About this ebook

“They don’t fear me, quite the opposite. It makes it twice as fun… I know the next time will be soon, I’ve learnt to recognise the signs. I think I even know who it will be. She’s oblivious of course, just as she should be. All the time, I watch and wait and she has no idea, none at all. And why would she? I’m disguised as myself, the very best disguise there is.”

A known prostitute is found stabbed to death in a shabby corner of Abbeyford. Detective Sergeant Kate Redman and her partner Detective Sergeant Olbeck take on the case, expecting to have it wrapped up in a matter of days. Kate finds herself distracted by her growing attraction to her boss, Detective Chief Inspector Anderton – until another woman’s body is found, with the same knife wounds. And then another one after that, in a matter of days.

Forced to confront the horrifying realisation that a serial killer may be preying on the vulnerable women of Abbeyford, Kate, Olbeck and the team find themselves in a race against time to unmask a terrifying murderer, who just might be hiding in plain sight…

Imago (A Kate Redman Mystery: Book 3) is the third in the Kate Redman Mysteries series, by bestselling crime writer Celina Grace, author of Hushabye, Requiem and Lost Girls.

I just LOVE Celina Grace's Kate Redmond series! This, the 3rd book in the series, runs at a hectic pace right from the start & concludes with a nice little twist. It was interesting to see the character of Kate show her vulnerability more in this story as opposed to her normal strong self control & "stiff upper lip" stance. I can't wait to read the fourth in the series - I've become quite addicted!

I read this one before book 1 (still haven't read book 2). Her character is developing interesting twists but slowly. Good story with great twist.

A good tale, very well written and fast moving until the ending. The twist of good luck at the end solved the mystery and when one thinks back to the capture of Sutcliffe (the Yorkshire Ripper) it proves that a serial killer can be found just by fate.
