My rating: 4 of 5 stars
With Love, the second opus of the psychological thriller trilogy Letters In Blood, starts right where it ended in Dear Captor.
The mystery is in full play, it played and messed with my mind, making me doubt, my head spinning with the different hypothesis coming and going.
Told from three point of view, Elenore's, the captor' s and Roman's the story progresses, always more gruesome as revelations upon revelations are unveiled letting the parts of the bigger picture little by little appear.
We don't know much more about the captor's past but his character is well developed and being in his head, seeing his struggling as wether he should kill Elenore or not, and why, the evolution of his feelings was very interesting.
Roman is still investigating, exploring and digging the horror that was Elenore's past.
Elenore is stronger than ever, she resists, fights, survives, but unfortunately I couldn't wrap my mind around the fact that she could want her captor. As a ruse? Stockholm syndrom? Hmmm...
A good mystery at this point, in spite of some issues that brought a damper on an otherwise intriguing and intricate plot, I cant wait to read the third installment next month and eventually to see who the captor is and how the pieces of this puzzle fall into place!

Dear Captor,
Do you find pleasure in my tortured screams?
My darkened cell is my own living nightmare.
Why do you continue to play this game? Why don’t you just kill me?
You’ve almost broken me all over again—but I’ve held firm. I’ve pushed through the pain you’ve inflicted. And now I’m seeing a side of you I never knew could exist. A side I connect with. A side I could grow to like.
Your touch on my skin . . . it ignites a fire within.
Only time will tell what will come of it.
With love,
Elenore.
