Senior Investigator Shana Merchant has spent years running from her past. But she never imagined a murder case would drive her to the most dangerous place of all--home. After leaving the NYPD following her abduction by serial killer Blake Bram, Shana Merchant hoped for a fresh start in the Thousand Islands of Upstate New York. Her former tormentor has other plans. Shana and Bram share more than just a hometown, and he won't let her forget it. When the decades-old skeleton of Shana's estranged uncle is uncovered, Bram issues a challenge: Return home to Vermont and solve the cold case, or the blood he spills next will be on her hands. As Shana interviews members of her family and the community, mining for secrets that could help her solve her uncle's murder, she begins to realize how little she remembers of her childhood. And when Bram grows impatient and kidnaps again, leaving a trail of clues Shana alone can understand, she knows his new victim will only survive if she wins the psychopath's twisted game. In order to solve one mystery, Shana must wade into her murky past to unravel another.

I enjoyed the first in series (Death in the Family, an #LMPBC book) so much that I read this second offering while it was still fresh on my mind. I won‘t give a full review yet as this one connects to the first and don‘t want to spoil anything for my #LMPBC group. But suffice it to say, I enjoyed it, but in a different way from the first one. To be continued...😊

robinb UPDATE: I read this one immediately following its predecessor, and enjoyed both very much.

This one picks up shortly after the first with Shana having undergone therapy to deal with past and recent trauma/psychological issues. She is a few days away from her reinstatement hearing when a child disappears from a field trip to a nearby island. 🔻 (edited) 3y
robinb At the same time the remains of her uncle who had supposedly relocated 20 years before are discovered in her nearby hometown. She pieces together the identity of the psychopath who may be responsible for both crimes as well as her own abduction a year before. 🔻 3y
robinb Twisty and creepy with a good supporting cast and plenty of suspense, I also liked to discover how much Shana had progressed since the previous book. Wonderful heroine, good book. Hope there are more to come. 4/5⭐️ 3y

What I love about this book was that it expanded on Shana‘s past. The reveals really opened her up for me and I understand her and what motivates her better. Though, I did enjoy the first book in this series more. This story is well written and carries with it a bit of a thrill but I felt that the tension was off. The clues to the mystery were spaced out between the family drama that was occurring which had the pacing feeling sluggish to me.
