A woman has been found burned to death on a Montana mountain. Police are having a hard time discovering her identity. They believe she is not from the area. Bryce McCabe of the Montana Highway Patrol requests help from Forensic Psychologist Dr. Ann Bailey. When a second body is discovered, Ann is reminded of Elijah Weston. Elijah was recently released from prison after spending ten years behind bars for a crime he did not commit. When he was in prison, he had groupies who called themselves "fire flies". Ann sees a connection between these deaths and Elijah's groupies. As Bryce and Ann search for the killer, Bryce worries that Ann may be on the killer's list.

This is the second book in the Montana series. It started out well, but quickly slowed to a snail's pace. There were really no surprises in this story. I usually like this author's stories, but this one didn't work for me. My rating: 2.5 Stars.

What a dud! This is one that by the time you reach page 100 (if you make it that far) you'll be thinking 'I've read this before or something like it' and believe me that's the truth

I thought the story started out fair but then it just kept getting tedious as it went along. I didn't realize it was a sequel so I guess that's why I didn't know the backstory of Clark and by midway? I didn't care!

So slow, tedious, draggy and finally boring!
