About this listen
She wakes to the sound of footsteps outside her secluded home. Moving toward the window, she scans the dark woods around her and freezes. A tall figure in a long, dark coat holds a crossbow pointed right at her. She blinks as lightning cracks overhead. But when she opens her eyes, the figure has vanished....
When the body of a man is found in the dense forest surrounding Black Rock Falls, Sheriff Jenna Alton immediately sees disturbing similarities with a past case - the same murder weapon, the remote beauty spot, and the way the victim is perched against a tree with no sign of a struggle. But the killer in that case was jailed for life.
Jenna suspects a copycat killer, and her fears are confirmed when during the town’s Halloween festival, the bodies of two tourists are found further down the remote trail. They too had been hunted down and murdered in another picturesque spot, and all Jenna can hope is that the man behind bars can help her catch the twisted monster behind these new deaths.
As she comes face-to-face with the vicious murderer who has haunted her dreams for years, she is sure he knows more than he’s telling her. Looking deep into Jenna’s eyes, as if they’re two old friends catching up, he promises to take his final revenge on her for locking him up. But before she can learn more, he is dragged away by prison guards.
When a sudden emergency call takes Jenna and her deputy David Kane deep into the woods, Jenna senses something is very wrong about the situation. As a strange calmness falls over the forest, a familiar face emerges from the shadows. Will this killer be the one who finally takes down Sheriff Alton, and can they make it out of the forest alive?
If you love heart-racing crime books by authors like Lisa Regan, Melinda Leigh, and Kendra Elliot, you will love this exciting thriller from USA Today best-selling author D.K. Hood.
Each Kane and Alton book can be listened to as part of the series or as a stand-alone

Is that ALL
I really enjoy the characters and story line the author provides; however, the character dialog is extremely annoying. It seems like every piece of dialog ends with "Is ALL". Maybe this is colloquial for the region but the fact is that every spoken word could end without the last 2 or 3 words of each sentence and it would make the book more enjoyable. The characters all have the same speech pattern, which takes away from each characters personality.
I only have one comment regarding the story line, it does not make logical sense that the Sherriff and Deputy (second in command) go absolutely everywhere together, leaving the Junior Deputies to fend for themselves. It makes the Sherriff look weak and incompetent.
The narrator is difficult to listen to, she makes every character sound like they are a 15 year old girl. I am not referring to her actual voice but rather the pace, tone, and inflection of her voice. On a positive note, her words are clear and crisp, easy to understand.
