COMPELLED TO MURDER II: Stevens Lineage

Rate this book
They say the sins or iniquities of one generation passes to the other. In this murderous tale, you’ll witness a father’s sins contaminate his offspring, shaping the mind of a would-be serial killer. This sinister tale details the iniquitous deeds of Earl Rae Knavish. Compelled To Murder II – Steven’s Lineage takes place in the small town of Cold Water, MI. The year is 1978, making young Steven just five years of age. Owner and operators of the Meeks' Funeral Home, Steven’s parents Earl and Olivia, provide a service which turns out to be a perfect cover for Earl Rae’s nefarious obsessions. Earl Rae becomes fixated on Lacey Wayward, a twenty-year-old college student, who has returned home to spend summer vacation with her mother, adopted-father, and fifteen-year-old sister. His obsession with Lacey not only puts her in danger but also compromises the safety of her family and friends. Lacey finds herself personally responsible for her sister Sadie, who unfortunately entertains the same inner wild child Lacey, herself, once harbored. Will Lacey’s feelings of obligation toward her little sister be to their detriment? Can Lacey keep her friends and family out of harm's way, while at the same time fighting for her own survival? Witness Earl Rae Knavish effectuate his every loathsome fantasy on those who dare rouse his wicked desires. In this tantalizing thriller, you’ll find out precisely how our misguided nemesis became COMPELLED TO MURDER. This is the beginning you’ve been waiting for since the release of its predecessor, with an ending you won’t want to miss.

Wow!

All I can say is wow! This book had me all over the place. Definitely a suspense thriller that will do well at the box office. I was not expecting some of the things that happened in the end of this book and was disappointed that Earl Rae survived. A thriller that keeps you guessing until the end. Great job by the author.

Not so happy ending

This book was interesting. The prequel explained a lot. It left some questions as well. I guess maybe another book may or may not answer.

WOW

Just like part 1, this book doesn't disappoint either. This non stop edge of your seat suspense thriller will have you biting your nails trying to figure out what would make Earl Rae become so devious. His actions remind me of an episode straight out of Criminal Minds. I love how the author put this story together, very well written and the character development was great. This storyline will have you focusing on one person of interest while overlooking others until the very end. Can't wait to read what's next for Steven as he navigates through life without Olivia while living with Earl Rae. Highly recommend reading this book.
