It was her experience working in the New Mexico State Penitentiary and the exposure to prison life that led her to create fictional forensic psychologist Dr. Sylvia Strange.

Fast read, enjoyable spy/romance story with an ending that sets up book number two.

Pretty much as expected, Dangerous Attachments is about obsessed killers. This is the type book where the killer somehow _targets some lovely woman because she reminds him of someone or needs to be killed or whatever. In any case, we read the killers' thoughts interspersed with the story of forensic psychiatrist Dr Sylvia Strange, who has chosen to spend time with inmates. She becomes the focus of more than one and has narrow escapes while developing feelings for a detective.

She agrees to interview and report on one inmate, Lucas Watson, and her decision to recommend referral to a mental institution leads to all kinds of murder and mayhem.

It's a story I have read before by other authors. Except in this case there is more than one obsessed killer, and in the end the wrapup simply confused me.
