(554) Kiss the Girls by James Patterson

It is a frightening tale of two intelligent serial killers. One collects beautiful women and keep them in an underground harem. The other uses and kills females, mutilating the corpse to keep different parts of the bodies.

When the number of missing women built up with some murdered in cold blood, the police and the FBI are under pressure to find the kidnapper turned murderer. Somewhere along the line of investigation, a clue came out that the two killers were in contact.

A lady doctor who was kidnapped escaped against all odds. From the information revealed by her, Alex Cross was able to locate the hidden harem to free his niece and other victims. It was illogical that the doctor would stupidly go back to her residence where the person kidnapped her. I find it unbelievable that the FBI did not place her in a safe house or at least place her under protection! As a result of such foolish choice, she was soundly beaten by both the killers. It was amazing that she did not die.

As most stories of this sort go, eventually the killers become over confident and are killed or caught by some heroes. It was a high adrenalin and exciting read! While it is very advantageous for a woman to be beautiful in features and figure, such a person easily becomes a target of such killers.
