Anna Koray escaped her father’s darkness long ago. When she was a girl, her childhood memories were sealed away from her conscious mind by a controversial hypnosis treatment. She’s now a decorated sheriff’s lieutenant serving a rural county, conducting an ordinary life far from her father’s shadow. When Anna kills a man in the line of duty, her suppressed memories return. She dreams of her beloved father, his hands red with blood, surrounded by flower-decked corpses he had sacrificed to the god of the forest. To Anna’s horror, a serial killer emerges who is copying her father – and who knows who she really is. Is her father still alive, or is this the work of another? Will the killer expose her, destroying everything she has built for herself? Does she want him to? But as she haunts the forest, using her father’s tricks to the hunt the killer, will she find what she needs most…or lose herself in the gathering darkness?
I thought this was really unique. The mystery and thrilling aspects of this book held up from beginning to end. I got invested in the characters and the paranormal levels to the story. I am an avid reader so it doesn’t take me too much for me to figure out the murderer in some cases. I thought I had this one figured out right away and was still so pleased that it kept me entertained and engaged. Turns out, I didn’t have it figured out! Kudos to you Solvinic!!
Great first debut! I gave this novel 4.5 stars. Lots of intriguing characters and twists and turns. Besides, anything novel that can catch me off guard is always a win for me!
Huge thank you to NetGalley and Berkley for the opportunity to receive this ARC on this suspenseful novel!
