“Persons has shattered the thriller mold.” —John Sandford
A deer hunter tracking his wounded prey through the Minnesota woods gets much more than he bargained for when he makes the grisly discovery of a young girl’s body. The condition of the corpse is shocking: The girl had been pregnant, but the fetus was removed from her womb and an inverted pentagram drawn on her forehead. After the girl is identified as the daughter of a high-powered Senator, the FBI is called in to find the murderer—and the missing baby.
The case becomes increasingly complex as Bernadette and Tony’s personal relationship heats up, and the investigation is hampered by the many lies that lead them on a circuitous—and deadly—route to the truth. Through dogged police work and Bernadette’s unique powers of second sight, they close in on the killers on a frigid night in the snowy woods in an effort to save the tiny victim of the toughest crime they’ve ever solved.

      In Persons's middling third paranormal crime thriller to feature Minnesota FBI agent Bernadette Saint Clare (after Blind Rage
      ), Saint Clair and her boss, Tony Garcia, look into the murder of pregnant, 16-year-old Lydia Dunton, found butchered in Paul Bunyan State Forest with her full-term fetus removed and now missing. To make matters worse for the investigators, the victim's father is a U.S. senator, Magnus Dunton, an outspoken critic of the bureau. The inverted red pentagram that marked the dead girl's head mysteriously vanishes soon after the corpse arrives at the morgue, leading to suspicions centering on a local coven. Saint Clare finds a similar case in Wisconsin as well as evidence Lydia visited the scene of that crime. While Saint Clare can see the world through the eyes of killers, this gift does little to enhance her role as a stock lead character, nor does it add much to the law enforcement routine.

      When a pregnant teenager is found dead in a Minnesota state forest, her fetus cut from her body and a pentagram painted in blood on her forehead, suspicions point toward local Wiccans. And when the victim is found to be the daughter of a U.S. senator, the FBI is summoned. Agent Bernadette Saint Clare, of the St. Paul Division, working with her boss, Tony Garcia, finds a similar unsolved case in Wisconsin and looks for links between the two. Saint Clares unique ability is the second sight that enables her to see through the eyes of a murderer. As she pushes her skill to the point of becoming temporarily blind, she and Garcia put the pieces together, but not before a horrific chase and a rising body count. In the third novel featuring Saint Clare (after Blind Spot, 2008and Blind Rage, 2008), the agents intuition serves her nearly as well as her second sight, and her personal relationship with Garcia advances to another level, all of which should build anticipation for thenext installment.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2009, American Library Association.)
