Psychiatrist Dr. Gwen Moore is an expert on killers. She's spent a decade treating California's most depraved predators and unlocking their motives--predators much like the notorious Bloody Heart serial killer, whose latest teenage victim escaped and then identified local high school teacher Randall Thompson as his captor. The case against Thompson as the Bloody Heart Killer is damning--and closed, as far as Gwen and the media are concerned. If not for one new development... Defense attorney Robert Kavin is a still-traumatized father whose own son fell prey to the BH Killer. Convinced of Thompson's innocence, he steps in to represent him. Now Robert wants Gwen to interview the accused, create a psych profile of the killer and his victims, and help clear his client's name. As Gwen and Robert grow closer and she dives deeper into the investigation, grave questions arise. So does Gwen's suspicion that Robert is hiding something--and that he might not be the only one with a secret"--Back cover.… (more)

I'm not normally into this genre of book, but the twist that came, phew, that was something else! Quite enjoyable. ( )

The Good Lie. A.R. Torre. 2021. When Dr. Gwen Moore learns that John Abbot has been found stabbed to death beside his wife. She fears she should have taken his fantasies about killing his wife seriously and notified the police. Meanwhile Scott Harden has escaped from the notorious pervert who has tortured and killed 6 teen aged boys. He identifies a teacher as the notorious Bloody Heart Killer. The father of one of the murdered boys, a well-known defense attorney, decides to defend the teacher because he doesn’t believe he is guilty. He hires Gwen to draw up a psychological profile of the killer to prove the teacher is innocent. Twisted, violent, and suspenseful, great. Good to read on the treadmill! ( )
