Wow

Intense thriller! This one kept me up into the wee hours and I had to keep reading, I mean really the housework, errands, sleeping and stuff can all wait. This was an excellent read

This book was really good! I'll definitely be checking out other books in the series! I could imagine what Caitlin and her father went through because of the Prophet, and it was neat to try and put the pieces and clues together while Caitlin did. I got really into it and read every chance I it. I could imagine some scenes so clearly that they almost had me crying or had me sick to y stomach when I imagined the pain Caitlin, Mack, and others went through or the awful crime scenes. Some twists in it really surprised me, and I like that in a thriller. For example, I won't go into details, but I didn't expect the book to end the way it did. This book was very well-written and kept me interested from start to finish! I can't wait to read the next one!

On a whim, I bought this on sale. I figured at the cost of a latte, I could get 300+ pages of entertainment and if it sucked, not a big deal. As a fan of thrillers, mysteries, crime fiction, and police procedurals, how is it that I never heard of this novel nor author before?! Seriously, the recommendations algorithm needs to be tweaked. Anyhow... not sure why the tactical team didn't bring NVGs... but then again why be prepared when hunting a serial killer? This was a fast-paced story. The internal dialogue when dropped in a fearful situation for the heroine was intense and nail-biting. I stayed up way too late to finish this book. Looking forward to the next book in the series
