This is the ninth book in the series featuring Detective Casey White. Casey and her partner Jericho find themselves trying to solve a heartbreaking case. Two young children are found adrift in a small boat. They are traumatised and tell Casey that they had witnessed their parents being murdered on their boat. When Casey and Jericho finally locate the boat they find the two bodies. On identifying them Casey is shocked to learn that their mum is a detective with the NYPD and has been involved in the hunt for a serial killer who leaves the victims dressed as dolls. Are their killings connected to this case? When a body turns up at Outer Banks with all the hallmarks of this serial killer Casey realises that he has moved to her patch. The race is then on to find him before he strikes again and to ensure that the two traumatised children are safe. This was a gripping read with the tension building as the killer is revealed. An enjoyable read.
Thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book,

Detective Casey White discovers two small children on an adrift boat on the ocean. They say little except that their parents have been killed. Soon after, Casey locates the parents' boat and two dead bodies. The mother was a cop and was fleeing to save her family from her latest serial killer case...
Two Little Souls is the 9th detective and crime thriller book to feature Casey White, her team and family.
This case is hugely emotive due to the involvement of two small children. They witnessed their parents' murders and were then almost killed themselves as they floated on a dangerous sea. Casey is also deeply affected by the case as it is a fellow detective who has been targeted. The forensic information is quite unpleasantly detailed and the characters also have a revulsion at what they experience.
Most of the book is written from Casey's first person viewpoint but there are some chapters which show the victim and killer interacting. This increases the tension as we anticipate another murder. I had no idea on the identity of the killer and was anxiously waiting for Casey to piece together the clues and catch them. The writing is fast paced, with short chapters so you are tempted to read just one (or two!) more at each sitting!
On a personal level, Casey made a big decision in the last book and the team seem ready to split and move according to their hearts. But this is not without doubts and soul searching, especially as the team is so strong together.
Two Little Souls is a tense detective thriller.

Holy cow that was a good ending. As usual, the characters are great. I thought the story was captivating and engaging. That ending though, such a great twist. Definitely one that makes you close the book and need a minute to go WOW.

This book is number 9 in the series. It was full of action and I couldnt stop reading it. Even though I had guessed the perpertrator, it didnt take the shine off the book at all.

Just as it was beginning to look as though this series was coming to a close, along comes a case that may just be the best story yet. This is a real page-turner that had me reading long into the night. I would recommend that anyone new to this series begins at book one because there are a lot of spoilers in each subsequent story.
Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC of this book

Wow what an incredibly tense and gripping read this was! One of my favourite thrillers of this year! I love this author and this book was just wow! Please read this one - I guarantee you will love it!

Two Little Souls picks up right where the cliffhanger in The Resting Place left off.

Casey and Jericho have found two young children abandoned on a yacht with the bodies of their parents on board. The children are terrified, but unharmed, and Casey realizes that their mother was a police officer in New York on the hunt for a serial killer. Not only that, a body matching that case has been found in the Outer Banks, sending Casey and Jericho on the hunt for a single killer, all while worrying about the mental health of the two young children.

Once again, Spangler has crafted a page turning mystery, leaving the reader wondering if Casey can unravel the killer's mysteries before losing more victims to him. The costumed bodies add an extra creepy element to this mystery (in a good way of course, I love a semi-scary mystery) and once again, the story leaves off knowing there is going to be more to Casey and Jericho's story. I can't wait for the next one.

Ufffff what a ride!!!! Two Little Souls has it all! Heartbreak, murder, intrigue… but was there the happy ending of catching the killer?!?

Two Little Souls kicks off where Their Resting Place left off, Casey and Jericho finding two siblings in a dinghy after their parents have been killed. What ensues is a race against time to find the killer before he finishes what he’s started. This New York killer has debunked to the Outer Banks and is playing his twisted game again.

I may have only read three of the nine in this series but I’m really enjoying these trips to the Outer Banks. I’m really looking forward to book 10 to see how the changes in the personal lives of these characters pan out!

Spangler has crafted a very tense crime thriller in Two Little Souls. My heart was pumping as the story reached its climax. The investigation really packed a punch but the final killer blow was one helluva punch.

This is another action-packed thriller which starts off with Casey and Jericho finding two small children floating on a raft - only to learn that they witnessed their parents' murder. The story follows not only the investigation into who killed the couple (and why), but also the happenings in Casey's personal life.

