Aaron’s life shatters in the aftermath of his best friend’s sudden, bizarre death. He firmly believes her demise was no mere accident, as the authorities ruled, but a cold-blooded murder. Driven to the brink of despair by the relentless media shadowing his every move, accusing him of causing her death, he needs a place to hide. Salvation dawns in an unexpected inheritance — the dense, sprawling wilderness of his great aunt’s East Texas estate. There, he discovers another surprise: his first love recently moved back to the area. She intrigued him at fourteen; she completely captivates him at twenty-six.

The discovery of a woman’s body on his property is chillingly timed on the grim anniversary of his friend’s death, shaking Aaron to his core. He realizes the bloodthirsty killer has delivered a disturbingly personal message to him: You cannot hide from me. Suddenly, his secluded sanctuary is exposed, a beacon for the merciless media relentlessly searching for him. He fortifies his estate, transforming it into a fortress against what he understands now is an inevitable attack. The murderer’s tightening noose of fear threatens to ensnare him. Outsmarting this ruthless predator has become a deadly game of chess, where every move could be his last.

My Review:

Aaron Winslow feels like his life is ruined and happiness will never be something he will enjoy. Trying to run from his grief, pain, and the media, he hides himself on the property that his Great Aunt Dottie has left to him.

I enjoyed the mystery, suspense, and the characters who lived on Dottie’s property and in the nearby town. They were so good to give him the space he needed to heal, but at the same time looked out for him and helped him when he needed it the most. I liked the faith element and the peace that Aaron came to experience. I did feel that the mystery wrapped up very quickly, and I’d like to have had a couple of clues to who was behind the strange goings on at the estate.

I was given a copy of the book through Celebrate Lit. A positive review was not required. All opinions are my own.
