Mercy Callahan thought she'd escaped the cult decades ago, but its long fingers are reaching out for her again in this electrifying novel in the Sacramento series by Karen Rose.
Seventeen years ago. That was the last time Mercy Callahan saw Ephraim Burton, the leader of the twisted Eden cult where she was raised. But even though she escaped the abuse and terror, they continue to haunt her.
When her brother Gideon discovers new evidence of the cult's--and their victims'--whereabouts, Mercy goes to Sacramento to reconnect with him. There, she meets Gideon's closest friend--homicide detective Rafe Sokolov. From Rafe, she receives an offer she never knew she needed: to track down Ephraim and make him pay for everything.
But Ephraim, who had thought Mercy long dead, discovers she is in fact alive and that she is digging around for the cult's secrets. And now he'll do anything to take her back to Eden--dead or alive.
The queen of gripping suspense is at it again with book two in her Sacramento series! Karen Rose always brings the diabolical villains that we just can’t get enough of as we follow her main characters towards a happily ever after. If you read the first book in the series, you will recognize Mercy and Rafe and will be happy to reconnect with Gideon and Daisy a lot in this follow up story. This was a long book, but it didn’t lose my attention for a second and I’m so looking forward to more in the series!
Mercy Callahan is an attention grabbing character. We have the back story of her escaping the cult and trying to pick up the pieces of how to move forward, but we also have the budding romantic tension between her and Rafe that she ran away from in the first book.
Rafe Sokolov is awesome! He’s been Gideon’s best friend for years and took him into the center of his loving and overly intrusive family to belong to them. He can’t hide his happiness that Mercy has come back to town.
Headlines from the serial killer case weeks ago has Mercy front and center in the news and brings her haunting past back to life when the man her nightmares are made of finds her.
I highly recommend this book and this entire series to anyone who loves a thriller filled with tension and terror but also enjoys a couple surviving the odds and walking off into the sunset together. Looking forward to another reign of terror!
