FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF FAMISHED

"Smart, grisly, and unflinching...don't forget to breathe."
~Beth Teliho, award-winning author of Order of Seven

ASHES TO ASHES

It's been five years since the Looking Glass killer terrorized the streets of Ash Park, leaving a trail of dissected victims in his wake.

Five years since the Looking Glass killer kidnapped Hannah Montgomery, a woman Detective Petrosky had sworn to protect--a woman who looked just like his murdered daughter.
Five years of guilt-ridden nights Petrosky spent wishing he could find the balls to put a bullet in his brain.

But when a call comes in from the police department in Hannah Montgomery's hometown, Petrosky must re-evaluate all he knows to be true. Could the killing of Hannah Montgomery's father be connected to the Looking Glass case?

What he finds is the most shocking revelation of his career, one that tangles past and present in an inescapable web of deceit. For the Looking Glass killer isn't the only sadistic butcher he needs to find--the man who raped and burned his daughter alive is still out there, taunting him with the bodies of other victims. And the cases are too closely connected to tease apart.

Now Petrosky must holster his grief to track the man who destroyed the only good thing he's ever done.

And when Petrosky goes, he's taking that bastard with him.

Absolutely adored this fifth book of the Ash Park series. Petrosky shines like never before as he unravels not one, but two mysteries, including where Hannah Montgomery disappeared to and who killed his daughter Julie. A simultaneously thrilling and touching story about love and loss and ...well, Redemption. I hope O'Flynn continues this series. At this point, the characters feel real to me.

I will make you some promises right now: You won't see what's coming. You will gasp at least once. You will cringe about 8 times. You will be surprised. And you will love this book.

Smart enough to outsmart me (I pride myself in always being able to see what's up ahead!), TENSE - like ticking time bomb tense, so clean and well written, love & love-to-hate characters, and an epic final installment to the Ash Park novels. Sad to see it end BUT what a great run!

Redemption is the fifth book in the brilliant Ash Park Series by Meghan O’Flynn. This series just goes from strength to strength, each book delivering an intense, gripping, and polished read. As I have said numerous times now, I am so impressed with Ms. O’Flynn’s ability to spin an incredibly clever thriller- her books just get better and better as the series evolves. The amount of tension, suspense, shocks, and brilliant twists, surprises, and puzzling situations that she infuses into each story really makes me sit up and take notice- always unpredictable right up till the end- delivering heart pounding, stomach clenching, and mind-blowing reading. I read the instalments in fairly quick succession because I didn’t want to forget any of the details- so as each story unfolded, I was held in its grip, anxiously holding my breath, glued to the pages and clamouring to find out what happens….. and I’ve loved every single breathtaking moment.
I suppose that this could be read as a standalone if you really wanted to- but, I strongly recommend reading the entire series (or at the very least books #1 and #4) before starting this one and I will explain- this story takes place 6 months after the events of the previous book and there were pertinent, tragic developments that set the tone and mood of this book and impacts on one of the major characters mindset, in a huge way. The author also takes us full circle, taking us back to where this journey began by revisiting events and storyline from book #1- so I feel that having all that information is also important because it gives you a greater perspective of events, motivations, and insight into the recurring cast of characters, backstory, and other pertinent information. All of which will enhance your overall reading experience of this book (and series as a whole)!
Detective Edward Petrosky is a broken man. He was already heavily burdened by tragedy and pain from a traumatizing incident 10 years earlier, where his young daughter was brutally raped and murdered. Then the devastating events in the last book (#4) only compounded his feelings and self-loathing, as well as destroying the last remnants of his shattered soul- intensifying his guilt and self-recrimination. He’s in a major funk, down so deep he can’t see any light, feeling like he’s failed all the people he loved. But Ms. O’Flynn will push him to the limits, maybe even going so far as pushing him over the edge. He is thrown into a complex and multi-faceted investigation where the ghosts of the past come back into play. He’s thrust into the most intense situation to date! I can’t say too much more without giving away spoilers but suffice to say I gnawed off all my fingernails as I accompanied him through this shocking, thrilling and complicated story.
I really, really, really, really hope that this isn’t the last we’ll see of the Ash Park Series (hint, hint, Ms. O’Flynn 😊)
Incredible!

