Nate Castle is back! In the Nate Castle series With Looks That Could Kill, Someone is murdering the affluent clientele of the Mid-Town Talent Agency, a posh Manhattan firm that some say is a front for a high-end call girl operation. When it comes to cold-blooded murder, Dr. Nate Castle's brain has been picked by the best. For, when he's not getting loaded, Nate is a brilliant forensic detective with an impressive record of solving crimes all over the country. Nate has been giving lectures and offering his services to local police departments. But work is proving hard to come by, and most of it is of the cold-case variety. On a whim, Castle sheds his dull day job teaching twenty somethings in a quaint mid-Atlantic town to tag along with a partner hired by a New York business owner Marcella Moor. Nate's luck changes, however, when his help is enlisted by Detective Wilcox, who has been privately contracted to catch the vicious perpetrator of a string of bone-chilling slayings that include bondage with the victim's own body parts in the big city. The agency's owner, the magnetic, beautiful Marcella Moor, gets more than she bargained for when Nate Castle shows up to work. As Nate tracks down the true identity of the Manhattan Murderer, what he finds is a killer's journey that began decades before, smack-dab in the middle of Nate's past.
