Book Review: Keeps you guessing to the ...finish
Summary: 5 Stars
With this third offering, Max Allen Collins has hit his stride in working with the elements of this series. The pacing is a little slower, but that gives the BAU team -- and us the readers -- time to really get to full understand the UnSub and his motives. And to find out to our surprise that there are, in fact two UnSubs responsible: a childless married couple with a completely warped sense of how to protect children from the dangerous things in life. But at the same time, the story is crafted so subtly, you'll have a hard time guessing just who the UnSub is, among the characters.
Of the three tie-ins that Max Allen Collins has written for this series, this one would definitely be easy to place into the chronology of the TV series. The fact that it takes place in the winter would put it during the gap caused by the writers' strike last year; plus the conversation between Jennifer "JJ" Jarreau and Emily Prentiss at the end hint at JJ's secret relationship and subsequent pregnancy, making this more than just a side-story in this particular series, but a clear-cut part of the continuity.
