Publisher's summary

"Find Patrick Lahm. Tell him it has her."

When a serial killer is found dead in the woods outside the quiet town of Darville, with scratches across his face, and his head impaled on a shovel, Patrick Lahm and Jimmy Frey are called back to Connecticut. Living as fugitives, and constantly moving from place to place, it is a call they have been praying for in their tedious search for the monster that started it all, and tore their lives apart.

But Darville is not as peaceful as it seems, and the sins of the many cannot remain hidden forever. Patrick and Jimmy quickly realize that, despite their best laid plans, things can go terribly wrong. As darkness descends on the small New England town, the evil that had once brought misery upon the guests of the Kurtain Motel, finds its place amongst the wicked, and promises them salvation.

All they have to do is confess.

A good read

The book was a good read, or rather listen. Thom Bowers does an excellent job on the narration.

Last Confess

I purchased and read this 3nd in series book in June, and given audiobook in September by Scare Street (THANK YOU) it is so much better to listen too. I love horror and ghosts stories. Loved the characters of Patrick, Jimmy, Jack, Philip and all of the characters from Kurtain Motel and Refuge continue in this book. Patrick and Jimmy are trying to rescue Tara in Purgatory in Darville. Patrick needs to find Jimmy and heads to the Heldon Manor. The epilog hints there could be another series with Philip and Jimmy (hope so). This book was suspenseful, scary, creepy and thrilling better than the Slaughter series. Recommend to anyone who enjoys horror/supernatural books.

Book number three

This is part number three in the series. You have only three who survived that stormy night at Kurtain Motel. You have Patrick Lehm, Tara and her teenage son Jimmy. They're trying to get away to Canada. Sadly they stop in the town of Refuge, Maine and they feel safe. Patrick gets a job. You then have Patrick and Jimmy trying to rescud Tara who is in Purgatory. The characters are interesting and go well with the storyline. You have suspense, sometimes creepy, but remember confessions set you free. I enjoyed this book even with the Zombies. The narration is good and you will want the audible version.

Great ending.

Book 3 sees Patrick and Jimmy on the hunt for the evil that took over Jimmy's mother. Patrick gets a call from a friend to tell them about a serial killer being killed near where he lives, Darville. After the events at the Kurtain Motel in the last book, Patrick is wanted by the police so is trying to keep a low profile, but he has no choice but to go to Darville and investigate.

This one is hard to summarise simply because this is book 3 and I would spoil things for both book 2 and this one. So I'll just say that the plot of this was great. It wraps up a lot of the questions from the other books, plus it's a lot darker. Poor Patrick is stuck in the cell with the spiders!!! *Shiver* The plot of the overall series is quite complex and twisty, but worth it if you stick with it. I was blown away with parts!!

Jimmy and Patrick have their work cut out for them and things come to a head. I was rooting for them the whole way through and was satisfied with the ending!! So in all, a great ending and I need to check out more from this author.

Thom Bowers read this well and gave a great performance. He is easy to listen to and brought the story alive.

I was voluntarily provided this audiobook for free from the author, narrator, or publisher. This in no way affected nor influenced my thoughts.

Purgatory ?

I liked this story. It was a continuation of the story of Patrick and Jimmy. This story was very well narrated. I just wished that we would find out what happened to Jimmy and Philip. I will keep reading stories from this author.

Strangely Intriguing

Seems strange as you go into this book of the series but hang in there, it all comes together somewhat in the end.

Like its predecessors, I couldn’t put it down.

Again, I couldn’t put this book down, and it was very much like somethings Stephen King and dean Koontz would’ve written. I was sad that it ended, because with any good book, I always get attached to the characters. Lots of creep, lots of intrigue, and lots of twists and turns that kept me guessing, usually wrongly.

Great conclusion (?)

Great conclusion to the series... or maybe there will be another book?? It was interesting having the boy’s ‘on the run’ searching for Tara. The character development was definitely there, and we got to meet some new characters as well. Thom Bowers does a great job narrating!

And I waited.....

I never thought there would be an ending I could live with in this third instalment, and while it did end with the death of sort of, the question I still have is this, what was the “key” meant to do, and what was Phillips backstory...

Perhaps another series about that??

Please!
