Publisher Description

‘OMG… The whole time I sat on the edge of my more than once crying ‘oh, nooooo!’… really fast paced with an all-consuming air of danger and suspense.’ B for Bookreview, 5 stars



The light fades as she runs for her life, the forest now becoming quieter around her. The only noise she hears is the sound of footsteps following her...


It’s hiking season in Black Rock Falls and the small town in Montana is flooded with visitors. But when a hiker finds a human skull on a deserted trail in the woods that surround the town, Detective Jenna Alton is called in to investigate. 


With no missing persons reported, Jenna has no leads. Then her team makes a shocking discovery – the body of another hiker, a young man, tied to a tree and riddled with bullets. Could the two murders be linked?


As more bodies are found, Jenna and her deputy David Kane know that they must venture deep into the forest to find and face the killer. But nothing can prepare them for what awaits them there…  


If you love Robert Dugoni, Karin Slaughter and Rachel Abbott you’ll love this nail-biting thriller from D.K. Hood.



**Each Kane and Alton book can be read as part of the series or as a standalone**

It’s hunting season in Black Rock Falls

‘Psychopaths are welcome in Black Rock Falls’

Winter is coming to Black Rock Falls. The temperature is dropping but this does not deter the hunters of Montana and not just those who are game hunting…

There is a serious psycho-hunter on the prowl! His MO is seriously twisted as MOs go but as I learnt more about his killing spree, my blood chilled with a shocking extra layer to the way this psychopath killer operates. D.K. Hood has created a extreme killer this time, I’m scared to think what goes on in this woman’s head sometimes!

“Why do these lunatics keep choosing Black Rock Falls?”

As with the previous Kane and Alton books, I got to spend a bit of time with the evil individual who is tormenting Black Rock Falls. This psychopath is a strange individual, getting kicks from the hunt and the kill of his victims.

But the “well-oiled machine” that is the Black Rock Falls Sheriff’s Department are on hand. I have loved this team since I met them back in Don’t Tell A Soul. And as the team has grown in strength, they’ve become more rounded as a crime fighting team. Their team work is brilliant, each playing to their strengths and not afraid to learn new skills.

All I can say is D.K. Hood, you’ve done it again, another excellent crime thriller that is dark and twisted! Thank you and keep them coming!!
