She wants to go down fighting, and to take as many serial killers with her as she can. A serial killer strikes in the Virginia area, targeting women who seek fertility treatments. As Rachel enters his sick and twisted mind, she struggles to understand his motive, or the connection between the victims.

As she seeks insight from a diabolical, jailed serial killer, she immediately realizes it’s a mistake. Can he see right through her?

And can she keep herself from descending down the dark hole of her own traumatic past?

I received a copy of the book from the author in exchange for an honest review.I have read other books by [a:Blake Pierce 14773558 Blake Pierce https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1484064043p2/14773558.jpg] and I loved all of them, so I went into this book expecting the same but I was really disappointed.First off I felt like the author was in a hurry to finish the book so the full thing felt hurried.Secondly the ending, I feel like it should have been more spaced since I felt like Rachel got the murderer by just guessing who it was.But overall the book was pretty okay. And I cant wait for the next one to see what Rachel would do next!The reason I gave a 3 star rating is for the reasons above and I noticed quite a bit of grammatical errors but if the book had gone through another round of editing I would have definitely given a higher rating.
