Get Thrilled with Chelsea Cain

Chelsea Cain is one of the best thriller writers I have ever read. Her first novel, Heartsick, was so intense that it made me want to sleep with the lights on for a couple of days! Cain's novels feature Portland Detective Archie Sheridan and serial killer Gretchen Lowell. Heartsick details Gretchen's capture and torture of Archie, a bizarre sort of pyschological and emotional relationship that has become its own sort of twisted love affair for Archie. The second novel, Sweetheart, furthers Gretchen's story, and the newest novel, Evil at Heart continues to develop the saga of Gretchen Lowell's life as the "beauty killer." The unique aspect of these stories is that the interaction between Gretchen and Archie is a side story to the book's main action. These three books are the ultimate story of cat and mouse. If you like pulse-pounding action, a serial killer with a bizarre motivation and a detective unable to stop his fascination with a killer, try reading these books.
