I voluntarily read an early copy of this book.

A young woman has vanished into thin air.

When much-loved Annabeth Dillon is reported missing during a snow storm in Kearney, Wyoming, Detective Delaney Pace is called in. The search leads to a remote woodland cabin, and Delaney is distraught to find Annabeth’s lifeless body on the bed, dark red ties gripping her tight, long black hair covering her face. Searching the scene, she spots a dark figure at the window and rushes to give chase, but he gets away. Could it have been the killer?

Another victim is about to be taken.

As a local activist, Annabeth had a lot of enemies and she was no stranger to death threats. So why was she alone in an isolated cabin? And when one of Annabeth’s colleagues is found dead in her own home, Delaney fears that the murders are linked. Were the women hiding a secret that someone killed to keep?

A twisted killer is in town and they’re only just getting started.

Days later, Delaney discovers that the murderer left DNA evidence on the body, and she’s shocked to her core when she learns who it belongs to. She knows the killer. As she jumps to action, another call comes in—someone close to her has gone missing. Delaney knows just how dangerous the killer is, but she’s prepared to risk everything, even her own life, to save the life of another innocent victim. Will she find them in time?

Secrets are unraveling as danger lurks around every corner in the third book in the Delaney Pace series by Pamela Fagan Hutchins and I’m really enjoying sinking my teeth into this cast of players! We uncover some secrets as more mount with each passing page as Delaney continues to try to solve the mysteries surrounding her family. The characters are addictive and the suspense is high pitched. I really enjoy the core players of this series and am looking forward to more to come from them. I’m still hoping that sexual tension will pan out into a happily ever after for Delaney and Leo.

I highly recommend this book as well as the entire series to anyone that enjoys a whodunnit with lots of twists and turns along the way as an ongoing cast holds our attention and brings us new cases with each book.
