About the Book:
She wakes to the sound of footsteps outside her secluded home. Moving toward the window, she scans the dark woods around her and freezes. A tall figure in a long dark coat holds a crossbow pointed right at her. She blinks as lightning cracks overhead. But when she opens her eyes, the figure has vanished…
When the body of a man is found in the dense forest surrounding Black Rock Falls, Sheriff Jenna Alton immediately sees disturbing similarities with a past case—the same murder weapon, the remote beauty spot, and the way the victim is perched against a tree with no sign of a struggle. But the killer in that case was jailed for life.
Jenna suspects a copycat killer and her fears are confirmed when, during the town’s Halloween festival, the bodies of two tourists are found further down the remote trail. They too had been hunted down and murdered in another picturesque spot and all Jenna can hope is that the man behind bars can help her catch the twisted monster behind these new deaths.
As she comes face to face with the vicious murderer who has haunted her dreams for years, she is sure he knows more than he’s telling her. Looking deep into Jenna’s eyes, as if they’re two old friends catching up, he promises to take his final revenge on her for locking him up. But before she can learn more, he is dragged away by prison guards.
When a sudden emergency call takes Jenna and her deputy David Kane deep into the woods, Jenna senses something is very wrong about the situation. As a strange calmness falls over the forest, a familiar face emerges from the shadows. Will this killer be the one who finally takes down Sheriff Alton, and can they make it out of the forest alive?

My Thoughts
Started off with a thrilling first chapter that had me gripped from first sentence. So thrilling and so much anticipation of what is to come.
The excitement of the first few chapters really drives the book for intensity as well as really showing the characters in a great light.
The setting of Black Rock Falls is still one of my favourites. It is a beautiful place but they seem to be cursed. So many crimes and murders just makes it feel a little unpalatable to stay for long.
The characters are still amazing amd honestly some of them are becoming top choices for my favourite characters.
Kane is still a top character and the way he reacts is typical. You see how much he trusts Jenna and how much he cares for him.
Jenna this time is more dealing with weakness. Weakness isn’t really a great word for it but she was more vulnerable than I remember her being.
Shane again is great and seeing his relationships with his friends and his children shows a lot about him.
The story is great and you get to learn more about Kane which is great. Has a lot of suspense filled moments which makes the read even more sweet.
I feel that the best is yet to come in this series as it just keeps getting better the more you see of these characters. Truly impressed and just want so many more books about these characters.
