Publisher's summary

This audiobook does not end with a cliff-hanger.

Jack Gard and Catlyn Lyte's budding romance begins in high school. Although Jack cares for Catlyn, he refuses to get into a relationship with Catlyn because of her age. Then Catlyn is assaulted, and her world is torn apart when Jack sides with his best friend, giving him an alibi. Devastated, Catlyn flees Newburgh, NY.

Twenty-five years later, someone is assaulting and killing young, African American women in Chief of Detectives Jack Gard's hometown. Working against an escalating killer, Jack requests help from a special division of the FBI. Enter Supervisory Special Agent Catlyn Lyte. She has always done her job well but is wary of working with someone she doesn't trust. Nevertheless, Sparks fly between the two officials as Catlyn puts herself in the path of their quarry.

Can two ex-friends try to bury their differences to solve, not only the mystery of the Newburgh Slasher, but also the mystery that ruined their budding romance 25 years ago?

This book was awful

I was greatly offended by this book and how the author portrayed black women. The rape of the teenage girl was gruesome I had to skip over that part. The part of this book that put a bad taste in my mouth was 25 years of no contact and she just let this man fuck her while they both was on the job and in the police station. I will admit that I did stop reading the book because I was so disgusted with the characters and the author. I would not recommend this book for anyone to read. I also will never read anything by this author. I also will be returning this book to get my money back.

Pretty Cheesy

To say these people are in their late 30's and early 40's they were a bit immature. I understand what happened to the main character but come on with the teeny bopper act 🙄. Not to add but, who hates someone for 25yrs but as soon as u see them u immediately fall back in love smh 🤦‍♀️. Story was ok, not really impressed 🤷‍♀️

Don’t waste ur money

Don’t like the speakers voice. Some of the things sound childish. Should not be in a adult book.
