A brutal mystery haunts the remote hills of Silver Hill County.
A lone stranger stumbles into town with no memory of who he is or what he has done. He turns himself in for murder. His story sounds impossible. He claims he woke up in a barn full of bodies.
Sheriff TK Kessel soon discovers the man was telling the truth. Nineteen men and women lie dead inside the barn. All signs point to something dark and deeply disturbing. And with the stranger suffering from the same arsenic poisoning as the victims, TK is left wondering if he is a killer, a survivor, or both.
While TK is buried in the case, FBI agent Sarah Cross is fighting her way back into field service. A sudden break in her Dragonslayer Syndicate investigation pulls her away, but when the lead goes cold, she returns to Silver Hill just as the mass murder case takes a darker turn.
As Sarah and TK dig through lies, buried secrets, and a trail of poisoned faith, they uncover a chilling web of manipulation that reaches far deeper than either of them expected.
The closer they get to the truth, the more dangerous the case becomes. Cults, deception, and a killer hiding behind a mask of righteousness.
We're back in Silver Hill, and boy is this one a doozy! When a stranger stumbles into town with no memory but is mumbling about mass murder, TK has to put the pieces together to figure out what the guy is referring to. Sarah is at Quantico requalifying for the field, but her boss sends her to chase down a lead in the Dragonslayer case.
I'm absolutely loving this series, and I think this is my favorite one yet! I can't wait to find out what's next for Sarah & TK!
The editor of this series has let several inconsistencies appear from the first books to now, this 6th. In the 4th or 5th book Cross all of a sudden went from driving a brand new WHITE SUV to a BLACK one - Interceptor? Also, Mayor Howard's wife was alive and well in earlier books, now all of a sudden he's described as a widower. Finally, Cross has a sister, Cara, who drove her crazy in book 1 - calling and texting. Now, in this book, she gets a call and it's described as the first time she's tried to contact her. These don't really affect the overall plot, but they are irritating enough to lessen MY enjoyment of reading this series.
Good, with one caveat. Although I like a strong female lead, Sarah is awfully pushy and seems to run ramrod over others, including her office agents. If she’s the boss, she should be more respectful to her team. I wouldn’t want to work for her. You can be strong without being such a know it all. Doesn’t mean I won’t continue the series, though. It’s nice to read a novel with few typos.
Wow! This story was riveting, the way Sarah and TK waded through to get the answers they needed. Also sad, because 19 people! Hopefully, the next story will have Sarah answering TK’s question!
Well written and kept you on your seat, And it was unexpectedI was honestly shocked with how this book ended. I will sure no spoilers but it is a good reason I will share no spoilers it is a good read.
TK and Sarah investigate the murders of members of a religious cult hidden in the backcountry of TK’s county. So glad they are working better as a team and that their relationship is improving. A very enjoyable series.
Lots of windshield time for our friends TK and Sarah Cross - but it’s worth every minute as they hunt down a sadistic mass murderer. Can’t wait for the next episode!
This was excellent about Sarah and TK looking who caused a mass murder of many people and looking into who is responsible and why and finding who is responsible and getting him with lots of suspense and action. Thank you for this great story.
