A Killing Rain (Louis Kincaid, #6) By P.J. Parrish

I know I'm reading these out of order, but they aren't easy to get my hands on. I was glad I read this one though. It explains where Joe comes from in the other one I read. And it explains more about Louis's aloofness, his loneliness. An excellent series. P.J. Parrish PJ Parrish is just good readin'...There has not been one of the sisters books that I have not given a minimum of 4 stars to I believe. The Louis Kincaid character is one that a reader can easily buddy up to and looks forward to getting to know more and more! P.J. Parrish 3.5 stars. This book from 2005 is set in the Florida Everglades. Private investigator Louis Kincaid wants to date public defender Susan Outlaw. He really likes her 11 year old son Ben. Her ex-husband Austin shows up and Ben goes missing. Louis is determined to find him.

This book is #6 in the Louis Kincaid series. I've been reading these as I located them so I'm out of order. I read #8 but Louis was absent in most of that book so this was my first true introduction to him. Initially, I didn't care for Susan, Austin, or even Louis. He seemed wishy-washy but as the story progressed, I grew to like him. I met Joe Frye in the last book and I appreciated seeing her character get a good start in this one. I like her. If you like a story with human trafficking, you might like this one. P.J. Parrish A KILLING RAIN was the first book I read by this duo author. It is the 6th installement in a series. Although I have not read any of the previous books, I was still able to get into the storyline very quickly! It was fast paced- action from beginning to end. I found Louis to be a very likeable character and I look forward to reading more of his story and his previous and next cases to come. Excellent read!! P.J. Parrish Getting better and better. On to the next one. P.J. Parrish

A deep freeze is bearing down on the Florida Everglades, the kind of brutal storm the locals call a killing rain. For Detective Louis Kincaid, the coldest night of the year has brought a terrifying new chill- a grisly discovery that tightens his every nerve in warning........

The body proves this is no routine case. It's the start of a nightmare. & When the killer chooses his next victim, theres no doubt the detective is matching wits with a predator who is as ruthless as they come.

Now with time running out, Kincaid is on a desperate hunt of his own, tracking a twisted adversary one step away from committing the ultimate horror....... A Killing Rain (Louis Kincaid, #6)

Good character Louis Kincaid. Well drawn. Complicated and real. P.J. Parrish Even though this one is classified as a mystery I think of it as a suspense or thriller. It was the usual great book written by Parrish. P.J. Parrish It begins with a transaction gone bad in the Alligator Alley. A woman was killed.

Fast forward, Louis Kincaid was getting to know Susan a divorcee and her son Benjamin. As they were preparing for a simple dinner at her house, her long gone ex appears out of nowhere. Things just go down south quickly from there both for their new found relationship as well as the disappearance of Ben when some hoodlums was gunning for his father Austin Outlaw. As the search was on for Ben, a series of gruesome killing litters the landscape as a couple of killers are on the hunt for Austin. As he team up with a Miami PD detective Joette Frye to uncover the murders, a new romantic angle develops between them.

A Louis dwells deeper into the morass he found out that the case is more complex than first thought. From human trafficking to unusual cruelty of the rich against the poor. The final twist come on the starvation prairies. The final poignant moment in the last few chapters are a hallmark of the author. It gives the readers a glimpse of the future. I am anticipating for the next book. P.J. Parrish PJ Parrish has a way of making her characters so real, even the villains and antagonists have complex personalities. Even when they do awful things, somehow you can still feel sorry for them. Uncle Leo, however, was one of the ugliest people I've read about in a while and I thoroughly enjoyed waiting to see what would happen to him. I loved Joe--the female detective Louis Kincaid worked with in this book. And the mother whose child was taken, whom Louis was interested in, and I WANTED to like, was a real mixed bag--which was intended. Parrish does a great job of creating characters you can't quite like but can't quite totally dislike either. Everything about her stories--the plot, the characters--is complicated. This book didn't hook me quite as much as Island of Bones, but it was sure good! P.J. Parrish Every time I read another book written by these two sisters I'm amazed at the story they tell... each time I think it can't get better than this one... once again Parrish does it again. A very satisfying read. P.J. Parrish
