“Please, help,” she whispered.

Special Agent Nikki Hunt is called to a scene of a murder at a farmhouse near the woods. Inside are four victims. One is clinging to life. The others are dead. A man and woman have been stabbed, while their son, Bryce fights for his life. A young woman has been bound and thrown over the landing. Nikki has seen a lot in her time, but this crime scene throws her a little. She is still raw and dealing from PTSD from almost being drowned in another book.

Soon, this case takes on a life of its own, and there are those with dark, devious, and sinister secrets.

This was another enticing and gripping installment in the Nikki Hunt series. Although we do learn of some struggles Nikki is facing in her personal life, the emphasis is more on the investigation in this book and less on Nikki’s private life. I’m hoping to see a little more of her work/life balance in the next book!

Stacy Green never disappoints, and I am already looking forward to the next book in the series!!! This series is still in the beginning phases, so it is an easy one to jump into. I suggest starting at the beginning, you will not be disappointed!

Thank you to Bookouture and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own.
