This was a rougher mystery than I usually like, but I found the characters and twists so compelling that I kept going. ( )

Book 3

John Cardinal and Lise Delorme skilled police officers are busy working the case of a young red-headed woman who is suffering from a memory loss after being shot in the head. They are hindered by a lack of leads and a problem identifying the woman, presenting a challenge for them.

When two bodies are found near the columns of bizarre hieroglyphics, one body of a member of the local biker gang and the other local resident, it is discover that the murders are link to the redhead by the fact that the bullets came from the same gun. Cardinal and Delorme suspect that these murders may not be just biker’s justice. Solving these murders and finding out who is responsible becomes a game of decoding the mysteries of an ancient form of African voodoo.

This mystery novel is well paced and plotted; although the story is complex it still flows nicely it is not burdened with subplots, all the characters have depth and are interesting. Without a doubt, I am eager to read the fourth adventure. ( )
