6.5.2021 - A Dark and Secret Place

A Dark and Secret Place by Jen Williams

Many thanks to NetGalley and Crooked Lane Books for gifting me a digital copy of this book by Jen Williams - 4 creepy stars!

Heather hasn't been close to her mom, Colleen, for years but when Colleen dies by suicide and Heather returns to her home to settle things, she finds out that she didn't really know her mom at all.  The suicide note is cryptic but Heather also finds letters that Colleen exchanged with Micheal Reeves, a notorious serial killer currently in prison nicknamed "Red Wolf."  When similar style murders begin again, local police enlist Heather to talk to Michael to see if she can get him to talk.  But strange, frightening things are happening to Heather, leaving her afraid to stay in her family home.

This is a well-written mystery that kept me guessing to the end.  But it is quite disturbing so be aware if you are squeamish!