Thank you, Ms. O’Flynn!!!

Detective Petrosky was suppose to protect Hannah Montgomery, a woman who looked like his murdered daughter. That was five years ago, but going to the town where Hannah grew up brings more questions than answers. Could Hannah's father be connected to the cold case Looking Glass? Detective Petrosky is so grief riddled that it is hard for him to keep things straight. Can he find the man who took not only his daughter's life, but his life too? This book ties previous books into this one in a smooth wonderful way. I love how the "old characters" are brought to life in this one. I received ARC of this book. The review is voluntary and of my own opinons. If you want the answers your going to have to read the book to find them out.

IN YOUR OWN FLAME;
HOW COULD YOU RISE ANEW IF YOU HAVE
NOT FIRST BECOME ASHES?”
~Friedrich Nietzsche,
Thus Spoke Zarathustra

Phantasmagorical! Yup! I pulled out the big guns and used my thesaurus for this review! I was legit running out of words for Meghan O’Flynn’s Ash Park novels! I hate sounding like a broken record and I want to be as correct as I can. These books are amazing! Buy them all at once! You will want to knock out a day or two, depending on how fast you read, or devour them. I know my family wasn’t very pleased that I ignored them each time I picked one up ha-ha, but I was one that devoured them mostly past my bedtime, and wasn’t so fun the next day though!  I will warn you though, if you read these after dark, they can induce nightmares. (Perfect for that Halloween season that is upon us.)

“Redemption” is the fifth installment of the Ash Park series from Meghan O’Flynn. Here is about where I would really recommend that you go back and read the previous books before you start this one, especially the first one, “Famished”. For this one we go back to the beginning and revisit ‘Looking Glass Killer’ who kidnapped Hannah Montgomery. I have been dying to know what happened to her since the end of Famished. That was a cliffhanger that has been nagging me for four novels now and I was so excited to finally find out how this would all come together. Let me tell you though… In true Meghan O’Flynn fashion there was nothing predictable about it! Nothing! I love this about O’Flynn’s writing! She makes it so much fun to read. I am always some of those that seems to have the movie or book figured out halfway through. It’s an extra treat when I can’t, like an extra bang for my buck! My detective, Petrosky is back and set on figuring out all the pieces of the puzzle, regardless of the danger factor. No spoilers here though. For the juicy bits you will have to pick up a copy for yourself. I will now be waiting with baited breath for the next installment in the series, “The Jilted.” In the meantime, gratefully I there is one more novel by Meghan O’Flynn I can scoop up that I haven’t read yet. Thanks for another great thriller O’Flynn!

Redemption (Ash Park #5) by Meghan O'Flynn was a heart pounding, feels invoking, raw psychological thriller that not only hooked me like the other books, but it brought me back to the first book, to that unsolved case, that's ends with a shocking conclusion.

Coming off the emotional punch to the face from the last book, this book picks up pretty close to when books four ends. I will say before I continue, though these books can be read as standalones, they are following a connecting plot line, and time line. So I highly suggest reading the other books in this series. Especially the first book, as this one directly connects to it. You won't get the full emotional boot kick, if you skip it. Plus, all the books in this series are freaking amazing!

I don't even know how to review this book, it wasn't what I was expecting, and frankly this is probably one of the best books I have read this year. But, let me be clear, to get the full effect, you got to read the other books. You got to see the darkness that's been smothering Petrosky. His downward spiral, his ghosts, his willingness to just end it all. All of that, from those books, everything leads up to this one. This book will shock you, wreck you and, you will not see the ending coming. I was second guessing everything, and it was, wow.. just wow.

