Publisher's summary

Homicide detective Amy Sadler and her new wife, forensic pathologist Lira Ward, are enjoying marital bliss when they are hit with a gruesome new case: Someone is killing couples and families, with most of their rage directed at the wives.

While trying to solve the case, Amy begins receiving threats from someone within the police department who doesn't seem happy about her marriage to Lira.

Amy finds herself desperately trying to uncover who is out to destroy her marriage - because she doesn't want to find out how far they're willing to go.

Great story

Wow, the second book in this series is even better than the first. An emotional roller coaster thrill ride! I loved the way the story took some unexpected turns and the narration was superb!

Great Story and Narration!

"I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review."

I was so pleasantly surprised with this book. It was really suspenseful and had an enormous twist that was unique. It’s also great that the author developed her characters so thoroughly. Just a fun story to listen to. I’ll definitely be looking at her other books, and recommend them to others.

Narration was perfect in my opinion, her voice suited the story and characters quite well. Sound quality was excellent.

Are there more books coming in this series???

Although I haven't heard the first book this worked well as a standalone. The characters were unique and different than I typically encounter in my reading. their personalities were well developed and engaging. The plot was engrossing. This novel was paced in a way that I was grabbed from the first words. I listened to the entire novel in one sitting. It was a rewarding 5 1/2 hours. Michelle Arnold can spin great story. I also appreciate the strength of the love and commitment shared in this piece. It was also refreshing to have the issue of family expressed so well.

A very good sequel

In this sequel Amy and Lira have gotten married and are settling into their new lives together, when a seeming new killer arises that is targeting families, and Amy begins receiving threats from within the PD about her marriage to Lira. With the multiple storylines running together as well as the continual development of the core cast this book flows very well and is continually entertaining from start to finish.

The narration by Lisa L Wiley is once again very good, and she succeeds greatly when inhabiting Amy and Lira and their interactions. This book I thought improved the intertwining of the case and the character development and relationship building. The case was always entertaining and the journey to catch the killer was suspenseful and engrossing. The two lead characters are as enchanting and enjoyable to spend time with as the first go around and with a plot more tightly wound throughout the book, I thought this was a great sequel. I look forward to checking out whatever comes next from Michelle Arnold.

Great series

I can’t wait for the next book! Narrator is either doing a better job, or I’m just becoming accustomed to her.
