This is a page turner that keeps you guessing. The characters are likeable and equally dislikeable (in a satisfactory way). The man characters Olivia and Will both have a past that haunt them, and every twist and turn is unexpected. A true thriller. Thank you Netgalley for this ARC!

Loved!! Everything about this book was spot on - the character development, the flow of the dialogue and storyline. I was pulled in from the beginning and it didn't let up once!

Can't wait for book 2. This is most definitely a series/author I will continue to read.

Thank you #netgalley and #bookouture for the eARC.

A good thriller to spend a couple of hours with. Deck is a former SF police officer now stationed in Fog Harbor where a serial killer seems to be on the loose. All evidence starts pointing to Drake Devere, a convicted killer who published a book about a man in jail who continued to kill.
Psychologist Olivia Riley works at the jail and gets caught up in the case as well...meanwhile battling her feelings for Deck and trying to keep her jailed father with connections to a gang a secret.
This book has many plotlines, intrigue and secrets..many people with double agenda's and it kept my interest to what, exactly, was happening in that jail.
The push and pull between Deck and Olivia was getting on my nerves about halfway into the book....either do it or stop talking/thinking about is so much. But that's my only real issue...I enjoyed the read and will be on the look out for the second book in this series.

Summary
Fear hits her like a wave crashing against the sheer cliffs nearby. She sees the woman’s feet first, then the legs bent like broken driftwood. Then, the blouse strewn open; the marks on her beautiful neck. Her knees buckle as a hand grabs her elbow to break her fall.

Forced home to Fog Harbor, California, to look after her little sister, Criminal Psychologist Olivia Rockwell is struggling to adjust to life in a town so small she can hardly breathe. Until, at church one morning, the sound of a scream leads her to the body of a missing local teacher in the shallows nearby. All the evidence points to Olivia’s most threatening patient, Drake, who is safely locked up behind bars…

I am a big fan of her books, I especially love the doctors of darkness series, that grab you by the heart, grab you by the throat and shake up all your cells. This book is part of a new series, a little softer than the other one, two main characters with secrets that you care and root for. Interesting story set in a prison, it is less psychological than the previous series but it is still good. If you like this, really go back and read her other books

Gripping psychological thriller with a compelling twist!

Bodies start piling up in Fog Harbor California and are somehow tied to the local prison, but how? The prison’s chief psychologist, Olivia Rockwell, is stunned by the murders and has agreed to assist the police trying to profile the killer. The new detective in town, Will “Deck” Decker has his sights set on one culprit, but is it really that easy? Together they make a formidable team yet the attraction to one another may make it easy to ignore protocol.

This book is a roller coaster ride with twists and turns that the reader will not see coming. I loved the way Ellery Kane slowly developed the characters through memories and even online articles. You get the true sense of the main characters in this story and cannot help but like them!

The writing is fluent, it never gets bogged down or dull. There are moments of humor that will have you laughing out loud and there are moments of tension that are riveting. This is a book that you will read through the night just to see who the guilty party is.

Well done! Cannot wait for the next installment!

Excellent book! I loved the characters, all very unique but delightful. The only thing I hated , was that it ended. I need more of them!

I read this book in one entire day!! I loved it! So much that I'm now reading another book by the author on kindle unlimited. It took me most of the book until I figured out who the killer was, and it was only one small clue that made me realize it otherwise I wouldnt have known until the big reveal! I loved how long this book was and that it took its time and didnt rush it. I can't wait for book 2 but I'm going to be mad if it takes numerous books for these two to get together!!

Ellery has done it again! PERFECTION! Be prepared to skirt your responsibilities because you won’t want to put this book down. The characters draw you in, they are developed so well, and the story keeps you guessing until the end. I cannot wait for the next installment!

Returning to Fog Harbor was never part of criminal psychologist Olivia Rockwell’s plan, but she does anyway to care for her sister. When a local teacher is murdered, one of Olivia’s patients is the prime suspect and is put behind bars. No fan of the prison system, Olivia works to free her patient, whom she believes is innocent. When another woman is killed, Olivia had to put aside her personal feelings to work with detective Will Decker to find the real killer. Tense and addictive

Breathtakingly good.
Thursday, December 12
Bonnie McMillan, 32, a wife, a mother was enjoying a film by herself at Fog Harbor , California. She went missing in mysterious circumstances. No clue where she would have been. She was last seen in a security camera footage at Fog Harbor , California around 2:30 am and her Toyota was found abandoned with a flat tire on Pine Grove Road. Where is she gone? Did something happen to ber?
The truth is even worse.
Criminal psychologist Olivia Rockwell went to church on a normal morning when she suddenly heard a scream and ran in the direction which led to Earl River.
She found a body and all the signs are screaming at her that that was the work of Drake, her most threatening patient who's currently behind the bars but the feeling is irresistible because all the clues are pointing in his direction.
Detective Will Decker is called on the crime scene and he should have to work with Olivia to catch the culprit.
And then second body is found. Still all the clues are pointing at Drake.
Is this killer a copycat or what?
And then a chilling note around a body is found in which the killer indicated that his next victim will be Olivia's sister.
Will and Olivia together be able to catch the killer before he strikes again? Or Olivia has to lose her sister?
Read this breathtakingly good thriller to know more about the story.
I loved Will, Olivia, Bonnie ( her character has a huge impact on the overall plot ), James. Other characters are good but I'm not mentioning them here because it will become a spoiler review then.
Narration of the story is captivating. I finished it in nine hours. And I was blown when I finished it.
I've already sent its Google Play link to all my fellow Authors Bloggers Followers Friends and Family so that they can pre order it. I'm doing more promotion on its releasing day.
Thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for giving me an advance copy of this crime thriller.