I really hope this isn't the end of the series, I feel like there needs to be one more, just one more to close it out fully. But if this is the last book, then I have to say, that Meghan O'Flynn has done this series justice and ended it just as strong as it was started. Every book was strong, and that consistency of high level writing is what separates this series, this book, from others like it.

In saying that, please, please, take my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval that this book is not only a must read, it's a classic in the making. It will break your emotions, have you struggling to keep it together, and you will shed some tears. This book, this series, is on a whole other level, and is worth every bit of praise it has received.

Happy Reading

Redemption by Meghan O’Flynn is the fifth book in her Ash Park Series and I just can’t say enough good things about this one. Each book grips you from page one and takes you in and out of dark places showing you a different terror and characters that willingly walk into that darkness. I can’t say enough good things about O’Flynn and this series, picking book one up was a whim, but I haven’t been able to look the other way since. O’Flynn spins a story so well that it draws you in and leaves you breathless before you realize there was an issue. This book takes place roughly 6 months after book 4, so while each book is written in a way that it could be read as a stand-alone, I totally recommend reading them all in order, so the characters and stories all make the most sense. The brilliant twists, surprises, and tension that unfolded with each of the installments in the Ask Park Series kept me glued to the pages and clamoring to find out what happens next. In Redemption, we are taken full circle, going back to where the journey with these characters all began and getting to see the storyline from a completely different perspective. Getting this back story on the characters, as well as motivations for why they did what they did made this a very interesting take on this series. This book really tied the entire series together making it an even better reading experience.
Detective Petrosky is definitely the star of this book, and while he is very much a broken man, he is going to be pushed to a new limit with this complex investigation that is going to bring the ghosts of past back into play. This investigation really took me for a ride, keeping me on the edge of my seat afraid to turn the lights off. If you are looking for a fantastic read that is guaranteed to keep you coming back for more than this is the book, nay series, for you. I can’t wait to see where this series goes from here, or any other books in O’Flynn’s collection because I just need to get my hands on more of her writing.

Redemption: An Ash Park Novel (Volume 5) by Meghan O’Flynn

5+++++++ Stars for the book, the series and this amazingly awesome author.

I actually only read the last 2 of this series and am so hooked I can't even tell you, I will have the first 3 and actually think I might want this whole series sitting on my bookshelf next to some other authors that write in this genre, I won't mention their names but you would know who I was talking about if I did mention them. This author deserves to be right next to them and for some of the writing in these stories Id say she even bypassed them, so yeah Im thinking I will add this series to my Christmas list so that I can read it from the very beginning and what a great excuse to read the last two all over again.

I don't even have the words to explain how I feel about this book...The name this author chose is so spot on and I couldn't wait to read it, after finishing Hidden I wasn't quite sure what I would be walking into but I just knew that this author would take care of it and she did not let me down. Oh, thats not saying it was an easy read because it wasnt when some details were explained or we got to hear from a totally different voice, it was those times I just wanted to crawl through the kindle and beat the tar out of someone.

I truly love Petrosky, he's not easy to love but I absolutely do, and Jackson, simply awesome!! I wasn't sure at first but that didn't last long.

I just don't know what else to say without going into this long drawn out review full of spoilers so I think it is best I just stop and tell you to pick these books up, don't start on the 4th like I did, go back and read them all, I can tell there's a lot I missed, although it didn't hinder my ready at all I still know I must have them all.

Brilliant storyteller, I read it in less than a day, and I will read every book this author writes, she is now firmly placed on my favorites list of all time.

