Description

About the Author Mike Omer has been a journalist, a game developer, and the CEO of Loadingames, but he can currently be found penning the next in his series of thrillers featuring forensic psychologist Zoe Bentley. Omer loves to write about two things: real people who could be the perpetrators or victims of crimes―and funny stuff. He mixes these two loves quite passionately into his suspenseful and often macabre mysteries. Omer is married to a woman who diligently forces him to live his dream, and he is father to an angel, a pixie, and a gremlin. He has two voracious hounds that wag their tails quite menacingly at anyone who dares approach his home.

Features & Highlights

  • A forensic psychologist fights a mental war against two serial killers in this disturbing thriller from Mike Omer,
  • Washington Post
  • and Amazon Charts bestselling author of
  • A Killer’s Mind
  • .
  • An online video of a girl clawing at the ceiling of her own grave could be the worst thing FBI forensic psychologist Zoe Bentley has ever seen. Perhaps even more disturbing is the implication of the video’s title: “Experiment Number One.”
  • Zoe and her partner, Special Agent Tatum Gray, work as fast as they can to find the monster behind the shocking video, but soon another one shows up online, and another girl turns up dead. Meanwhile, a different murderer is on Zoe’s mind. Rod Glover has been tormenting her since childhood, and his latest attack is a threatening photo of himself with Zoe’s sister. As Glover’s threats creep toward action, Zoe’s torn between family and duty.
  • Zoe must think fast to prevent another murder. With her own family’s safety on the line, Zoe feels she’s never been in more danger. And while she’s always known her job could send her to an early grave, she always assumed she’d be dead first.

Riveting

You’ll want to read it straight through. Great read, with just the right amount of twist & turns. Some of it got really uncomfortable when reading, played right into some of my own fears. But love being scared.

Zoe Bentley is awesome

Ooooohhh I love me some detective crime mystery murder intrigue! I discovered this guy many years ago and thought to see what he has written since his first (fabulous) Zoe Bentley novel and wow! I found 5 novels and one novella. I have been tearing through these the past 2 weeks with joyful abandon. This novel is the second of so far three books in the Zoe Bentley series. Zoe is a consultant to the FBI profiling department. She has a nemesis: a serial rapist/murderer whom she uncloaked for his first time when she was just a teenaged girl. This novel deals with a serial murderer in Texas, while Zoe stresses out that her sister Andrea is being stalked by her nemesis back home (which must be near Boston given the strong Boston accent the narrator uses). I really love profiling novels, and Omer does this thing where he writes stuff from the perpetrator's perspective so we can see when Zoe gets it right and when she doesn't. I recommend for all crime mystery fans.

Keeps you on the edge of your seat.

I have read all 3 of the Zoe Bentley books by Mike Omer. I loved them all!. He knows how to keep the reader hooked. I recently acquired an interest for reading and found his books online. I figured I would start with them. I was by no means disappointed. I hope he writes more with Zoe and Tatum as the main characters. I absolutely love them together as partners solving crimes and getting the bad guy.
