An unsolved crime pits a desperate woman against a relentless killer in New York Times bestselling author Mary Burton’s heart-stopping novel of psychological suspense…
Fourteen years ago, Kaitlin Roe was the lone witness to the abduction of her cousin Gina. She still remembers that lonely Virginia road. She can still see the masked stranger and hear Gina’s screams. And she still suffers the guilt of running away in fear and resents being interrogated as a suspect in the immediate aftermath. Now Kaitlin has only one way to assuage the pain and nightmares—by interviewing everyone associated with the unsolved crime for a podcast that could finally bring closure to a case gone cold.
But when a woman Kaitlin questions is later found stabbed to death, she fears that she’s drawn a killer out of hiding. It’s Detective John Adler’s fear that the murders have only just begun. Now his job is to keep Kaitlin safe.
As a bond between Kaitlin and Adler builds, the past closes in just as fast—and it’s darker than Kaitlin remembers. Soon, her wish will come true. She’s going to find out exactly what happened to Gina. Someone has been dying to tell her.
I received this book for free from the publisher through Netgalley for an honest review. Mary Burton is one of my go to authors and this book didn't disappoint. I always enjoy getting to read a story by her, they are comfort reads for me, and though they may have a somewhat predictable sequence of events I will always look forward to her new books and will buy them the day they come out. I enjoyed the multiple storylines that were occurring through out the story and liked how they all ended up tying in together in the end. I thought the romance was believable between the two main characters, liked that it took a somewhat backseat to the actual solving of the crime, and also thought the podcast angle was interesting. Though I know its a romantic suspense and there has to be some element of romance during the book I always like that this author continues to have an emphasis on them investigating/solving the case instead of just letting that become the background to the romance. I look forward to her next book and will always recommend this author to others
