3.5 stars Debut Dr Margaret (Maggie) Levine's radio talk show Live with Levine has been a hit since she started the show nine months ago and now she's the most popular radio personality in Chicago. For the thirty-three year-old psychiatrist it's been a slow recovery from the emotional, psychological and physical trauma of a stalker's attack a year ago. After one of Maggie's regular callers - 'Owen' - becomes agitated and threatening one evening during her show, she arrives home to find her house has been vandalised with the word 'fear' written in blood on her walls. Maggie is a target again. The Society for the Study of the Aberrant Mind - SSAM - is a successful private business to catch serial murderers and violent offenders. Because Maggie is a long-time friend of the founder, SSAM takes on Maggie's case. Ethan Townsend, thirty-eight year-old ex-Secret Service agent is in charge of protecting Maggie and securing her house. What becomes apparent fairly quickly is that 'Owen' is using the same m.o. as 'Fearmonger', a serial killer who has been in hiding for over a decade. This was a pretty satisfying read. The prose, pacing and plot were really good. The hero and heroine were likable and well-described with good detail on their backgrounds. The motivations of the killer were believable. There were a couple of issues though. I thought that SSAM may have been encroaching too much on the police's turf. I think that the police/FBI would have been leading the investigation and maybe using SSAM as consultants. It seemed to be the other way around with SSAM leading the investigation. A couple of times Maggie did tend to do something that seemed a bit unlikely for a woman who had been attacked by a stalker previously and now had a serial killer after her. Plus it was just a little too easy for the killer to eventually get his hands on Maggie. This appears to be a first novel from author Anne Marie Becker. Only Fear is pretty good romantic suspense overall and I like the concept of SSAM bringing together experts from different fields. I look forward to reading the next in the series.
