Resumen del Editor

Heads or tails?

Three hours into her new job, Blake Larsen stumbles across her first body. But this is no ordinary murder. The scene is elaborately staged, with the victim's head clinically severed from her shoulders. Blake is certain this isn't the killer's first time.

Then, a second woman goes missing, a beautiful young Army wife named Nina Crawford. When the kidnappers—claiming to be ISIS—release a horrific videoed ransom demand threatening to livestream her execution, the attention of the entire country turns to Northern Pines. And a countdown begins. Nina has 48 hours to live.

The two cases must be connected. But why murder one woman and kidnap another? Why deliberately fan the flames of media attention? And why does the killer's MO match two cold cases from almost a decade earlier?

As the FBI searches for terrorists, the body count rises, and protesters battle on the normally placid streets of Northern Pines, only one thing is clear: nothing about this case makes sense. Blake knows she's in a race against time.

And the clock is ticking…

Good story

The action and details are well done and believable. A good listen and good follow up to the first book

Blake Larson is a great character.

I was so-so on the first book of the series, but this one was so much better. love Blake

She Lies Here

Really enjoying the Blake series. Now I need to know when the next book comes out!

Serial killer or terrorist group?

4.25 Stars 🌟

This is the second book in this series. After the craziness in the first book, the North Pines Police Department is undergoing a complete overhaul. Blake is surprised to be offered a Lieutenant's position as a Detective for the neighboring Sheriff's Department. And, because things are never easy, she is faced with a brand new case on the morning of her first day. This case is a doozy. First there is a report of a missing woman. Then a body is discovered, but it is not the missing woman.....

That is how we dive into this action packed book - a serial killer or a terrorist group? Either way, it is a big deal for a small town, especially after the events of the first book.

While I enjoyed this book, I didn't enjoy it as much as the first book. There is a LOT. It was also hard for me to imagine all of this happening, especially because she truly had no experience with civilian police departments and is pretty much taking over a lead role for several different agencies. If you can suspend a certain amount of believability, then it makes things a lot easier to take. It is truly a crazy journey and the case itself is pretty crazy.

I did like the book, but I liked book 1 better.

Am I going to keep going with this series? Yep, you better believe it. We still have to figure out what happened to her parents.....

Wonderful book

Loved the book. Was hanging on with every twist and turn it took. Cant wait to listen to more.

loved it more than the first

this 2nd book in the Blake Larson series was awesome!!! the story line NEVER slowed down. high impact and really real world things.. I absolutley loved it listened in a day it was that good.. Brittany Pressley is one of my top 5 narrators!!! she takes you into the story with her, I have listen to books she narrated and ended up loving them!!! awesome all around!!!

Excellent story line.

I'm so glad I found this series. I was looking for books narrated by Brittany .

Wow!

Wow! That certainly was suspenseful; and I couldn’t stop listening. Great author and narrator. This was the 2nd book in the series; and I am excited to start the 3rd book.

Warning

Equally as good as first book in series and well written. And I don't mind a novel ending with a tempting teaser at the end. BUT it is inexcusable to use the very same teaser at the end of two consecutive books. We know not one thing more about what happened to Blake's parents but there's lots of "oooo, big mystery ahead" and I'm over it.

I won't be continuing with Blake. Sorry.

Moves fast

Love this series. Can't wait for the next book in the series. Great characters. Blake is Wonder Woman.
