About the Book:
Kaely Quinn's talents as an FBI behavior analyst are impossible to ignore, no matter how unorthodox her methods. But when a reporter outs her as the daughter of an infamous serial killer, she's demoted to field agent and transferred to St. Louis.
When the same reporter who ruined her career claims to have received an anonymous poem predicting a string of murders, ending with Kaely's, the reporter's ulterior motives bring his claim into question. But when a body is found that fits the poem's predictions, the threat is undeniable, and the FBI sends Special Agent Noah Hunter to St. Louis.
Initially resentful of the assignment, Noah is surprised at how quickly his respect for Kaely grows, despite her oddities. But with a brazen serial killer who breaks all the normal patterns on the loose, Noah and Kaely are tested to their limits to catch the murderer before anyone else--including Kaely herself--is killed.

My Review:
I love a great criminal procedural, and add in a member of the FBI's BAU and I'm all in! When I heard about Nancy Mehl's newest series I could hardly wait to dive in, and I was thrilled with the novel.
Mehl has crafted a series that has the same feel as the new drama FBI: gritty, focused, and intense. She opens the book by revealing Kaely's infamous background and continues with a thrilling case for the FBI behavior analyst to help solve.
Her characters are rich and nuanced, and the story is gripping and well paced. This was a book that had me so tempted to read the last chapter first just so I knew where the story was going to end up...but I resisted and was rewarded with a very satisfying conclusion.
I'm excited to see what's next for Kaely and Noah! I received a complimentary copy from the publisher, with no obligation in return. I really think you'll love "Mind Games", so pick up a copy today!
Until the next read,
Deena
