Members Reviews:

Chilling!

I know many say these books are very long but I loved it and listened to it in just over a week - 23 hours! As I had read #3 the characters were familiar and I did not have difficulty following them, even if I hadn't been introduced to them I think I would have coped.

What a suspense, oh my the body count was horrific. The characters were great and the best of it I have the next book on my shelf to read this time. I thought the narrator was so-so, no character differentiation, however she didn't detract too much from the book, just didn't give it added value. 4.5 stars.

Disappointed!!

Any additional comments?

After seeing all those great reviews I was looking forward to listening to this book. But there were so many characters to try to keep up with and the plot was just completely unbelievable. Although I am quite willing to suspend my disbelief this story took it way too far. I did like the two main characters, but I felt sorry fir them being stuck in this silly story!

Great Thriller

I always fall slightly in love with the leading men in Karen Rose books, and this happened again with Deacon, FBI, haha.

A therapist is involved in a road accident when a naked, injured girl runs in front of her car. Already part of an ongoing stalking incident, the therapist is rightly terrified when she discovers bodies are being buried in her new house! Enter Deacon and the FBI trying to work out who the baddie is.

Too closely related

Enjoyed it very much but felt there were too many people in it, particularly relatives! Was inclined to get mixed up and have to go back to listen again.

gripping. loved it.

twists and turns. Made me really invest in the characters. long book but worth every minute.
