In THE PERFECT BLOCK (Book #2), rookie criminal profiler Jessie Hunt, 29, picks up the pieces of her broken life and leaves suburbia to start a new life in downtown Los Angeles. But when a wealthy socialite is murdered, Jessie, assigned the case, finds herself back in the world of picture-perfect suburbia, hunting a deranged killer amidst the false facades of normalcy and sociopathic women.… women.
Jessie, thriving again in downtown LA, is sure she’s moved on from her suburban nightmare. Ready to put her failed marriage behind her, she lands a job with the local police department, deferring her acceptance to the FBI’s Academy.
She is assigned a straightforward murder in a wealthy neighborhood, a simple case to start her career. But little do her bosses know, there’s more to the case than anyone suspected. Nothing can prepare her for her first case, one that will force her to probe the minds of the wealthy, suburban couples she’d thought she’d left behind. Behind their polished family pictures and manicured hedges, Jessie realizes, perfection is not what it seems.
A fast-paced psychological suspense thriller with unforgettable characters and heart-pounding suspense, THE PERFECT BLOCK is book #2 in a riveting new series that will leave you turning pages late into the night.
Book #3 in the Jessie Hunt series—THE PERFECT HOUSE—is now also available!

I loved this book. Actually I love all the books from this author.
Contrived.
frightening detective story, well written second volume.
Must add Blake Pierce and his character Jessie Hunt to my fav list. In The Perfect Block, Jessie solved her first case as a junior profiler. That alone was a page turning great read, but the flashbacks to her childhood and marriage made it an exceptional thriller.
Mr. Pierce’s creative storylines and development of Jessie make this a series to not miss.
Excellent book -read the first one and this one was just as good
The Perfect Block is the second installment in the Jessie Hunt series, and it did not disappoint me! Our rookie criminal profiler, Jessie Hunt, continues to put her life back together after the disasters she survived in the first book. I should point out, Blake Pierce has written the series so you can certainly pick up any book in the series and start in. There is a recap before this installment begins. Jessie is back in LA, working now as an intern in the police department and so far her instincts have not failed her. Jessie still visits the serial killer who modeled himself after her own serial killer father. I am stumped how he knows what Jessie is doing, where she is, and also manages to get messages to her from her father. I am forced into buying the next installment just to find out if Jessie’s father ever finds her or if she finds him first! Jessie Hunt has matured some in this book, but her instincts seem to kick in too late still. I am hoping she gets on top of this so she doesn’t continue to be a victim here.
Another great crime story from Blake Pierce. I always look for her books because I know they will be great! I need to find the first in this series.
Love Blake Pierce!!!
was a different subject and twists make for an interesting, enjoyable read
First two books in this series are really good reads. I highly recommend them to anyone who likes suspense.

Great series.
One of my favorite author, next to patterson
I like this series, looking forward to reading the next one. The characters are very well developed, and the story although continuing can be read as a stand alone book.
I have never read book by Blake Pierce that I did not enjoy.
Everything he writes his great must read all of them
