Publisher's summary

A Wall Street Journal bestselling series.

Clues to a hidden treasure. Clues to a family secret. Both lead to murder in a twisting novel of suspense by Amazon Charts and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Kendra Elliot.

A national treasure hunt with a $2 million prize has driven obsessed fortune seekers to overrun the small town of Eagle’s Nest, Oregon. The hunt’s cryptic clues and the lure of wealth have exposed the desperate side of human greed: theft, fights, trespassing—and even the motive to kill. Police chief Truman Daly craves peace in his town but has a murder on his hands instead. Now the big prize isn’t the only thing hiding in the pines. So is a killer.

When a young boy walks into the local café and claims his mother and baby sister have been missing for weeks, FBI special agent Mercy Kilpatrick investigates and exposes a disturbing twist in his story. Deep family secrets and lies that started sixty years ago have burst into the present, bringing with them deadly consequences.

Mercy’s and Truman’s investigations lead down a path of murder, revenge, and buried secrets to uncover two intertwined mysteries as dark as an Oregon forest.

I Love these books!

The mysteries written by Kendra Elliott and Melinda Leigh are so fun to read. I love the characters they develop. Mercy is definitely one of my favorites. It makes me feel the need to experience the part of Oregon described by Ms. Elliott.

Love this Series

I love the Mercy Kilpatrick and Truman Daly. Previous series and books spring this couple together as we learn of their history. Now as a couple they investigate crime on two fronts. Mercy is an FBI agent so she’s called in on her missing woman and child case this case opens up I can full of worms as it has been said. Long lost people reemerge broken family ties I’d be united is an excellent book. Once again Kendra Elliott out does herself! The narrator did a great job as always!

I love Kendra Elliot’s books but this one is so good from beginning to end. Great plot and characters both. The narrative was very engaging and sucked you right into the story.
