Publisher's summary

In this Wall Street Journal and Amazon Charts bestseller, there are no such things as little secrets...

Raised by preppers, survivalist and FBI agent Mercy Kilpatrick has a deep-rooted need for a safe place. Her getaway in the Cascade Foothills is her secret. But when skeletal remains are unearthed - those of a murdered man linked to a notorious heist - Mercy realizes she isn’t the only one with something to hide.

Thirty years ago, an armored-car robbery turned deadly. The mastermind was captured. Four conspirators vanished with a fortune. One of them, it appears, never made it out of the woods alive. For Mercy and her fiancé, Police Chief Truman Daly, their investigation opens old wounds in Eagle’s Nest that cut deeper than they imagined. Especially when a reckless tabloid reporter draws fresh blood. It’s clear to Mercy that somebody in this close-knit community is not who they seem to be.

Some are still shattered by the heist. Some still have reason to be afraid. But which one will kill again and again to hide three decades of secrets? To land this case, it’s up to Mercy to unmask a familiar stranger before someone else dies.

Another great Mercy story

Elliot has given us a great setting in the Mercy books. Lots of family and people in the small town we’ve come to know in basically 8 months! A lot has happened to Mercy Kirkpatrick in that time. Keep them coming Elliot. I’ll keep reading (or listening).

A Merciful Fate

This series just keeps getting better! After Ollie and his dog find a human bone in the woods, skeletal remains are found and they are discovered to be the remains of a bank robber from an infamous robbery that has been a cold case for many years. Add in the vandalism of the B&B and Ollie's tutor's home and then the malicious assault of his tutor. Who is doing all of this or is it all related? I have really enjoyed this series and it has kept me going while packing my house for moving. Definitely recommend this!

Great read

This is a great book. The whole series is great, full of action and a bit of romance. The book is intriguing....you attempt to figure out who committed the crime(s). You think you know who the mastermind is, but you are wrong.

so many mysteries

I've been listening to this series and I enjoy that the events from the previous books are entwined so you can see how people are doing. This was so many mysteries wrapped up in an old bank robbery case. Definitely need to pay close attention if you want to pick up clues to figure it all out

Great Series to Read

I’ve truly enjoyed this series by Kendra Elliott. I started out by reading the free books first and had to follow up reading the others in the series! The narrator is excellent as well! Really worth the read!!! Loved all the ‘Merciful’ series!

Great read

Awesome story. Love these characters and how they interact. Can’t wait for the next book

Great read

I loved it. As usual, Brown has written a beautiful story that twists and turns while holding the reader with minute descriptions.

love the series

loved this story ..Mercy is as good as ever I look forward to more stories

Great book.

I really enjoy this series. The characters are well constructed and I enjoy the setting in the Pacific Northwest. Mercy is complex and real. I like the push and pull as she struggles to strike a balance between being an Federal agent. and her family who grew up as peppers.
I am interested to see what happens in the next book.
This one was filled with a years old bank robbery that came back with a vengeance. Ollie finds a body; Keily and Mercy's partner get shot and. that's just scratching the suface. This is worth a credit so get it already.

Good Read

This was a good book to listen to while working. It was just a little slow at times but all in all not a good listen.
