I read anything and everything Amanda Stevens writes she is that good. I am trying to find all 50 some books she has written. There is a serial killer on the loose and the body count keeps rising.

[Karen Jones · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good strong mystery with lots of twists and turns. Lite on the romance but it still works. It took me a bit to get into it but once about half way through you don’t want to stop until you figure out which of the potential suspects is guilty.

[Crystal Ecklund · Rating 4 out of 5]

A very good thriller. Towards the end, i didn't want to keep reading because I was terrified of what was going to happen. Definitely lots of moments of suspense. Though I have to assume the boat coming in the bay at night was Donnie. That was never revealed. It was a mystery that left me guessing and loved how Trent and Sydney worked together to solve a 20 year mystery.

No es lo que más me ha gustado de la autora ni por casualidad. Al ser breve, sentí que faltaba mucho contexto y que no se disfruta del desarrollo, todo pasa apuradísimo y muy líneal. No hay misterio en realidad.

Excellent read! A very intriguing mystery that was not easy to figure out. I definitely want to read more about these characters. There's so much more to their story.

This was a quick read. I was able to figure out who the killer was, but there were still some surprises. It was a good read.

Mystery

An interesting who done it. A little bit of a different story than I expected. A good read. Missing some of that creepy atmosphere that we normally get from this author.
