Paige Riley who is still recovering from her last encounter with a serial killer Apparently no one is as smart as Paige No one can understand killers like Paige does Heck, Paige even shares a special connection to her partner and best friend, Bill There is a mention of what Paige looks like, but I blocked it out because I couldn t take oneutterance of how freaking great she is There is no depth to Paige, her partner, her daughter, her ex, other agents Shockingly the only person we get some insight into is the serial killer And the entire premise of Paige...This one gets an extra star solely because the writer seems to like serial killers Criminal Minds as much as I do Also Silence of the Lambs Okay premise, pretty bad execution For a clever woman, Riley was kind of an idiot sometimes A word of advice, writers Please don t try too hard to make the reader like the MC That effort is definitely going to backfire P.S I ve seen so much of said T.V show, and read so much about serial
