Naked in Death

This was my first time reading this series and I found it entertaining. It sort of reminded me of Sue Grafton's Kinsey Millhone mysteries, but edgier. I'll definitely be reading the second one in this series.

Female cop goes after serial killer. Normally, not my cup of tea, but I actually enjoyed this. Takes place in 2058. I usually avoid "serial killer" books in favor of vampires and werewolves because I have trouble with the more "real life" violence, but I guess the fact that this takes place in the future made it just "other-worldly" enough for me. It's definitely a bit more gruesome than Nora Roberts' usual romantic stuff, but I like the main character.