Redemption: An Ash Park Novel (Volume 5)
By: Meghan O’Flynn
5 out of 5 stars

The story Redemption: An Ash Park Novel (Volume 5) by Meghan O’Flynn is a book that I truly loved reading. It has an atmosphere of suspense that had me on the edge of my seat the whole time I was reading it. The book had me wondering what was going to happen next and where the leads/clues were all leading to. It is a story that is emotional, and my emotions went up and down like a rollercoaster. Intense, gripping, thrilling, and dark this is a story that grabbed me from the very beginning and I couldn’t put it down until I had read the final chapter. This is a story that has Detective Petrosky, after getting a call from a police department, re-evaluating two cases that have and continue to haunt him. What he is learning has him wondering and searching for the truth while sorting out the lies. Detective Petrosky has a heavy heart as he believes that he has failed everyone he has ever loved. He soon finds himself dealing with new revelations and other victims. Will Detective Petrosky find a connection between the killings? One of those cases is the murder of his daughter. Will Petrosky find her killer and just how far is he willing to go to make that happen? Read this story to find out. This is a book and series that I have loved since reading the first story. I love the way that the investigation and theories are detailed, and I always felt like I was trying to put together a puzzle to find out the truth. I found myself thinking about this story even after I had finished reading it. It is wonderfully written with amazing characters.

Redemption by Meghan O’Flynn is book five and the last in the Ash Park series. I have spent so much time in Ash Park, and I am sad this moving, engrossing, mystery filled, series has come to an end. O’ Flynn was able to grab me from book one till this book. Each book getting better and better and this ONE truly blew me out of the water. The crime coming back to haunt Detective Petrosky, connection to the Looking Glass Killer bringing up so much while Petrosky still dealing with his grief and must finally put this case to rest SOLVED! There are times I want to slap Petrosky but this book, showed me again shows me just how much I have grown to love him. He is a broken down man who has had to deal with such pain and tragedy. This man and all his grief are thrown into a case and investigation that will make him face his past and his pain HEAD ON!
I fully can’t put into words how much this book and this series have stayed with me and will continue to stay with me. Meghan O’Flynn delivers each time, and makes me want to read all the books in one sitting. I am addicted to her suspense, her strong characters, and her amazing writing. I am so sad to see this end and truly hope that one day we get to visit Ash Park again. I highly recommend this series, this author, you WILL NOT be disappointed.

Redemption is the conclusion of Meghan O’Flynn’s Ash Park series (there will be another book but she calls it Prequel Novella so …) Oh my goodness, what a closing it is … all those questions we have had in our hear, the pain Detective Petrosky has felt, the guilt that has been drowning him, the losses he has suffered … the puzzle will be put together and revealed and you will be left stunned …
You MUST read all the books leading up to this show down, you need to know the history, the people involved and their stories, you need to have lived with Detective Petrosky … (yeah, someone could say that you do not need to but do yourself a favour, don’t go off half cocked!) ALL the previous books lead up to this one! I promise you, you will be shocked, you will be wrecked, AND you have no idea how it all will end, UNTIL you get to the end (unless you are some sort of genius and mind reader and … not me …)
I think this is the best writing I have seen from the writer so far, she has gotten better with every single story in the series – she has dug so deep into the puzzle that she is breathing it, with every single word she has put down on the paper … You are guaranteed a fantastic read and you will not be able to wait for Jilted (the prequel novella), I wonder where the writer will be taking us …

WOW! What a way to end a series! Redemption is Book 5 in the Ash Park Series by Meghan O’Flynn. I wasn’t sure what to expect from this book seeing as though the last one left you a little worried. Detective Ed Petrosky has lost his partner and the son he never had. Now that Shannon is moving on with the kids, what does he do? That is the constant question that keeps remaining throughout the entire book. However, in true Meghan O’Flynn style, she has a twist for us. A new partner for Petrosky! And this one is a loop that you did not see coming! I’m not going to go in detail because I want you to be surprised but let’s just say Petrosky is way out of his league on this one! But you will definitely love it! I know I did. I absolutely loved this book as well as I did the others! I would definitely read this series in order because it ends up being one ongoing story. This author has really impressed me with her writing style and raw nature that you do not tend to see very often! I’m glad this series has come to my attention and I truly cannot wait to read more from her! It isn’t easy writing murder mystery and to do it so well and to be able to keep one’s attention through 5 books is amazing! Well done Ms. O’Flynn! You have done this series and this genre proud!

