A Killer's Mind is a detective novel by Israeli author Mike Omer published in 2018. It is the first book in the Zoe Bentley Trilogy, two others being In the Dakness and Thicker Than Blood. Kinopoisk purchased the right to the Zoe Bentley series adaptation in all languages of the world, and in 2024 the A Killer's Mind TV series was released.

Plot

Zoe Bentley, an FBI forensic psychologist, investigates the death of three women in Chicago. They were strangled, embalmed, and posed in a specific manner - as if they were alive. FBI takes on the case and calls Zoe for help doubting the local PD's profiler expertise.

Zoe's got a new partner, Special Agent Tatum Gray, who is not easy to work with. He is a smug maverick who doesn't respect rules. They have to find a way to work together to stop the serial killer's psyche before more women will die. But it's not the only killer in Zoe's mind: we learn more about her childhood drama with gruesome murders and their connection to the present.

Adaptations

The first TV adaptation of the book was released in February 2024 by the streaming service Kinopoisk. The setting is moved from USA to Russia, Saint Petersburg.

Reception

According to Forbes Russia, the novel outranked books by J. K. Rowling, Stephen King, and James Patterson in Amazon bestellers list in June 2018. In 2020, it became the most best-selling book (among recently published) in Russia.
