Heartless: A Liz Lockhart Novel
The handcuffs were on…
…and Simone would spend the rest of her life behind bars.
Or so Liz thought…
Liz expected that capturing her husband’s murderer would bring a sense of relief. However, she can’t quite shake the deep-rooted sense of unease she feels every time her thoughts stray to her former friend. When a new case comes across her desk, Liz welcomes the distraction. A young woman was brutally stabbed to death while walking alone at night.
Who wanted to end the victim’s life?
A list of suspects emerges from the victim’s troubled past and her current life…
…but none appear to be her killer.
Weeks pass with no leads. Then, Liz’s coworker lands a hauntingly similar case. When they compare notes, a strange clue links the crimes.
Were these two young women targets…
…or random victims of a budding serial killer?
Liz and her new partner must find out before the killer chooses his next victim.
You’ll love this suspenseful novel full of twists, turns, and red herrings that elevate the story to the next level.

About the author
Amanda Feyerbend
33 books16 followersAmanda Feyerbend—pronounced Fire-bend—grew up loving mysteries. As a child one of her favorite book series was The Boxcar Children. She would delve into their mysteries and imagine herself working alongside the gang. As she grew, Amanda usually found herself drawn to books with an overall mystery theme, whether the genre was Sci-fi, Fantasy, or Horror. She also loves watching police procedural movies and television shows.
Though her major in college was Biology, Amanda minored in film studies after an amazing high school literature class where she and her classmates made a short film mimicking the style used in the movie Memento. In a film writing class, she finished plotting out a two-year-old screenplay that she’d started after a car accident left her bedridden for a few months.
That screenplay—titled Endless Evil—gathered dust for several years until, in 2013, her coworker and best friend suggested she turn it into a novel. Amanda followed her advice and self-published Endless Evil in February of 2014. She immediately began the follow-up novel, White River, and published it that same year in August.
Since then she’s released two other books in The Pruitt County Mysteries and her first standalone novel, The Ideal Woman, was released in August of 2017.
Amanda grew up in Georgia and is currently in the process of renovating her childhood home with plans to live there. She’s had a menagerie of pets, and currently resides with two rambunctious tomcats who have no problem distracting Amanda from her writing for a cuddle session or playtime. Kimbrel was named after the former Atlanta Braves closing pitcher. She planned to name her second kitty Bosher after the Atlanta Falcons punter, but the name his foster mom gave him, Lupin, stuck.

Brilliant story!
This story is brilliantly written with lots of twists and suspense. There is always something happening that you won't expect! The story is fast-paced and it kept me on the edge of my seat. I've grown to love the characters and I can't wait for the next book in the series to see what happens to them next.
