About this listen

A Wall Street Journal best seller.

For nearly 30 years a serial killer has been hiding in plain sight. So has the key to an FBI agent’s dark past.

A family is murdered as they sleep. FBI Special Agent Nina Guerrera and her new team are tasked with determining whether there is any link between this attack and another triple homicide from four years earlier and more than 2,000 miles away. In the process, they’ll discover a serial killer so cunning that his grisly trail of death spanning nearly three decades has gone undetected. Each crime scene reminds Nina of the ghostly Latin folktale of La Llorona, which terrified her when she was an abandoned and vulnerable child. Now it’s back to haunt her.

Nina has known evil, but these macabre reenactments are as disturbing as they are baffling. Now she must uncover the meaning behind the rituals as the evidence leads her in an unexpected direction - far closer to home than anyone could have imagined. As the team narrows in on a suspect, the present collides with Nina’s past in a twist of fate that forces her to make the ultimate sacrifice.

The second in the series and I can’t wait for the third! Really gripping story and excellent narration.

Gripping Story

The team is developing and there character dynamic. The author has an habit of attributing characteristics and thoughts to people through visual clues, sounds more like a script at times than a book. I always view this as lazy and is why I have only given 4 stars. Also the lead has a very childish streak that the author uses to excuse her stubborn silly decisions.
Though the book is a work in progress of what could be a good series.

They come from a similar background, a background packed with loss and rejection, but Nina chose justice not vengeance, and for that she must pay for her weakness.
Nina's story comes full circle here, she is almost brought to her knees by the secrets uncovered and the revelations that change everything. But her team have her back in a way she has never known, never believed in and a way that still surprises her every time. A way that bolsters her strength and gains your respect once again. A fantastic twist that, despite the deaths, manages to be heartwarming too.
I listened to this on Audible with Kindle Unlimited.
