Buried Deception

On the Edge, Book 1

De: Amanda McKinney

Narrado por: Arielle DeLisle, Lance Greenfield

In the pulse-racing first installment of the On the Edge series, a criminal psychologist teams up with a former marine on a deadly wildland mission. Not even their hearts can stay out of harm’s way.

In the swamps of East Texas, alligators aren’t the only danger lurking in the shadows.

After a young woman is brutally attacked on a popular hiking trail, the evidence points to the notorious Black Cat Stalker. The town of Skull Hollow enlists Dr. Mia Frost to provide a psychological profile and assist in the investigation.

When another person goes missing, Mia partners with Easton Crew, former marine and current CEO of a tactical tracking company. Both Mia and Easton are stubborn, strong-willed, and independent, but neither can deny the smoldering attraction between them.

As professional lines blur, Easton starts to question Mia’s motives and worries she’s getting too close to the investigation. The mystery begins to unravel, but so does Mia’s mental health as the clues dredge up her own haunted past.

It soon becomes evident that things aren’t as they seem … and people aren’t always who they say they are.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“McKinney’s completely absorbing suspense and low heat converge to make a satisfying read in this series launch.”—Library Journal

I knew who did it from the start

It didn't completely ruin the story for me because the narration was great but it held very few surprises. works for me when I'm busy with other stuff and am a bit distracted... missing things isn't really an issue.

I enjoyed this

This was a good story, easy to follow with great visual descriptions. I listened while I was doing my end-of-year house cleaning and it was perfect. suspense, romance, violence. It covered everything you want in a book and it was long so I didn't have to think about finding something else.

Tough Love

This is a tough story with chilling horrors and hard won love. A good thriller that nots for the faint of heart.

Excellent

Great work. This book kept my attention at the Dame for time the plot was ever changing, never guessing who the villain was. Was the main character the victim or the villain?

Audiobook

Attention holding story. Interesting main characters. The following is not in reference to the actual story, but a comment on the narration of the audiobook. While I enjoy good variation in character narration that makes distinguishing between who speaking quite obvious, I could have done without the use of a male and female narrator for this book. The female narrator would have sufficed and did the male character voice just fine. She gets 5 stars. I almost didn’t continue on with the book after it starting off with the male narrator. He sounded like a version of Will Shatner and an episode of Dragnet, distracting from the story. Thankfully, the narration seemed to somewhat improve as the book went on and was broken up by having a female voice.

great book

Great book. Be warned it is about serial rape. great voice actors. I can't wait to read the second one!

A must read

This book was amazing! Hardly ever do you have an author who uses character development to drive a story forward but this author does it! And she leaves you questioning till the very end your sanity as you read! I am so glad I read this with my best friend because I absolutely needed someone to bounce my theories off of! At moments I questioned everything I had theorized and then I would be pulled by that need to know feeling! What a wonderful book and I can’t wait to read more by this author!!

Great plot you wouldn't suspect

I enjoyed the whole premise of the book and the plot was different and exciting

Dark pasts…

A young teen is missing and professional security and tracking guru, Easton, is called in to help with search and rescue. Easton locates the traumatized girl and the local psychologist, Mia, is called in to speak with her and build a profile.

Mia’s dark past seems to have followed her to the small town of Skull Hollow, can Easton really keep her safe or will he betray her as others have?

Great!!
