"MOM?! DAD?!
Who would do this?”

Sixteen years ago, young Blake Wilder arrived home to find her parents brutally murdered. As the devastated Blake frantically searched her house for her baby sister. She soon realized the young girl was missing, nowhere to be found. Now no longer a helpless child, agent Wilder must fight mysterious forces that are willing to do whatever it takes to keep her from the answers and revenge she’s been searching for.

With pieces moving in the background that would put Blake's life and the lives of the people around her in jeopardy.
Blake is suddenly assigned to investigate a series of brutal murders the likes of which she's never seen before.
Murders that are being live streamed to a growing audience who seem thirsty for the blood and violence the killer is inflicting upon his victims.

The case leads Blake and her team on a twisted tale of revenge as convoluted as it is disturbing. As they follow the clues, they find a disparate trail of pieces and must find a way to connect them all together before the next murder is broadcast to the world.

And moving in the background of their investigation is the looming confrontation with The Thirteen. Blake must prepare herself for a final conflict with the organization that stole her family. That stole her childhood.

Everything has led to this… and everything will end here.

I received an ARC copy of this book. I am always anxiously awaiting the next installment in the Blake Wilder FBI Mystery Thriller series, and this one definitely does not disappoint! I read this book in a little over a day, as I couldn't put it down! I think it might be the best one yet. The action is fast-paced, characters are engaging, and the plot resolutions are very believable. Can't wait for the next installment in the series!

No More Lies is the 13th book in The Blake Wilder FBI series by Elle Gray. These books are a kind of combination Mystery/Suspense. This one was one of my favorites. Blake Wilder's parents were brutally murdered when she was just a child and her sister Kit was taken. She has made it her mission in life to find out the truth and find her sister. She became an FBI Agent to track down people just like the ones that killed her parents. At the same time she is hunting the group called the Thirteen as all evidence leads to them as the killers of her parents. This book leads closer to The Thirteen and she almost loses her life in the process. I would recommend this series to anyone that enjoys this type of genre. It draws you in and keeps you wanting more.

13 book series - Blake Wilder FBI

This series is a satisfying rollercoaster. Book 13 wraps it all up. Each book has a crime to solve but also advances the hunt for the 13 - a dangerous group working behind the scenes to control . Agent Wilder is a strong intuitive FBI agent who runs her highly successful team . Great series!

wow!

Conspiracies, old and new, afflict the team and Blake, both professionally and personally.

Brutal beatings, torture and homicides of paroled pedophiles are being live-streamed and the team digs to uncover a common nexus between all of the known victims and the new homicides.

A definite must read book and series

This was a fantastic story that you certainly won't want to miss! However, I would highly recommend that you read this series from the beginning. Each book is about a different case that Blake Wilder and her team are assigned to, and each one is concluded in that story. There is a secondary plot that continues throughout the series in regards to Blake's private life, and has plagued her since childhood. The cases that they work are intense, complex, and full of intriguing twists and turns. The secondary plot is a wild, crazy, and unique story that is heartbreaking, emotional, devastating, has caused quite a bit of paranoia, but certainly not without reason.
In order to understand the entire story, it's important to read this series from the start. It will give you a better comprehension of the characters, backgrounds, connections, the different groups, and the dynamics between all of them .They're all absolutely fantastic stories, and you certainly won't be disappointed. I would also recommend you read the Pax Arrington series. His character is introduced in this series, and I know that you'll enjoy it as well.
I can't wait for more of this series, and I'm looking forward to reading the next release.
I would definitely recommend this book, series, and outstanding author.

WOW, color me surprised.

This one wasn’t quite as gruesome as the last, but it was brutal. Blake and her team connect the dots and recognize they have a serial killer in their midst. Blake has managed to acclimate Lucas and Nina into the team fold and their combined tenacity and talents are put to the test as they rush to avoid another murder. The background story is accelerated as well. I so look forward to each new adventure, I began Book #14, The Unlucky Girl, before writing this review.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫
I think this one is my favorite so far!
What a twist! Craziness, I knew something big was coming soon with the shake ups in the last couple of books, however I didn’t see that coming! I was convinced of the flip side (you’ll get what I mean by flip side when you read)
This one was the perfect blend of hunting a serial killer(s) and the hunt for the elusive Thirteen!
With the perfect amount of closure? Hopefully Blake is able to move forward with her life now, since she finally trusted her gut again (which she stopped doing/second guessed herself because of stupid Mark).

