About this listen

A Wall Street Journal bestselling series.

The mystery of three missing teens and a traumatizing murder unearths decades of buried secrets in a shocking novel of suspense by a Wall Street Journal and Amazon Charts bestselling author.

Twenty years ago, five teenage campers disappeared. Two eventually turned up, bound and left for dead on the Columbia River’s rocky shore. Only Devin Bonner miraculously survived, but with no memories of what happened in the Oregon forest.

After decades, the cold case generates heat for FBI Special Agent Mercy Kilpatrick and her husband, Police Chief Truman Daly. They’re investigating the murder of a true-crime podcaster found at the river’s edge in the same location, and with the exact same manner of death. With the discovery, Devin’s nightmares return. His only real friend is Ollie Smith, Truman’s orphaned ward, whose own search for the truth sucks Ollie into a mystery far greater and more dangerous than anyone imagined.

Following a trail of fresh blood and an escalating series of murders, Mercy and Truman must work fast to unlock whatever traumas are buried in Devin’s memories before the secrets of the past claim another victim.

Loved catching up w Mercy and Truman!

It’s been a while since we’ve heard from Mercy and Truman so this was a treat! The pair are about to celebrate one year of wedded bliss, along with their ‘kids’, Ollie and Kate. Mercy is called in by the sheriff to help with attacks on power substations. Truman is working on a murdered podcaster. Their cases collide and involves a 20yo case of 5 teens…3 went missing, 1 was killed & 1 maimed for life with no recollection of the event. Lots of twists and turns but the dynamic duo solves the case and have a great outcome for Ollie and the survivor.

Great twists and turns. First time listening to a book! Loved it. The 15 word minimum is stupid!

Favorite so far

While I've enjoyed all of the series so far, this is by far my favorite. The characters were real, the story line was unique and original. I thought the male narrator was a little weak, but overall easy to listen to. I did not expect what came at the very ending... the last few minutes really sealed it for me! I strongly recommend this one!

Slow to evolve

The story is okay. Not the best in series but the players are interesting enough.

Decent story…

…but so unrealistic. Intriguing mystery but difficult to suspend that much disbelief. And another twist in the very last chapter is like a fairy tale. The female narrator was good but the male performed like someone trying to act but just couldn’t get past flat and/or stilted intonations and dialogue.
