The Man Who Lied To Women by Carol O'Connor

When a woman killed in Central Park is mistakenly identified as Mallory, the former street urchin and computer whiz sets herself up as bait by moving into the apartment building that houses her three main suspects. Using a computer and the building's electronic bulletin board to psych out the killer, she stirs up more than she bargained for, including someone who wants her dead. Other elements in the intelligent plot include a crime of passion, a suspenseful cat-and-mouse game and a boy who may be telekinetic and whose stepmothers keep dying. 

A different sort of heroine, in some ways she reminded me of Dexter. She has her own set of rules that don't always conform to society's. Lots of bad guys, lots of men who lie to women but who is the murderer she is after?

I would read more in this series.
