After a search of the crime scene the remains of a local woman who vanished decades ago is also found.....who is this madman and what propels him to kill....

Melinda Woodhall’s books are so addictive I cannot resist getting them. Melinda stories never disappoint and this latest proves once again that she is at the top of the game. She knows how to weave an intense, disturbing and scary story to keep us captivated till the very end. Of course at the forefront is a well plan murder investigation: the hunt for a mad man that was so obsessed by a woman rejection that he killed her or was his action simple revenge...or a cartel payback. What did she do?..... Of course it is for the reader to discover.

Ms. Woodhall keeps focus on her protagonist as she works her case. The action is steady and the pacing is smooth not at all bog down with too unnecessary details. The narrative and dialogue are energetic, keeping a good tempo all though. I also appreciate how the author never forgets to add a few surprises along the way, some twists to derail us and a few new characters to get to know.

Although this latest is part of a series it can be read by its own

I zipped through this book in no time it was that enjoyable.

I received an advance copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntary
