Publisher's Summary

The past isn't over....

An unspeakable act has ripped apart the idyllic town of Bakersville, Oregon, and its once-peaceful residents are demanding quick justice. But though a boy has confessed to the horrific crime, evidence shows he may not be guilty.

Officer Rainie Conner, leading her first homicide investigation, stands at the center of the controversy. It's hitting too close to home, bringing back her worst nightmares, threatening to expose her secret sins. But with the boy's life at stake, she won't let anything stop her from finding the real killer.

With the help of FBI profiler Pierce Quincy, Rainie comes closer to a deadly truth than she can imagine. Because out there in the shadows a man watches her and plots his next move. He knows her secrets. He kills for sport. He's already brought death to Bakersville and forever shattered the community. But what he has really come for is Rainie - and he won't leave until he has destroyed her....

So good!

I couldn’t stop listening. The characters were complex and the story kept you guessing. I’m a huge fan of Gardner

Great until the end…

I couldn’t stop listening to this book. The narrator was fabulous and I really liked all the main characters. However, I was really disappointed in the ending. It was really anticlimactic and unrealistic so I only gave the book 4/5 stars.

This book was sent twice to me

Audible offers old books as new without warning and doesn't fix this bug. Hense the rating despite the story and performance are good. I will change the rating after Audible fixes the bug.