Redemption: An Ash Park Novel by Meghan O'Flynn is one not to be missed. It totally took me by surprise. Nope I totally did not see that coming. Never in a million years did I suspect that. Meghan has done an exceptionally fantastic job on this series and Redemption rounded everything off nicely. Except I am still pouting/heartbroken over the loss from the last book. I am not going to mention anything about the story because you need to find out for yourself but let me tell you there were a few heart attacks, a few choice words, a lot of emotional turmoil, unbelieving that it was happening and that was just from me. Imagine how the characters felt and what they were going through. Meghan’s writing is effortless and she makes you feel as though you are going through everything the characters are going through and she is the queen of plots, twists and turns, roller coaster rides and so much more. Ash Park series is not for the faint of heart, it is one who loves thrills and chills, murder and mayhem. I swear this series should be made into movies.

Redemption by Meghan O’Flynn is the fifth book in her Ash Park series. As gripping and intense as the others this book is a must read.
Detective Petrosky is haunted my memories of his daughter. He is haunted by memories of a killer and he is haunted be memories of another young woman. One who reminds him of his daughter.
He is so haunted by everything in his past that he wished he could just end it all. Until he receives a phone call - the one that could change everything.
Detective Petrosky is forced to put his grief on hold to throw himself back into a fight he thought long over. The question is, who will be the victor.
This series is such a strong series. Each book has you hooked and this one was no different. The story takes you on a fast paced and intense journey, one that you will never be sure as to what the outcome will be. It will have you not wanting to put the book down until it is over. Meghan O’Flynn has done it again and produced a book that is so easy to read. Definitely worth recommending!

Redemption was a thrilling 5 star read and book 5 in the Ash Park series. I was so excited to get my hands on this book to see how the series ended and I wasn’t disappointed at all.

I really enjoy books that have me trying to figure out things as I’m reading, only to be thrown way off base. There were several twists and turns that added great elements to the story. We continue with Detective Petrosky and the cases he is working on. Could there be a connection between them? Will he finally solve his daughters murder?

I don’t want to give anything away about this great read so be prepared for an intense read that will leave you emotionally spent. Meghan does a great job of pulling you right in with her writing. All of the secondary characters were great. It was great how everything tied together in this series finale. I highly suggest reading all of the books in the series before this one.Beware that there are some scenes in the series that could be triggers for some. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Redemption: An Ash Park Novel, Volume 5 by Meghan O’Flynn
5 out of 5 stars
This is a book where I had to sit and pace myself. This story picks up 5 years after a killer was loose on the streets. Think London’s Jack the Ripper, but in modern day Ash Park. Detective Petrosky is a recurring character from a previous book, Volume 4, Hidden Ashes, in this series and he has some serious ghosts to slay. All of his past and the ghost of his murdered daughter, a victim of the Looking Glass Killer, comes rushing back when a woman is kidnapped and she looks just like his daughter.
Petrosky is on the hunt for this terrible, terrible person. The last 5 years of guilt, sorrow and hatred is fueling his desire to bring his killer down.
O’Flynn is a masterful storyteller for the ages. The details and depth that she gives to each of her stories is incredible and I would place her talent on par with James Patterson and Patricia Cornwall. These books can be read as standalone but I HIGHLY recommend reading them all and in order.

Redemption
An Ash Park Novel
Volume 5
By Meghan O'Flynn
☆☆☆☆☆
This is a complete suspenseful thriller. No spoilers here.

Detective Petrosky is a long time detective. He has been through a lot, and lost a lot. His goal is to stop and catch, The Looking Glass Killer. Not an easy job sense he is one step ahead, of the Detective. But Detective Petrosky will put the case to rest, if it's the last thing he does. This is not his only case. He must also find the scum that murdered his daughter. The one good thing in his life, was taken tortured, burned alive, and left in a field. This Detective will not rest, until these two cases are solved.

Meghan O'Flynn has written the most intense murder mystery I have read in a long time. This story had me at chapter 1, page one. A non stop thriller, just my kind of story. The characters are just as intense as their story. This has been one of those books you hate to put down. Just enough action to keep you searching for the killer yourself. You must read the series in order. Not for those under 18 or with a weak heart.

