Publisher's summary

Investigative reporter Jillian Carter knows that it's time to put the past to rest. She's tired of looking over her shoulder, letting a killer go free. She's no longer the scared kid who changed her name and disappeared. Now, no matter what the cost, Jillian must do what she is trained to do: ferret out the truth and expose it. Senator Frank Hoffman committed murder 10 years ago, and Jillian watched it happen - didn't she? Not even the enigmatic and attractive Colton Brady, her ex-boyfriend and nephew of the killer, will be able to make her leave this alone.

Great Mystery

I really liked this mystery . Lots of twists and turns and excitement. The narrator was perfect.
I have read a few books by this author but this is the first Audio book. Will look for more!

Occasional Reader

I laughed and cried during this third book. I was saddened when I realized I had finished it because I wanted it to continue on and on since I had enjoyed it so much. I correctly guessed the real murderer early on but my emotions got the best of me as I listened through the last third of the book. My sisters had read the first book in the series but had stopped there saying they did not like the ending that left them hanging, and I told them they needed to finish the next two books to get the true picture. They have now gone back to read all three. I hope these books are made into a movie.

Had me on pins and needles

This series was great!!!! Couldn’t stop listening. I may need to read book 4 since it’s not on audible.

Wow....just wow....and remember the name Renée Chamblis

This was an amazing story and the narrator WAS PERFECT and that is what made this book so compelling! The story line was great, the perfect ending (though by what someone previously indicated, there may be a fourth book) to this trilogy!

True mystery till the end

Great book and mystery - surprise ending. Not like many plots where you know the culprit early

Excellent story!

Lots of twists and turns in the plot. Nice surprise about the real killer. I really liked Meg, Jillian's daughter. Lots of spunk and sass. My only problem with this character is that she sounds younger than the almost 10 year old girls I know. But that was a very minor thing and didn't mar the story for me at all. I highly recommend not only this novel, but also this whole series! All three books are excellent.

Good series, absolutely terrible narration.

This is a good series. I’m sure I would really enjoy the books.
However the narrator is real bad and ruined the experience.
I feel bad for the author and hope others don’t judge the book by the performance.

Suspenseful and Captivating Series

This series really kept you engaged and sitting on the edge of your seat! Each book had a new twist that led you in a different direction and the last book brought everything together and had a very unsuspected ending.
Lynette Eason is an excellent author that can weave such a suspenseful plot that will have you listening for hours.
