Description

The #1 New York Times-bestselling author presents a novel about an injured cop who must fight to bring down a pair of twisted killers…

Natural Resources police officer, Sloan Cooper, and her partner had just taken down three men preying on hikers in the Western Maryland mountains. Driving back, she pulled in at a convenience store—and walked right into a robbery in progress. One gunshot from a jittery thief was about to change her world.

After being shocked back to life on the operating table, she has a long recovery ahead, so she moves back to her parents’ peaceful house in Heron’s Rest. As for the boyfriend who dumped her via text while she was in the hospital, good riddance.

She may be down, but she’s not out. So when a woman vanishes, leaving her car behind in a supermarket parking lot, Sloan searches online for similar cases. She finds them, spread across three states. Men and women, old and young—the missing seem to have nothing in common. And the abductions keep happening.

Luckily, the new man in her life shares her passion for solving this mystery. But it will take every ounce of endurance to get to the dark heart of this bizarre case—and she's willing to risk her life again if that's what it takes to stop the horror.

    it's fine...not great, not good, just a completely recycled story that got axed from her other series and just moved the parts around to make her deadline. This kind of formalistic cut and paste writing is getting tired and she should give money back to everyone that paid full price cause it was a $7.99 book.

    I’ve been reading Nora’s books for about 30 years and this is not her best book. Not only are the main characters, not as relatable as I have come to expect, but the plot suspense was ruined within the first few chapters; you could tell essentially what was coming. I’m not sure why there is such a difference between this book and others that have been so fun to read, but I feel like I just read a book that was not really written by Nora Roberts. I’m hoping the next one is better.

    Great read. Finished in three days, oh well, laundry can always wait, right?

    Wow, this one really got the adrenaline pumping. The characters are so well done and interesting. The story is so good, the dialogue is great, Nora Robert’s shines telling stories. The lead up to the ending could have been cliche, but instead is just as it should be when the lead character has been so well written, the mystery unfolded perfectly and resolved as it should, full circle. Really enjoyed and recommend.
