Chelsea Cain's Archie Sheridan thriller series.  They were back in this compelling thriller with reporter Susan Ward. She was now after a hot scandal for her newspaper. But when she closed in for the scoop, tragedy struck before it could happen. And then more dead bodies turned up, which might have a link to the case. For Archie, it was a much different story. With his relationship to his ex-wife Debbie dangling on the line, his obsession with Gretchen grew. When she escaped from the prison's infirmary, she was now after Archie's family and then with Archie. On the run, it was now up to Susan and Henry to find them, before they were engulfed by a wildfire, and Archie's health was declining, right after she escaped from their clutches. We really saw how both of them struggled with their obsessions and tied  up to one complicated case. What a rush!

This was another spine-tingling thriller. I continued to care about Archie, when he grew sicker in poor health. He needed to take better care of himself and get over this obsession of his. I did feel worried about his family and with Susan and Henry, too. I still love the central Portland location for the series. This would make you feel numb and shocked at the same time. I continue to hate Gretchen more and more. Great drama, good action and suspense, and plenty of intrigue, right to the end.
