This is the fourth book in the Gwen Marcey series. The first three are A Cry from the Dust, The Bones Will Speak and When Death Draws Near.
In this book, we’re catching up with Gwen, who is on another
case. This one involves the abduction of
a young girl and the murder of her parents.
The details of the case open up Gwen’s past that she’s had locked away
for years. Once she starts digging
around, it becomes clear that the murderer has her in his sights.
I don’t want to get too in depth about the plot, since I
don’t want to give anything away.
There’s a lot going on in this one, and sometimes it was a bit
overwhelming. There were also a few
times in there I felt dragged on a bit, but overall, I liked this story. Specifically, I loved that Gwen’s eximious
sidekick gets to join her on the case. I
always love when Beth’s character shows up, and she’s in this one a lot, so I
was happy about that.
As with the other books, you can read these out of order and
not be lost. I was happy the Gwen Marcey
series didn’t end after three books, and even though I didn’t like this one
quite as much as the others, I didn’t have any issues getting through it. I hope to read more in the future. Good Book!

NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
