GIVEAWAY: 3 copies of The Bride Collector by Ted Dekker
February 17th, 2010
That’s right folks! I have 3 copies of Ted Dekker’s, The Bride Collector – soon to be released on April 13, 2010 up for grabs thanks to the wonderful Miriam at Hachette Book Group! I just reviewed it earlier today and I thought it was another great thriller from Dekker (my review).
Here’s a bit about the book from Hachette Book Group…
FBI Special agent Brad Raines is facing his toughest case yet. A Denver serial killer has killed four beautiful young women, leaving a bridal veil at each crime scene, and he’s picking up his pace. Unable to crack the case, Raines appeals for help from a most unusual source: residents of the Center for Wellness and Intelligence, a private psychiatric institution for mentally ill individuals whose are extraordinarily gifted.
It’s there that he meets Paradise, a young woman who witnessed her father murder her family and barely escaped his hand. Diagnosed with schizophrenia, Paradise may also have an extrasensory gift: the ability to experience the final moments of a person’s life when she touches the dead body.
In a desperate attempt to find the killer, Raines enlists Paradise’s help. In an effort to win her trust, he befriends this strange young woman and begins to see in her qualities that most ‘sane people’ sorely lack. Gradually, he starts to question whether sanity resides outside the hospital walls…or inside.
As the Bride Collector picks up the pace-and volume-of his gruesome crucifixions, the case becomes even more personal to Raines when his friend and colleague, a beautiful young forensic psychologist, becomes the Bride Collector’s next target.
The FBI believes that the killer plans to murder seven women. Can Paradise help before it’s too late?

I read House by Dekker and Frank Peretti – good gah, that book gave me nightmares. For real. I don't remember what the dream was about, but it scared the tar out of me, I know that much. This book seems almost reminiscent of that Amityville Horrormovie…creepy stuff right there.
Oh Boy I would love to win one of these; thanks Dar from your follower
