This book had me on the edge of my seat till the end! Zoe is a special agent with the FBI with an ability to see numbers everywhere but lacks great social skills. She begins to investigate murders where math equations are being left behind at the scene of the crime. Zoe is faced with trying to get others to believe the equation is connected to the crime. The character of Zoe is described really well and you can't help but get sucked into her world. She litterally brings you into the book and your trying to figure everything out right along with her. It is a very well written mystery about and unique character. I will read more of this series! I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Book Review: Face Of Murder
Author: Blake Pierce
Rating: 4/5
'For something that she had feared for such a long time, it turned out to be not so awful at all'
+++++++
Review:
Zoe is a synesthete, but not even Zoe can solve the math equations that being left on the murdered victims, while others believe the equation doesn't mean anything Zoe knows they are connected to the case and she won't stop until she has the puzzle solved.
Face of Murder is an intriguing mystery and has a unique storyline. It is well written and the characters are well developed. In this you see Zoe continue to struggle with allowing herself to open up about her condition and letting others into her life. Even though at the end we see Zoe opening up more she still has a long ay to go and I am looking forward to seeing what comes next for her.
