It’s been five years since Detective Amanda Steele’s life was derailed by the tragic death of her young daughter. The small community of Dumfries, Virginia, may have moved on, but Amanda cannot. When the man who killed Lindsey is found murdered, she can’t keep away from the case.

Fighting her sergeant to be allowed to work such a personal investigation, Amanda is in a race to prove that she can uncover the truth. But the more she digs into the past of the man who destroyed her future, the more shocking discoveries she makes. And when Amanda finds the link between a silver bracelet in his possession and the brutal unsolved murder of a young woman five years ago, she realizes she’s caught up in something darker than she ever imagined and suspects that more girls could be in danger.

But as Amanda edges toward the truth, she gets closer to a secret as personal as it is deadly. Amanda has stumbled upon a dangerous killer, and she must face some terrible truths in order to catch this killer - and save his next victim as she couldn’t save her own daughter....

A gripping, addictive thriller full of mystery and suspense. Perfect for fans of Rachel Caine, Lisa Regan and Robert Dugoni.

I'm sorry for Amanda's life 5 years ago...but if I have to keep hearing about this over and over and OVER again, I will scream. I'm already rolling my eyes because the amount of time going back to this tragedy is quite ridiculous...it's almost like "filler." so the author is using the story to make the story longer. It is brought up a ridiculous amount of time. It is sad. yes, Amanda is angry...rightly so, but she comes off unlikable.
I hope this clears up some in book #2 because the current story is good but the author has to stop bringing up her tragedy every other paragraph. Hope it gets better and Amanda can have some healing...it would be terrible to experience this but we don't need to be reminded of it so often. it takes away from the story. JMO

This is my first Carolyn Arnold novel.. it held my interest. Tugged at my heart strings for Amanda but I loved every minute of it!! Looking for another one!

Shocking

I loved the story & narration! The ONLY bad part about this book is her attitude. She has a horrible attitude, but does get better by the end of the book.

Great Story!

Well Written

As a native to Virginia I enjoyed hearing our towns/cities in the story. Which was well written and enjoyable. I was surprised to hear the author depict Dumfries and Manassas in Prince William County as “Small Towns” when the population is over 400,000 people. And the narrator give the characters deep southern accents. Definitely will finish the series!

Loss of a child, robotic narration, immature writing, contrived plot. I finished it, but skipped a couple of hours of unpleasant listening.
