Guilt is a powerful thing, and former deputy Jack Collins is mired in it. Unable to forget the events that have taken place in the town he was sworn to protect, he feels as if he is slowly drowning as he tries to cope with the aftermath of a serial killer’s reign of terror, as well as his new—and unwanted—job as chief of police.
When the body of a young woman, having the same puncture wounds as the serial killer’s previous victims, is discovered, Jack must determine if this is a copycat crime or the work of a possible accomplice—either of which—could put the killer’s only surviving victim, Katie Winstead, in grave danger.
As Jack delves deeper into the murder, his vow to keep Katie safe, combined with the secret he’s been harboring, begins to take its toll. His sudden inability to confide in his wife, Cheryl, causes their home, which was once a haven for him, to become just another source of tension.
An overzealous news team, a threat from his not so distant past, and a mayor who wants the murder swept under the rug, only add to the pressure surrounding him as Jack struggles to do what’s right on all levels in this riveting, stand-alone sequel to The Monster of Silver Creek.

~My review~
At first, I was wondering what the tragedy was and then, as I was thrown deeper into the story I realized what was happening. Is there a serial killer still lingering in the small town? What is the reporters angle? Is he just trying to get a good story or is he trying to make the story happen the way he wants it to? I don't want to spoil the story for other readers, so I'll leave you with those unanswered questions.
There are so many side plots in this story. Belinda Buchanan did a fantastic job pulling it all together. Her character descriptions were spot on; I was able to not only picture the faces of the people but I could feel the emotions that they were going through during the story. Love, anger, despair, jealousy, self-loathing; so many emotions...
If your looking for a gripping story that won't disappoint, I would definitely recommend this book. It will keep you wondering all the way to the end!
