Publisher's Summary

Evil is closer than you think...

Psychologist Mollie Roark had it all. A hotshot husband, a beautiful daughter, a successful career, and a fancy house on the Napa hillside. She'd finally made it. Left her troubled past and her crazy father far behind her.

But two years ago, the unspeakable happened. Her daughter's burned body turned up on the shores of Lake Berryessa, just days after her 15th birthday. The police seem certain Dakota fell victim to the Shadow Man, the prolific serial killer who had terrorized the Napa Valley for two decades. Mollie's normal life is now anything but. Childless, divorced, and unemployed, she's barely staying afloat. She's got one mission: to find the scumbag who killed her daughter and make him pay.

When a mysterious old man shows up at her door seeking absolution and promising answers, it's impossible to resist. But the deeper she goes inside his mind, the shakier her sanity becomes. Everyone is a suspect. No one is innocent. Because, Mollie knows evil may be as close as her own shadow.

Straight from the mind of a forensic psychologist comes an addictive new series of betrayal, lust, revenge, and murder. These doctors earned their degrees from the dark side. And once you start listening, you won't be able to stop. Like all the books in the Doctors of Darkness series, Shadows Among Us can be listened to as a stand-alone.

After dragging through the first feew chapters this author finally egins the real thriller ..
My advice, stick through the slow
beginning, the story is well worth
the trip. This is just excellent. So
much is going on -- as it builds with so many twists and oddballs -- it is hard to put down. I
enjoyed the story, the non stop chills and thrills and I hope to see more in this series.

A gripping psychological thriller

Psychologist Mollie Roark used to have it all, but when her 15-year-old daughter Dakota is found murdered, she loses everything in her quest to get revenge,
 
This was a fascinating book with dark secrets and terrible truths. It goes through the present timeline, where Dakota is dead and Mollie is on a mission to find out the truth, as well as the past where Dakota was still alive and how she came to die. Throughout the story you learn terrible truths about the so called “perfect” family as well as Dakota’s investigations into the shadowman. It was interesting and kept me on the edge of my seat. I was drawn in and couldn’t wait to see how the story unfolds.
 
Kristin narrated very well with excellent intonation and energy in her performance. She made me feel the emotions I was hearing and kept me entertained throughout the performance.
 
I definitely recommend this book; it is exciting and I cannot wait to hear more from the author!
