Someone has a secret. One worth killing for.
The rolling fields outside Curry, Oklahoma, are a beautiful spot to ramble on a spring day...and a lonely place to die.
Rejecting her judge father's prestigious connections, Ellie Guthrie opened her own law firm in Curry. But something strange is going on.
Ellie's tires are slashed. Dead rats are dumped on her patio. And then bodies begin turning up - supposed overdoses that her neighbour, former FBI agent Nate Marcel, suspects are something much more sinister.
There's a killer in town, toying with her, drawing both Ellie and Nate into a web of murder and vengeance. To find answers, she'll have to unearth this small community's dark and twisted past...before it's her turn to die.
Look for more page-turning suspense from Alexandra Ivy with Pretend You're Safe and What Are You Afraid Of?, out now.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Suspense and romance are uneasy partners in Ivy's uneven rural Oklahoma thriller (following 2018's What Are You Afraid Of?). Defense attorney Ellie Guthrie is still in the early stages of establishing her own law firm in the small town of Curry, Okla., over her parents' objections. Maintaining her independence also means turning down the romantic advances of her neighbor, former FBI agent Nate Marcel. Ellie is one of the targets of a spate of crimes and questionable situations, including the overdose death of Daniel Perry, local ne'er-do-well and son of the former sheriff. His body was found in a field with a tangled history that involves longtime residents of Curry. Ellie and Nate assume responsibility for investigating, lacking faith in Curry's dismissive and ineffective sheriff, Gary Clark. Satisfyingly steamy encounters between Nate and Ellie feel jarring amid the crime scenes, and their actions pushing the boundaries of legality seem out of character, marring the reading experience for fans of both thrillers and romance.
