For Detective Terry Millar, finding a balance between his job as a top criminal profiler and his role as a single dad to a teenage daughter just got a lot tougher. Murders are rare in his hometown of Ottawa, so when the body of a young woman is found displayed in plain sight, he takes it personally. This is his town. This is his home. Millar and his long-time partner, Detective Sue Penner, are determined to find the killer, but they've only just begun their search when another victim is found, her body similarly staged, taunting the police. Before long, Millar, Penner and an ambitious beat cop, Constable Grant, are being led on the worst kind of treasure hunt around the city. Every clue that they uncover leads to more questions. The evidence is mounting, but it seems to point in an impossible direction. Even if they catch the killer, they know that nothing will ever be the same again. A Striking Similarity is the first book in The Ottawa Detective Series.
