Gardner Camden is a member of the Patterns and Recognitions (PAR) unit, a specialized group of FBI agents with advanced analytical and technical expertise. Camden, who is neurodivergent, is a brilliant investigator but struggles with social interactions. When a serial killer believed to have died in a house fire seven years ago in Florida is found murdered in Texas, the PAR unit is called in. As they begin their investigation, another serial killer is found dead. Camden is appointed to lead the team once it becomes evident that the murderer has acquired inside information about the serial killers and is taunting the FBI. Could the murderer be an FBI insider acting as a vigilante?
Head Cases is the first book in John McMahon's new series featuring the fictional FBI PAR unit, a team of "oddballs, rejects, and weirdos," as they are often referred to behind their backs. The plot is cleverly crafted, with the murderer leaving clues that only brilliant minds can decipher. I thoroughly enjoyed the cat-and-mouse action. Perfect for fans of CBS-TV's Criminal Minds. Sign me up for Book 2.