Casey learns that the mother is a detective from NYC who along with her partner was investigating a serial killer. Then a dead body turns up in the Outer Banks leading them to believe that the serial killer is there. There are some surprising twists along the way, both with the case and in Casey's personal life.

When you are part of a blog tour you know that you are requested to post your review on certain date. This means having read the book and have the blog post ready.
Life happens and sometimes even the best scheduling can fail so yesterday I was at the beggin the novel and wrote asking to postpone my post as I didn’t know If I was going to be ready.
I erred on the side of caution because this novel is high on one-more-chapter-factor and sleep-deprivation-cause, and this means that I ended tonight.
It’s not the best novel to read at night time as it’s a tense and gripping story featuring a terrifying killer and some very moving moments.
It’s fast paced and there’s plenty of surprising twists. The last one was really big and I didn’t see it coming.
I was glad to catch up with Casey, Jericho and the cast of characters. I liked how they related to the traumatized children and how they flighted to catch the killer.
Another excellent story that I strongly recommend. I can’t wait to read the next one as there’s a sort of cliff hanger and I’m very curious about the future novels.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to Bookouture for this ARC, all opinions are mine

Detective Casey White’s newest case touches her deeply. Two children were saved after being found on a small raft, and it soon becomes tragically clear that they lost their parents. Even more, Casey is fairly certain that they likely witnessed their parents death. Murdered, in fact. The children are of tender ages, just three and six. Casey is determined to discover who killed their parents.

When a yacht is discovered with the bodies of a man and woman, Casey knows she has found the children’s parents. With a clue as to their identities, Casey leaves no stone unturned to find the killer. Shockingly. Another body is soon discovered on the beach near where the murdered couple was found, and Casey finds herself in a race against time before yet another murder takes place.

While Casey and her partner Jericho are searching for the killer, this intriguing book also shows how their personal lives are changing. Casey had a very personal loss many years ago, and that story had an amazing result for Casey, thus prompting their decision to move away from the Outer Banks. With this personal edge and shocking twists, this latest book in a fantastic series was definitely a great read.

Many thanks to Bookouture and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.

Seriously ... B.R. Spangler's Casey White series just keeps getting better and better. Another one I couldn't put down until I read the very last word. Well done! I can't wait to see what's next for Casey. If you haven't read this series yet - I've said it before, and I'll say it every time - you are missing out!

Thank you #netgalley and #bookouture for the eARC.

I have slipped into the abyss of this thriller for the day and finally came up for air after closing the final page. This will ensnare you from the first few gritty and tragic pages and have you in its grip until the end. Detective Casey White and company are called to the scene where a small raft has been found drifting in the water on the Outer Banks with two young children huddled together - Tabitha and Tommy Roth - ages 3 and 6. They are scared and in poor health, but even more disturbing is when Tommy tells them that he saw someone kill his mommy and daddy. The Marine Patrol unit finds the yacht drifting as well with a grisly scene on board where they find the bodies of Sara Roth and her husband inside the yacht dead from a gunshot wound. After their search of yacht, Casey realizes that Sara is a cop. When she contacts Sara's boss, she finds out that Sara has been hot on the trail of a deranged killer who kills young teen girls and poses them like dolls. Can you say freak show? The fear that this crazed killer is now loose in the Outer Banks is soon realized when they find their first body posed, dressed in vintage clothing with perfect makeup and hair, and even more disturbing she has been thoroughly cleansed down to a manicure and shaving her legs.

This one gave me the creeps but I still could not get enough of it. I started reading it at night, but I had to put it away and read it during the daylight hours. This was one disturbed individual. I love the character of Casey White. She is tenacious as a bulldog with a bone, smart and tough, but she also has a soft heart for children. Jericho will steal your heart as well. This dream team of cops, forensic technicians and specialists will get the job done. This was a spine chilling, terrifying police procedural mystery/thriller which read like an episode of Criminal Minds. I was still guessing until the very end of the book. Spangler knows how to hook you in and not let go. The characters are three dimensional and almost alive. I feel as if I know them personally. If you do not mind the eerie storytelling and enjoy a good mystery, you will enjoy this book. This is a great series. I highly recommend this book and this series.