This series just keeps getting better and better. There are surprises at every turn. This book is well written and just as exciting as the rest of the series. It is also just as twisted and gruesome as the other books as well.

Detective Petrosky is an amazing detective, father and person. He is a human. He has made mistakes from the beginning of book one. But he is human. He loves with his whole heart, but he won’t tell you that. He’s tough on the outside and even tougher on the inside. I love that he is a larger type man, with common health conditions. Doesn’t everyone love granola bars!?

I also love the return of certain characters from previous books, especially Shannon Morrison. Watching her change from the hard as nails prosecutor into a loving and caring mother was an interesting twist. Knowing that some of the characters get closure, if not their own version of a happily ever after, makes this book a fantastic finish for this series.

I highly recommend this book as the perfect conclusion to the Ash Park series.

I knew it couldn't last. This time its Petrosky who's a nervous wreck and by now he's having constant thoughts of ending it all. But wait, Hannah Montgomery (from book 1) is back. Petrosky can't believe she's alive. But here it goes round in circles. Her father is dead and Petrosky thinks Hannah killed him. But Hannah only admits to killing Dominic, who she claims was the Looking Glass Killer, and then only in self defence.

Petrosky wants to haul her in but he doesn't want her to be guilty so he equivocates and takes her to his place where she is supposed to stay inside. She tells him she has a lead on who killed his daughter, Julie, 10 years ago. He can't haul her in for official questioning now as she might have more information for him. He becomes obsessed with finding Julie's killer. This book got bogged down with going around in circles and obsessing about suicide. It was my least favourite of the series, just too miserable and maudlin.

Redemption (Ash Park, #5)
By Meghan O’Flynn
5 stars

Redemption, the fifth book in the Ash Park series and the fifth book that I could not put down! Each story really has gone from strength to strength. The author has truly done an amazing job keeping the excellent level of writing the same over the series; the plot has been exciting, gritty, and dark and has kept my attention throughout. She builds tension like no other author I have read before and throws in some fantastic and much unexpected twists! Just when you think you know what’s going to happen along comes one of those very twists! I would highly recommend reading the books in order but for absolute definite book 4 should be read before this one.
This has been an amazing series, definitely not for the faint-hearted. It is full of amazing characters, dark, gritty moments and above all absolutely flawless writing. I really cannot recommend Redemption and the Ash Park series enough!

Redemption An Ash Park Novel y Meghan O'Flynn

4 Stars!!!!


I must say that even though it isn't my go to genre I was still as impressed with this book as I was
with the first. I found that the author has a unique way of writing that the books just flow one
right after the other. There is a constant that brings each book together. I was as hooked from page
one of this book five as I was from book one.

This book really brings things full circle as Petrosky really has to battle his inner demons and
work his way through the case. I really felt my heart strings tugging for him. I like how the author
was able to make it so that you had bated breath to see how things would turn out. Petrosky really
has his redemption in this final book. I really would like to read more from this author in the future
and even though it isnt my go to genre I will be reading this series again as I am sure that as with
most you tend to find details and things that you missed the first time.

Four Stars

This series is so depressing and creepy. I get chills reading every book. In this book we pick up with Shannon trying to convince Petrosky to move to Atlanta with them. Ash Park is an awful place to live. The murders and finding murders is all you know about this town. I would’ve left after the first murder. The author pulls on your emotions so well through all these Ash Park books. You cry for the, and want to throw your find. I don’t know whether to be creeped out or impressed with the author imagination. The amount of details the author bring out in this story. Every chapter was an involvement on the last. I recommend you start this story at book one and you will get the same impression. The characters are well written. The chapters were quick and unforgettable. I love books that take me to the location the author envisioned while writing the story.

