Judas Kiss by J.T. Ellison

This is terrible! The main plot about who killed Corinne Wolfe is so thin that Taylor Jackson is seemingly given about thirty other antagonists to deal with. Her CIA boyfriend is being stalked by a serial killer. The head of the Office Of Professional Responsibility wants to destroy Taylor's career, presumably just because she can! There's another faceless enemy releasing a sex tape of Taylor, and creating a video that makes it look like Taylor committed a murder. There's also the serial killer from the previous novel (14) that is still on the loose!

Seriously? Is there anybody out there who doesn't want to kill Taylor Jackson?!?

I like a good, strong mystery with one central storyline. Not fifteen different mini ones!

And the bit where Taylor pulls out a gun and THREATENS A SUSPECT?!? Holy freaking crap, how stupid can she be? She actually seems surprised when she gets in trouble for it.

This was awful. Despite the twenty different story strands, it was totally boring and stupid.

Slow Start …. but then Wham!

A bit slow and seemed predictable in the beginning but then moved faster & faster with such a surprise ending. Can’t wait to start the next.

I feel like this book dragged on. I feel like there was too much chance to the story.

It was really good. It was a lot different than I thought it would be, but I still really enjoyed it! J.T. Ellison is an amazing author for those that like to read crime/mystery type books. I also like that you get to see the personal side of Taylor along with her professional side, being the Lieutenant of the Homicide department on the Nashville Metro. police department.

Another fantastic unexpected roller coaster ride of murder and mystery from one of the best!!! Although I figured out the culprit, the why and the journey to confirm my suspicions was fantastic!
