Publisher's summary

In the fourth Widow’s Island novella by Wall Street Journal bestselling author Kendra Elliot, the truth of a twenty-year disappearance will finally come to light.

When the town drunk ends up dead in a hit-and-run, FBI special agent Cate Wilde expects that solving the case will be cut and dried. But evidence quickly surfaces that the victim was involved with another crime. A crime that has gone cold for twenty years. A crime of personal importance to Cate.

Cate’s best friend, Samantha, went missing at fourteen, leaving behind nothing except a jacket and an island full of unanswered questions. Samantha’s disappearance has haunted Cate for more than half her life, and she might finally be able to find some closure.

But not everything is as it seems. As Cate unravels what happened on that fateful day, she’ll discover that the community of Widow’s Island is full of secrets. Betrayed by someone she thought she knew, Cate will need to piece together the truth...before someone else gets hurt.

Everything I hoped for and more

Heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time. I didn't know whether to be angry or to cry and found myself doing both with all the happenings in this series. I am looking forward to the next book and wish it was coming out a lot sooner.

GREAT!!!

I loved it and the narrators have a great easy voice to listen to and the characters are well described and the repeat of information on who the characters are blends in smoothly it isn't annoying..

Whoa. What???

This series has me enthralled. Which is interesting, because I don't really care for novellas. But while the books in this series are only a few hours long (which I'm sure many prefer), the characters and part of the storyline continue through. So, I'm in. From the beginning.

This particular addition to the previous stories put my head in a spin with some things I didn't see coming. Excellent. These characters are also beginning to feel like old friends, which is why I generally prefer longer novels. But the personalities here are rich, complex, and engaging in their own ways.

I'll keep reading as long as Kendra Elliot keeps writing!

Wonderfully done

So interesting and emotional. Love the characters and the plot. The narrator done an excellent job bringing each character to life. There is circumstances around one character that could be a trigger for some. I would recommend this story.

We finally learn what happened to Cate’s friend...

In this episode...the investigation into a hit-and-run leads to clues to what happened to Cate and Tessa’s friend, Samantha, 20yrs ago. You’ll never see it coming! Great ending to this novella series.

Loved the setting!

I thoroughly enjoyed this series, I was hooked from the first book. I was disappointed when I realized I had read the last book in the series.
