New Orleans Police Detective Anthony Beuprix needs someone to provide him insider information in the Little Saigon section of town where a serial killer has been at work. Anthony objects to Lacie as she is a northern outsider and too small for the job. Still Anthony has little choice and Lacie is willing to play the bait in a dangerous game of cat and mouse. However, As Anthony becomes acquainted with Lacie over blue M&Ms and foot massages, he falls in love and detests using her as his lure to catch a killer, who seems to have insider information on what the cops will do next.
A PERFECT COVER is a pleasurable "Bombshell" romantic thriller starring a solid male protagonist and a fantastic female heroine. The story line starts slowly to establish the credentials of the cast, but once the game is afoot it accelerates into hyperspeed. Though the final twist seems overkill, fans will treasure this serial killer romance as Anthony realizes how horribly personal the case has become especially since his beloved refuses to get off the hook of catching the killer.
