Razor Sharp [Embryo: A Raney and Levine Thriller]


Book Description...

"A Jack the Ripper type killer is murdering male prostitutes, with one exception...

A young woman is found brutally attacked with a straight razor, her cruel facial mutilation the only link to three other horrific murders: a transgender woman, a transvestite, and a 17-year-old hustler. So nasty are those three born-male kills that the psychopath seems to be saying, they're all males...

FROM HELL he scrawls, taunting the NYPD with the original Jack the Ripper's 1888 letter to the police. This killer is cunning: wears gloves, disguises, and leaves no physical evidence. At a loss, the police ask "one small favor" from physicians Jill Raney and David Levine, friends and - until now, detectives on their own. "No warrant? No problem!" had been their mantra...until their relationship with the cops led to exhaustion and conflict.

But they share the horror that grips the country and agree to help, thus plunging into an unimaginable and terrifying maze of psycho-sexual obsession and madness."

"Razor Sharp" by J.A. Schneider 

My Thoughts....

Another well written story of the  'Embryo 6 series' by this author. We find with  "Razor Sharp" with Jill and David the duo doctor couple while on vacation do it once again helping the police catch the psycho who was murdering featuring 'transvestites. trams gender woman and a 17 year old hustler.' Be ready for a little bit of it all as this bad person is brought down in this bloody mystery thriller suspenseful novel with a lots of twist and turns.  I would recommend to get it all from the Embryo series to start with the first one and read you way through to this series.  You will not be disappointed at all, however this series is a standalone read.

Here they are is you would like to take a look at them:

This author seems to have mastered it all in 'being so creative with such thought provoking stories and giving you such a good understanding of the medical and even the detective world.'  I love how she was able to bring into the story of Jill and David's son....the three year old Jesse who proved to be quite helpful in this case.  I will stop here and say to get the whole story you will just have to pick up "Razor Sharp" to see for yourself how well this story is presented to the readers.  I found this novel a page turner and had me guessing right up to the end who the corrupt murderer was.  Will there be a Embryo 7?  Well. I guess we will just have to wait and see!