Thank you to Bookouture and NetGalley for this ARC. I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Two Little Souls is another great installment in the Detective Casey White series. Author B.R. Spangler gives us a heart wrenching story about two young children found adrift in the ocean. They say their mommy and daddy were killed.
Can Casey and her team catch the killer before he strikes again?
I have to say the ending was what I was hoping for. Can’t say much more then that without giving too much away. You need to read the book to find out what I mean :)
Looking forward to reading the next book in the series!
Many thanks to NetGalley, Bookouture and the author for the opportunity to read this book for my honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.

Casey and Jericho are nearly packed up for their move away from Outer Banks when they decide to take a short boat trip to have a final picnic. They find a dingy drifting and inside are two young children who tell them they saw their parents killed on their boat. The boat originated from New York. It is discovered that the mother was a police detective trying to hide due to an open case. What follows is a very strange case that leads to kidnappings and murder in Outer Banks connected to the New York case. A surprise twist of an ending.

Wow, what a book!! I swear this series just gets better and better. You can read this book as a standalone but it is better to read them in order :) Because, why would you deprive yourself of a chance to get to know Casey White and her colleagues and friends?

When Casey and her fiance Jericho come across little Tommy and Tabitha, there is something very special about the pair of them that tugs at their heartstrings. However, they don't really have time to think about what that means exactly as they need to swing into action and find out who killed their parents.

As well as that, Casey and Jericho need to pack up their lives, as they will be moving to Philadelphia shortly and there is still some conflict about whether or not this is the correct course of action.

A thrilling read and I just loved the interactions that the two main characters had with these two small children. As well as this, however, there was something kinda creepy about the murderer in this book, in particular.

5 stars from me.

Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture.

Two Little Souls by B.R. Spangler is book 9 in the Detective Casey White series.
I have been following this set since book one and as with the other books in the series this one doesn't disappoint.
A suspenseful, thrilling chilling read that gets right down to it.
This book just draws you in from the first few pages. And keeps you gripped till the end.
Casey is a fantastic character it's been great to follow her along the way.
Spangler certainty knows how to set a scene and draws the reader into this phenomenal story.

"I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own."

Thank You NetGalley and Bookouture for your generosity and gifting me a copy of this amazing eARC!

Once again Spangler draws the reader in from the first page of the latest installment of the Detective Casey White series. Two Little Souls refers to the the two young children that Casey and Jericho rescue from the ocean, who witnessed the murder of their parents. Casey has a serial killer to deal with in this fast-paced police procedural. And while Spangler is outstanding in his detailed settings and descriptive tales of action, he is also an expert at building characters that the reader cares about. I can’t wait to see what is in store for Casey and Jericho, as well as Tracy and Nichelle.

While this is the ninth in the series, a new reader will quickly understand Casey’s backstory. I would recommend that new readers go back to the beginning of the series just for the enjoyment of seeing all of the nuances develop and lead to yet another action-filled chapter in Casey’s life. Those readers who enjoy a good, sometimes gory detective series will certainly enjoy this series. It’s a well written, well paced series.

Thanks to the author, NetGalley and Bookouture for the opportunity to read this fantastic digital ARC!

Casey and Jericho are supposed to move to Philly, but they’re still hanging around the Outer Banks.
I don’t think they really want to go, especially after they find two abandoned kids.
It’s a fast paced book with plenty of gruesome discoveries and clues to follow.
I thought one of the characters was a bit strange but hadn’t figured out who the killer was.
I was glad of a major decision that’s made at the end.

Detective Casey White book 9. And it's a cracker.

Two children clutch each other tight, huddled together on a tiny raft and shivering in the ocean wind. Fear fills their matching hazel eyes. Slowly, little Tommy whispers: “We saw them kill Mommy and Daddy.”

Detective Casey White’s heart shatters when she finds Tabitha and Tommy Roth, just three and six years old, drifting alone on a raft off the coast of the Outer Banks. The children witnessed the murder of their own parents before escaping on a life raft. As Casey clutches them tight she promises to fight for justice.

Combing the coastline Casey finds an abandoned yacht, the broken bodies of a man and woman on board. Ransacking the boat for clues, when Casey sees Sara Roth’s police ID badge her blood runs cold. The children’s mother was a detective from another state. But who would want to tear apart this beautiful family.

And then a body is found. Can Casey find out who killed them before they strike again?

This book starts with the same intensity that book 8 finished with. I was hooked from start to finish and really didn't want to put it down. I cannot wait to read the next book in this brilliant series.
