It's been seven years since the Seattle Strangler terrorized the city. His victims were all young, pretty, their lifeless bodies found wrapped in a home-sewn white dress. But there was one who miraculously escaped death, just before the Strangler disappeared.

Lara Church has only hazy memories of her long-ago attack. What she does have is a home in Austin, a job, and a chance at a normal life at last. Then Texas Ranger James Beck arrives on her doorstep with shattering news: The Strangler is back. And this time, he's in Austin.

He's always craved her, even as he killed the others. For so long he's been waiting to unleash the beast within. And this time, he'll prove he holds her life in his hands - right before he ends it forever....

It has been seven years since a young girl has turned up strangled and put in a home sewn white dress. It seems like the Seattle Strangler is following Lara Church (the victim who got away) from Seattle to Austin, what is the reason? Will the Texas Rangers be able to catch him before he tries to kill Lara again? The mystery and suspense will keep you on the edge of your seat in this book. This was a great book to listen to, if you like mystery and suspense as I do this book is for you.

Predictable and unpredictable.The story starts with a horrifying attack,taking the listener through all the clues bringing you to one predictable conclusion,but then turns it all upside down with the unexpected twist towards the end.I’ve heard this narrator before and I have to say,she’s improved.

Laura’s lack of memory seems like both a blessing and a curse. As she gathers up the missing pieces I kept waiting for the danger to come front and center. I was really glad that Beck turned from investigating to paying closer attention on many levels.

Forgotten horror

I liked the story, the narration was sub-par and the sex scenes were unnecessary. Not enough Character development - and the lead character was immature and very unrealistic.

Story Twist.
