From Publishers Weekly:In Lyle's ingenious third mystery featuring retired major league pitcher Jake Longly (after 2017's A-List), Jake, who runs a restaurant in Gulf Shores, Ala., is again roped into working for his father Ray's PI firm. An attorney has contacted Ray on behalf of Billy Wayne Baker, a convicted serial killer. Though Baker pleaded guilty to strangling seven women, he insists that he killed only five of them, and wants that assertion validated. When Jake meets Baker in prison, the murderer refuses to name the other killer, claiming that doing so would lead to accusations that Jake's inquiries were biased. The investigator's task is made even harder by Baker's not even identifying which of the dead women were killed by someoneelse . (To his credit, Lyle makes this complicated scenario credible.) Along with his girlfriend, Jake travels to Pine Key,Fla., the scene of three of the strangulations, where the couple pretends to be researching a documentary examining the impact of the killings on the small community. The clever plot twists will surprise even genre veterans. This entry is the best in the series so far.
