Review

It’s nice to be reunited with Agent Hunt again.

She already has been through a lot in this series, but time and again she stands back up and does her utmost to bring justice to the victims of vicious crimes.

Crimes seem to follow her and her loved ones around and this time too it’s close to home. That’s why she has to concentrate on another case. As the clues start to fit together, she is forced to get involved, coming face to face to the killer.

Will she be able to keep her cool long enough to try and get some more information from them? Will she manage to help some of the victims?

I really thought I had figured it all out this time. But OMG, will I never learn? LOL. Of course I did not get it right.

Thank god there is Nikki and her team to make all the wrongs right again and to free the world from some serious deranged people.

Another great story in this series.  There is suspense, but also a lot of things that will make your heart bleed. 5 stars.

Thank you, Stacy Green and Bookouture
