Even though I had recently read Serial Volume One by Lily White and Jaden Wilkes it took me a minute to get into Volume Two, I am not quite sure why but I am going to say that it may had something to do with the introduction of Patty Wilson. Patty was a high school drop-out who fell into the dark world or sex, drugs, and stupid and was led around by her no good pimp-slash-boyfriend-slash-baby-daddy. Although Patty had a story fitting for a cable network weekly movie, she was an ideal target for The Cascade Killer or CK, if he hadn’t been preoccupied with being dangerously in love with “Pet”.

All of the characters from Volume One are present with Donovan Black and Emily Chase’s story being brought to the forefront as the investigation of CK heightens. However, the more I learned about Donovan the more I begin to think that he and Jude could possibly be cousins, twice removed on their fathers' side because they are both plum fools in their own right. I mean they are both just off… off the chain… off their rocker…off of something or another that is only distinguishable because one of them carry a badge.

“How was your day?” she asked, with the intimacy of a long married couple.

I crossed to the bed and sat beside her, inhaled her scent, the intoxicating mix of expensive bath products and her unique underlying flavor.

“It was good,” I replied and felt her lean towards me. She pressed her little body against mine with such a familiarity that for a moment I almost dropped my guard and flipped her over on the bed for a fuck.

Instead I lifted my arm and let her snuggle in, cozy herself against me and hoped she didn’t feel my heart throbbing against my ribcage in surging desire.

“I was kinda bored,” she said, “is there any way to get cable in here? Maybe internet access? I’ve watched all the DVDs you provided and I’ve read every book a couple of times over.”

That was impressive, I hadn’t thought her the type to read so quickly. She’d been with me almost two weeks now and didn’t seem like the brightest bulb in the box, as they said.

“No cable,” I told her, not wanting her to see the recent coverage on the disappearances from the Waffle House, hers included. “I’ll get you Netflix, how’s that? You can watch movies and TV and such.”

“Sounds good,” she replied, “any chance of wifi or a tablet or something?”

“Not yet,” I said, “Billy’s still out there, who knows where he’ll be watching and waiting to find you. He’s apparently pissed that you got away. I’ve heard through the grapevine that he’s willing to pay top dollar to have you killed.”

She flinched when I said it and dropped her gaze to the floor. “Did you talk to him? Did he…say anything?”

“I haven’t spoken to him directly, I’ve just heard things. You don’t still…care for him, do you?”

“Oh god, no. I don’t know why I wasted so much time with him in first place. I’m so embarrassed that I stuck with him, that you saw…”

Her voice trailed off and she felt stiff against me. She was highly self-conscious of her terrible choices, her shitty background and her impoverished upbringing.

I am going to begin this review with a few disclaimers. The first being I am a pretty big fan of Jaden Wilkes. While the second being I was more than tad bit nervous as I began to read Serial Volume One by Lily White and Jaden Wilkes. I questioned a tiny part of my sanity as I swiped across the screen of my reader of such a dark tale. I questioned rather or not I had fallen too deep inside of this literary genre’s rabbit hole. Lucky for me, all of my apprehensions were quickly subsided as I began to read about Jude Hollister. Now that thang is plain ole everyday cray-cray. From “ha-ha” crazy to prescription meds crazy, Jude crossed and covered all of the categories of insanity.

Jude had a charmed life. The world was at his oyster. However, as I continued to read about his story and his obsession and need for murder, I found myself feeling like I was reading a crime novel with the FBI investigating the murders of his moniker of The Cascade Killer or CK.
