*************POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT***********

Brad Rains is the main character, he is the investigator int he murders.  This story takes place in Denver Colorado.  The killer is knowN for picking beautiful woman to murder and hang on the wall.  The investigators gave the killer the name of the Bride collector because they were wearing vails when they were found.  Rains was drawn to a private mentally ill home to talk to their residents.  One of the residents was named Paradis and Brad somehow felt drawn to her.  Paradise is Bi-Polar and she sees dead people.  Paradise has visions and Brad knows that she is seeing something and works to get her to talk and trust him.  I really liked this story and I felt like I was right there in the investigation.  It was a little unnerving at times and I liked that.  The book was read by John Glover and he does a wonderful job of reading and making the listener feel like they are really there in the investigation.
