The Kitt Lundgren series written by author Erica Spindler consists of a couple of novels, which were published in the years 2000 and 2008 respectively. The first novel of the series was published by the Mira Books publishing house and was titled ‘Copycat’. The plot of the novel features Kitt Lundgren as the main protagonist, who is described by the author as a homicide detective. In the opening plot of the novel, three dead bodies of young victims were discovered around 5 years ago, which posed as little angels. No witnesses or evidences were found about the case. The killer who performed the brutal crimes described his acts as perfect crimes. He came to be known as The Sleeping Angel Killer. As homicide detective Kitt Lundgren was not able to solve the case after letting the killer get away once, her career was nearly destroyed. Now, the killer had come back after five years, but he shows some differences in his style of committing murders, which is noticed by Kitt Lundgren. The small variations in the rash of killings make her believe that a copycat killer is trying to recreate the original perfect crimes of The Sleeping Angel Killer. Soon after, the unexpected happens when the original killer approaches Kitt with a weird offer of helping her to catch the copycat killer. Kitt Lundgren faces a difficult situation and has to decide whether she should trust the murderer or risk herself in becoming the victim of the copycat killer.
The second novel of the series was published by the St. Martin’s Press. It was titled as ‘Breakneck’ and continued to revolve around the life of the homicide detective Kitt Lundgren. The plot of the novel is set in Illinois, United States and depicts a remorseless killer. In the opening sequence of the plot of the novel, Kitt teams up with another detective named M.C Riggio in order to race against the cold-blooded killer of innocent and young victims. The killer seems to be moving with breakneck speed and poses a great danger for the people of Illinois. Mary Catherine Riggio and Kitt Lundgren seem hot on heels due to their last case, working as detectives in the Violent Crimes Bureau of the police department of Illinois. They get called by a college student to investigate the murder of a young man in his sleep. The victim had no previous criminal record, nor any noise complaints from the neighbors. The trail of the murderer seems cold as dead bodies of other victims begin to turn up one after the other. After investigating the lives of the victims, Kitt and Riggio come to know that the killer targets only the young kids. Meanwhile, the case begins to affect the personal life of Riggio, which pushes her on edge with Kitt and leaves their friendship in jeopardy. The case takes them deep into the cyber universe, where nothings seems to happen in the right way. The relationship of Kitt and Riggio lies at the heart of the suspenseful plot of the novel, as they struggle to maintain their trust, balance their double roles, and walking on the edge with the law, being on the verge of taking it into their hands.
