Synopsis

From New York Times bestselling author Mia Sheridan comes the twisted story of one detective’s pursuit of a serial killer who’s taunting her…and the familiar connection between them that’s haunting her.

When Sienna Walker is nearly fired from the NYPD, the last thing she expects is a second chance in the one place she vowed never to return to. But she can’t afford to turn down the job offer, even if a painful familial past and a broken engagement hardly make Reno, Nevada, home sweet home.

It’s made even less sweet by Sienna’s first case—a serial killer with a curious fixation on her. Along with his victims, the killer leaves perplexing clues and chilling journal entries addressed to Sienna detailing the murders he claims his mother committed. The case continues to get personal when her ex-fiancé is called out by the killer as well. Whoever’s behind the diabolical murders, Sienna can only be sure of one thing…it’s someone close to home.

As the twisted truth forces Sienna to face her complicated feelings, she learns that no matter how far you run from your past, it always catches up to you in the end.

My Review

ღ 🅱🅰🅳 🅼🅾🆃🅷🅴🆁 ღ

Is a full length suspenseful thriller by Mia Sheridan. In this you'll meet Sienna Walker & Gavin Decker.

This hooked me and reeled me in from the get go. And held my attention throughout.

A game of cat and mouse, as dead bodies turn up, staged, holding clues, letters left behind by the killer, hidden messages within his letters as the detectives try and unravel each letter.

A race against time before another body turns up. One step forwards, two steps back, nail biting goodness.

A boy, now a man, a killer, one mothers choice having a domino effect. And even though he was a killer my heart bled for him.

Sienna is a detective with the Reno police department whose back on her home turf, a place she'd thought she'd seen the back of. Now she's on a team that's hunting down a killer. Gavin is Sienna's childhood sweetheart both raised in a trailer park, they hadn't seen each other for eleven years, he's an ex high stakes poker player and now top security for a casino.

It didn't take these two long for their past love to rekindle, I just wish there was a wee bit more, so that I could feel that connection between them, that aspect of the book felt rushed, but I understand that wasn't the focus in this book.

Anything this author writes, I will read and I’m so happy I picked this thrilling suspenseful book up.
