When a body is found stuffed into a barrel at a garbage dump, covered in long red lacerations, Detective Jenna Alton and her new deputy, David Kane, rush to the scene.

Both were strangers to the town, but there's nothing else to link them. Jenna knows someone must have seen something, but no one's talking.

Everyone in the small town of Denton is searching for Isabelle Coleman, a missing 17-year-old girl. All they've found so far is her phone and another girl they didn't even know was missing. Mute and completely unresponsive to the world around her, it's clear this mysterious girl has been damaged beyond repair. All Detective Josie Quinn can get from her is a name: Ramona. Currently suspended from the force for misconduct, Josie takes matters into her own hands as the name leads her to evidence linking the two girls.

When Claire sees a car full of children careen into a river, she rushes to the rescue. But the driver, a mother named Leah Holloway, prefers to drown.

Summary
As she opened her eyes and took in her surroundings, a feeling of terror ran through her weakened body. She knew exactly where she was. And she knew exactly what was about to happen to her....
When Ella Tate stumbles into Black Rock Falls, her exhausted and bloodied body is a terrifying sight, but not as frightening as the story she has to tell. Ambushed on their way into town when they stopped to help a man by the side of the road, Ella and her friend Sky ran when he pulled a knife on them. But only one of them got away.
As Detective Jenna Alton investigates the case, she looks into the history of missing persons in the town and uncovers more cases - all young people. All stopped on the same stretch of road into town. All vanished without a trace.
When a distinctive pink sweater belonging to Sky turns up in Black Rock Falls, Jenna follows the trail to a derelict building on the outskirts of town. But she isn’t prepared for what lies behind those doors. Can she stop the killer before more lives are lost?

Wow! Don't miss this one.
A fast paced exciting thrill ride. The killer was so evil that by the time I'd finished listening I was out of breath. What an incredible storyline. D.K. Hood just keeps on getting better. I wonder what she'll write next? Whatever, I can't wait a second longer for the next in the series. I've said it before, this series needs to be on TV or in the movies. It is like being there. The author's incredibly skillful writing took me into the story so deeply I had shivers down my spine and couldn't sleep without the lights on. Yes she is THAT darn good.
Do I recommend this book? I wish I could give it 100 stars. If you love a good thriller with believable characters and incredible settings, read it, read all of them in the series and you won't be disappointed.

EXCELLENT ADDITION TO THE SERIES!
I'm so impressed with the writing talents of D.K. Hood. Her character development throughout the series has been superb! As for the narration, I can't give it a 5 star rating but it definitely deserves a 4 star. Her male voices aren't the best and you have to listen closely to the words to know who is speaking. I prefer that the tone of a narrator reflects the different characters. Patricia Rodriguez isn't that perfected yet. With that being said, overall it's an excellent book!

I'm rating this a bit high, by the time it finished it earned good marks in plot, thrill quotient and good old villain-ties- young- woman-on- RR-tracks.