Redemption by Meghan O’Flynn is a five star novel. This is the fifth and last installment of the Ash Park series. With Ash Park being a not so nice neighborhood of Detroit, you can imagine lots of bad things happen there. Petrosky is a detective and ready to move on to the next world. He has lost so much and he sees so much hurt and pain everyday that it is getting harder and harder to deal with. Now his only friend is moving away with her kids. He guesses it will be ok though because he doesn’t really feel like socializing anymore anyway. When his cases take a turn and start blurring lines between his daughter’s case and these new ones, he knows he needs to stick around to solve the case of his daughter. How could this guy still be out there lurking and killing without him figuring out who it is and capturing him. A captivating and riveting story that will keep you turning the pages all the way until the end.

Redemption: An Ash Park Novel by Meghan O’Flynn
Four Stars

Redemption is the fifth book in the Ash Park series by Meghan O’Flynn. This series is really amazingly disturbing in the psychological sense. Getting into the minds killers that are twisted and commit horrific acts, is Ms. O’Flynns specialty. This book and series is definitely not for the faint of heart. This book can be read as a stand alone, but I highly recommend you read the series in order because the books are all great reads and you will miss some big parts of the backstory. This book is full of mystery, suspense, horror and disturbing situations. This book is Detective Petrovsky’s story that started ten years earlier with his young daughters rape and murder. This book was filled with twists and turns and I really couldn’t guess who the serial killer was till the end. I hope tha this series continues, and can’t wait to read more from this author.

Redemption by Meghan O'Flynn An Ash Park Novel Book 5

5-Star Novel

Out of all of the Ash Park Novels this one by far is my favorite. Hannah Montgomery disappeared in the first book after escaping death from the Looking Glass Killer. She is discovered by Detective Petrosky and Detective Scott. She shares that she may have info on the person who killed Petrosky's daughter so instead of hauling her in for questioning he provided her a safe place to stay.

I loved Hannah being back in this novel. I really liked her character in the first book. The author never ceases to amaze me with the detail in her books. I also like that Petrosky seemed to be remade into a better man with this novel. This novel was also an emotional one but very enjoyable. I thought I had it figured out toward the end but there was a change I did not foresee.

Redemption: An Ash Park Novel (Volume 5)
By Meghan O'Flynn
The books in this series are emotional, dark, twisted, and will get in your head, and this one is just like that as well. This book is so exceptionally well written that it stayed with me long after I put it down. I thought I knew what was going to happen and I find out that I was completely wrong and then I was thrust into another twist. This book had me completely captivated throughout the entire read. This story is not for the weak at heart, because it takes you into an intense, dark and twisted world. I suggest you read these books in order to have more background and it will enhance your reading experience. I also think that you won't want to miss any of the stories in this series because they are all exceptional reads. I highly recommend this book you won't want to miss out.

Redemption: An Ash Park Novel (Volume 5)
By Meghan O’Flynn

Redemption is book five in the Ash Park series by Meghan O’Flynn. I have to say I don’t know how any of these can be a favourite, they are all as good as each other. As with the other books in this series it is very well written, and most dark and twisted. But then what did we expect of this series? Like I have said in my other reviews of this series I probably wouldn’t read at night in bed, if you are like me it will just about give you nightmares. However, I do highly recommend that this series is read, you will not be disappointed at all. The whole series has lots of twists and turns, so if you like reading books that give you goose bumps, have you wondering what’s happening next and murder, then you need to get this series and read it. Thank you, Meghan, for and awesome, scary read.

Redemption: An Ash Park Novel (Volume 5) by Meghan O'Flynn. I love these books. Its the continuing story of Investigator Petrosky and The Looking Glass Killer. He has promised to protect Hannah Montgomery who reminds him so much of his murdered daughter. He swears he will protect her if its the last thing he does. But when her father ends up murdered he has to wonder if its connected to The Looking Glass Killer. Petrosky is determined to keep Hannah safe and find his daughters killer at the same time. At this point in the series you feel like you can actually feel Petrosky's pain because he feels like an old friend. This book will cause you to have nightmares but you will love it! They are very twisted and you think you know what's going to happen next but its never quite what you thought.
