The Revelation: Her story isn't over yet...

Rate this book
The highly anticipated book five in the chilling DI Swanson thrillers!

Detective Inspector Alex Swanson thought the story ended with the confession. He was wrong.

It's only just begun.

After the death of a stranger in the woods, DI Swanson receives taunting messages from someone threatening his loved ones if he doesn't look in the right places for the killer. His colleagues laugh it off as an attention seeker - until someone he loves disappears.

The stakes have never been higher for DI Swanson as he fights to find the truth about a twisted network that goes far beyond what he ever could have thought possible. When someone else special to him is attacked, he realises he has to face this killer alone. Even if it means losing his own life to protect the ones he loves.

Another amazing book by Ashley Beegan . Good to follow on the story of DI Alex Swanson and Summer. Brilliant page turner with so many twists. I've read this in less than 12 hours.

I'm hoping there will be another one to continue their story.

Totally recommend this and any of her books. We'll done Ashley keep this story coming

Really liked this book but my biggest complaint was the character Summer, with her incessant whining. Ma’am, there are more pressing things to worry about than whether or not you are moving in with Swanson. PEOPLE ARE DYING!! Ugh she was annoying. Putting her aside though, the storyline was good and explained a lot from the previous book.
