There’s a killer on the loose in Galveston, targeting law enforcement officials and using a fatal injection of snake venom to take them down. Authorities have reasons to believe the Veneno gang is behind the hits, and FBI Agents Leah Riesel and Jon Colbert team up to track down those responsible. Their best lead is an eyewitness who identifies a young man dumping the third body on a church doorstep. But their suspect has gone into hiding, and those closest to him are reluctant to reveal anything that might help investigators find him. As Leah and Jon check connections among the victims and dig deeper into motives, they discover appearances may be deceiving. Someone is desperate to keep their secrets hidden, and Leah and Jon must face their greatest fears in order to stop the next fatal strike.

A very good suspense. I read this when I was feeling bad one day and needed something to distract me and, because it was exactly the medicine I needed, I'm adding the fifth star because I honestly couldn't put it down.
I really enjoyed that the leads are both award-winning snipers who team together to help stop crime. It's a profession that is often stereotyped as “loners” and it was great seeing these two experts work together. I really wasn't expecting the amount of twists in the plot and there was so much there that I had plenty of suspects to consider for the final issue, and it was neat to see how the details tied together in the end.
Overall, I think this was one of my favorite reads from Diann Mills! It definitely kept me in suspense right up to the ending.
Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for a free reading copy. A favorable review was not required.
