Moving home to Carrington, NC, oncology nurse Leigh Weston hopes to recuperate from a harrowing experience with a psychotic patient. But her fragile peace is shattered when someone tampers with her brakes, and her friend and dive team investigator Ryan Parker finds a body in a lake. The crime has all the hallmarks of a serial killer on the loose, and Leigh initially believes that her former patient is stalking her. Unfortunately she may not be off the mark. Before Leigh and Ryan become the killer's next victims, they must solve the case quickly. Launching a new series of romantic suspense, Carol Award winner Blackburn (Covert Justice; Hidden Legacy) keeps the tension high, building a palpable sense of fear in the protagonists as their investigation comes closer to identifying the killer. VERDICT Fans of Dani Pettrey's "Alaskan Courage" thrillers will enjoy this nail-biter of a series opener, which will also be appreciated by romantic and psychological suspense fans. © Copyright 2018.
