I've heard of the author but have never read her work. I thought The Watcher was a terrific read. I will be checking out the author's back catalogue. I read a lot of thrillers. The Watchers has a lot in common with the best thrillers; fast paced, lots of action, twists and turns and engaging on every level. What makes this stand out is the unique signature of the killer. I can't go into detail as it's a major spoiler but it's fair to say I've never read about a killer quite like the one in this book. Jessie and Marilyn are great characters, two very different women who clash almost as often as they agree and they initially have very different ideas about the killer and their motives. It's great to read a book with two good female leads.
