I am always looking for the mystery novel that is written in such a way as to have the characters use a logical progression to find the solution and this book absolutely did that. I become irritated with a novel which presents the problem as Point A and then blithely skips to Point D without bothering to explain to me what method of intuition or rolling of the fuzzy dice allowed the super intelligent protagonist to arrive at their conclusion. This novel shows all the steps toward solving the mystery without becoming mired in tediousness.Theresa MacLean is the acting supervisor for the Trace Evidence Department of the Cleveland, Ohio, Medical Examiners office. Budget cuts have caused all kinds of problems, one of them being the lack of appointment by anyone to the office of Supervisor of the Trace Department so Theresa does all the work without any raise in pay or official title. When she makes a trip back into the morgue during the wee hours of the early morning to drop off evidence of a car crash she has just worked she discovers a member of the staff has been murdered and another is missing. From there on the police and office of the medical examiner are on a hunt to find the person who seems to be targeting employees of the ME's office.This novel is relatively short at just over 200 pages so that was somewhat of a disappointment since it means it didn't take me very long to read it. From my viewpoint there could have been more personal development of the main characters. It took well over half the novel just to find out the first name of the police sergeant who figured so prominently in helping with the investigation. There never was any personal information given about him. I really liked what information I was given about the main character and also appreciated the fact that she was a somewhat older woman with a daughter off at college and someone who used her intellect and logical reasoning ability to help solve problems she encountered. I really do get very tired of reading about the 22 year old woman able to leap tall buildings without mussing her hair and solve all the problems of the world but dithers endlessly over which color of nail polish to choose. The woman in this novel was mature, she was likeable, she was a hard worker, she used common sense, and she was human. I'm definitely hoping this either already is a series so I can find previous books to read or will become a series so I can follow along with Theresa and Don and Louis on other adventures.I received an ARC of this novel through NetGalley. The opinions expressed are my own.

Teresa is a forensic scientist at the Cleveland crime lab who is in the lab after a late night call-out, when she discovers the body of the deskman. The words "confess" is written in blood on the cabinet. Two other lab employees are killed as a past case is identified as the reason for the spree. Teresa is an engaging protagonist-curious and dogged in the pursuit of the truth. Forensic details are interspersed in to the narrative and give insight in to the strengths and limits of forensics, but the strength of the story is the interplay between Teresa and the people she meets in the course of solving the puzzle. Lots of suspense, and the forensic details don't slow down the story.

Knew who committed the crimes and why within 2 chapters. All the forensic minutia was over the top and only served to make the book longer than 60 pages. Don't waste your time - unless you are a criminal wanting to know how to escape detection.
