An ongoing evil obsession
Detective Paula May wrote First Degree Rage, which is about L.C Underwood, who committed crimes against his former girlfriend's family, namely attempted murder and cold-blooded murder. I have read work from this author before, actually, I read the first book before reading this. Detective May writes a continuing book on the obsessive Underwood, who killed Kay Weden's boyfriend, and attempted to hurt her son, but there were still questions about Kay's mother, Catherine Miller. Underwood's obsession hasn't stopped from behind bars, where he is supposed to spend 40 years. It's another chapter of an unimaginable evil of how far obsession can take one over the edge. Detective May writes with precision, fact and elegance as she brings the reader into the story, feeling the pent up emotions, disdain for Underwood, and the uneasiness of who Underwood really is. If he had his way, many more lives would be shattered. It's a book you can't put down, but you have to just to take a breath and walk away. Raging On is a definite recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews.
