Review: Killer Look by Linda Fairstein (Goodreads Author)

Killer Look by Linda Fairstein
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

2,5 stars

This has been one of my favourite series since I read the first book years ago.

Killer Look, the 18th novel featuring ADA heading the Sex Crimes division of the DA’s office, Alexandra “Coop” Cooper, in Linda Fairstein's Alexandra Cooper Series was an uninspiring and disappointment for me.

Alex, traumatized by her kidnapping at the end of the previous book, Devil’s Bridge, she is struggling to deal with her ordeal - every noise makes her nervous, shut out by her co-workers and friends and using alcohol as a means of overcoming her fears.

This story is set in NYC 's fashion industry. The apparent suicide of a
high-fashion couturier Wolf Savage soon begins to look more like murder. When Savage's daughter, Lily Savitsky, Alex's old high school swimming teammate contacts her about her father's death, Alex is reluctantly allowed to assist Mike Chapman with the investigation.

I found the plot interesting...all the shenanigans of fashion industry and the cutthroat world that those people live in......what I didn't enjoy was the way Mike Chapman dealt with Alex's problems. He was such a dolt most of the times that I wanted Alex to give his ass a huge kick!!!!
There was hardly any romance between these two!!

I also became bored after a while with all those personal traumas that Alex had and how she dealt with them. I somehow expected her to be a bit less needy!!!

Hell, the way this book ended.............never expected that...but still did not make it more than a very average read.
