My thoughts

Rating: 4

Series:Detective Clara Jefferies #3

Would I recommend it? Yes 

Would I read more of this series? Yes

Would I read more of this author? Yes

First off I  want to say a  huge  thank you to the publisher Bookouture,  the author  Kathryn Casey  , and to NetGalley for inviting me to join the blog tour for this book as well as letting me read and review it. While this is the first time I've read anything by this author its also the first thriller series that I've ever read that has polygamists in it, and that's one of the things I loved about this book was how the author gives  insight into a different and very real culture that I know nothing about . Another thing I loved was how no matter what happened between the main character and her family she still wanted to be there for them and to help in any away she could . As for the story itself  it flowed together and I had no trouble getting lost in it at well and I loved the into acting between the characters themselves so much so that I can't wait to read more of this series. 



Book Description:


She could hear nothing but the sound of her own heartbeat. It was dark and the rough ground scraped against her as she tried to move. Being alone was strange to her—she was so used to her big family, to the noise, the warmth, but the last thing she wanted was for the woman to return…


When Detective Clara Jefferies returned home to Alber, Utah, she knew it would take a long time to convince the closed community to trust her. So she is surprised to be called to private land up in the mountains, until she hears that the bones of a young girl have been found. And hidden in the dark depths of the grave are the remains of a baby too

Digging into the town’s missing persons files, Clara is shocked to discover that pregnant girls have been going missing for years. And when she spots Ash Crawford, the first cop on the scene, praying over the bodies, she begins to suspect that he knows more about the victim than he’s letting on.

With Crawford staying silent, and the identity of the girl still unknown, Clara’s only choice is to visit every family living on the mountaintop, desperate to find what they might be hiding. But doing so means facing the man she was once bound to, and the tall iron gates of the ranch she ran away from all those years ago.

Then another pregnant girl is reported missing, and Clara ramps up her search, racing to find her alive. But can she uncover the town’s dark secrets in time to save both the girl and her unborn child?


A heart-pounding crime thriller that twists and turns like a rollercoaster, leaving you on the edge of your seat. Readers of Lisa Regan, Linda Castillo and Kendra Elliot will be completely addicted.