I can't believe that I did not see this one coming! I am glad that the Thirteen saga is finally done with but I truly did not see that one... I continue to enjoy the cased that Blake and her grew take on and am happy beyond words to know that the next book will now be of the amazing things Blake and Kit will be able to do together as I think the author can manage to get Kit to work with Blake on getting bad guys off the streets.

Finding the Truth

As always, Blake Wilder gives you a ride for your money. Blake finally finds the truth of The Thirteen. After years of finding out the truth of her parents death. This story has many twists and turns and leads you to several paths the story line can go. Always trust your gut!! This story gets my 5 star rating and I believe it is justified. This series is recommended for all mystery lovers.

Deep dive into corruption at the highest level with some police corruption added in.

The 13 feel they can kill, blackmail, beat, ruin just because they think they are the final judge of everything and everyone. This books keep the final answer in the dark with blind corners and pure deceit even against friends. Couldn't put it down. Read it if you get a chance,you won't regret it.

Who is Trust Worthy?

Blake keeps questioning who can she trust vs can't trust regarding the Thirteen. The team is given a complex case as someone is killing pedophile people. While a feeling that what they did was not good killing them also is not right. They solved the case and Blake finally decided who she could trust and set up the guilty individual . Kit and Blake are finally together. Good reading.

Finished this one and the adventure of the first 13 books has ended. Looking forward to see what’s next for Blake and Kit. There’s 30 books in this series. I’m waiting to read the next because book 7 of the Bear and Mandy Logan series just came out. Ordered it October 17th last year! So glad to finally read it. LT Ryan is the author of that series. He has a few series out and I like him as an author

The end…

I’m so glad it was all wrapped up in a nice bow. If I’m being honest if it had gone on any longer I might have lost interest. As it is now, I can’t think of a better end to this challenge that had faced Blake her whole life. It’s a great series that should be adapted for a movie or series. Excellent writing and not far off the mark for just how corrupt life is. I highly recommend.

It's Over

Blake and her team get the bad guys (of course) and the Thirteen are taken down. Kit and Blake are able to continue on with their lives. Sad to see this series end!! I think another book is in order so we can see what Blake and Kit get into next!!!! I hope this author has another series that is as good as this one.

Great series

I got hooked on the 1st book in the series & could not stop. I have enjoyed each one. Very well written. Great storylines. The 1st book flows nicely into the next book into the next etc. The characters are well defined. Prime or Netflix should turn this into a series. It would be a great show. Will be adding Elle Gray in my list of favorite authors!

No More Lies(Blake Wilder FBI Mystery Thriller Book 13)

OMG!!!!!!!!!!! Kit is alive and out of her coma, The Thirteen has gone down in flames an Blake and Kit are finally free. Blake managed to catch 4 murderers that were killing pedophiles and finally managed to get the team acting as a group. On to (I think) the last one and I can't wait.

nice wrap up

It's taken 13 books to solve the mystery of the Thirteen so it seemed fitting we learn the ending in this 13th book. Thanks for the entertainment, definitely enjoy the character build and recommend the author if you like books on the macabre side of serial killers, with good guys/gals fighting on the right side of justice to get them.

What a book!

I was hooked on this series from the beginning and this one was as good as the rest. A series of brutal murders has Blake and her team trying to solve a mystery without any clues. Undaunted, they bring justice for the victims.
Meanwhile, Blake’s past comes to the fore. Can she believe one person over the other?

Kept me guessing until th end!

I've read this series in order from book 1 to this one each getting better and better!! That's saying a lot since the first was really great! I love how the characters are evolving and the fun banter between the FBI team members is always entertaining. This one kept me wondering who Blake should trust right up until the VERY LAST chapter!

So relieved that we finally dismantled The Thirteen. As much as I loved the suspense across the 13 books, I’m happy that it reached its end. I’m even happier than the series isn’t ending here! I wasn’t sure if it would continue once everything came out. I’m looking forward to the rest of the series, especially seeing more of Kit

Suspenseful

I enjoyed feeling like I was working the case with the team. Always a hint of who it might be, while still leaving you guessing. Also, love keeping up with Paxton and Olivia's stories too. Can't wait for the next book.
