Publisher Description
College student Eve Sawyer senses something disturbing at Murder Creek—the site named for infamous murders committed centuries earlier and where Lacey Walken went missing.
Twenty years ago, Lacey disappeared without a trace … except for her bloody scarf tangled in fallen branches at the muddy water’s edge.
Drawn to this cold case, Eve goes back to investigate and write a report for her journalism class. As she discovers a small town’s long-buried dark secrets, the pieces of the puzzle come together: the legacy of a man, the fate of a beautiful woman, and the lives that changed forever.
But someone wants Eve to stop—someone with everything to lose.
If Eve’s not careful, she could be next.

Excellent
I absoluetly loved every second of listening to this book! The story was well written with the details pulling the listener in and needing to know what was going to happen next! The narrator made it fun to listen to and kept you listening with small voice ques! Definitely recommend this for a listen!
Fantastic!
Wow….as I sit here I cannot stop thinking about this book.
Eve is a college student who happens to come across a place called “Murder Creek” in her travels. This totally intrigues Eve, and after some searching about this place, she stumbles upon a cold case of a woman who disappeared years earlier. Eve is drawn to this story and decides to investigate further to write her research paper on for her journalism college class. Little did Eve know once she opened up old wounds…secrets come out of the shadows….
If you love a story with a cold case mystery feel, deceit, lies, secrets, twists and heartbreak….definitely listen to this book. Wow what a story!!
Murder Creek Review by Torey Foster
Murder Creek is a story of a journalism student working on a story of a disappearance that took place 20 years ago at Murder Creek. Lacey disappeared leaving only a bloody scarf behind. Eve is drawn to the case and believes there are dark secrets to be uncovered and not everything is as it seems in this town. The more she investigates, the more danger she is in, as not everyone wants secrets revealed and they will do everything they can to prevent her from digging them up.
I have to say I really enjoyed this story. It has a great plot, full of mystery and danger. I would definitely recommend you buy the book, BUT NOT THE AUDIO VERSION. I really struggled listening to this reader. It was like she was trying too hard to act throughout the whole reading, to the point of distracting from the story. She would be reading a suspenseful or scary part but would talk super soft like you would talk to a small child. Her tone did not fit what was happening in the story at all and for me, it made it hard to listen to and to keep my attention on what would normally be a book that I couldn’t put down. I would have preferred a robot voice. Justice was not done to this great story, in the audio version, but I would definitely recommend you read it yourself or use the text-to-speech option.
