Publisher Description
When victims turn up with Shakespearean sonnets left on their bodies, the handiwork of a diabolical serial killer, FBI Special Agent (and psychic medium) Carly See is called in. Can she use her intuition to supplement her brilliant investigative skills and save the next victim before it’s too late?
NO WAY OUT (A Carly See FBI Suspense Thriller—Book 1) is the debut novel in a new series by mystery and suspense author Rylie Dark.
FBI Special Agent Carly See, a star in the elite BAU unit, hides a terrible secret: she can speak with the dead. The murder of her sister, still unsolved, plunged her life into grief and awakened a new power within her. Sometimes messages come from direct contact, other times in dreams. All of it feels like a curse—until Carly realizes she can harness her new skills to solve cases. But her abilities are unreliable, and Carly must use her brilliant mind to complete the puzzle—all while struggling to keep her secret from her colleagues.
As Carly races to decode the conflicting messages she receives from the other side, she wonders: Why these poems? Why these victims? What connects them? What is the killer’s secret message?
And who will he strike next?
In a twisted game of cat and mouse, this killer seems to know way too much about Carly. Is he toying with her?
Or is Carly herself the prey?
A page-turning thriller packed with twists and turns, secrets, and harrowing surprises you won’t see coming, the CARLY SEE series is a mystery series that will endear you to a unique new character and having you turning pages, bleary-eyed, late into the night.
Books #2-#6 in the series—NO WAY BACK, NO WAY HOME, NO WAY LEFT, NO WAY UP, and NO WAY TO DIE—are now also available.

Well written mystery
Overall beautiful book
The Good and The Bad
I really enjoyed this book. It was full of mystery, twist and turns. I never wanted to put it down because I wanted to see what would happen next. I loved how many questions were being raised throughout the story. One thing that really bothered me, however, was how the killer was revealed. One of my favorite things about reading a murder mystery is trying to solve who the killer is before they’re revealed to the characters. I love analyzing all of the suspects, picking out small clues that may or may not matter, changing my mind about who the killer is, and finally seeing if I was right. This book doesn’t allow you to do that. Instead the killer doesn’t get revealed until the end of the story—AND it’s someone that you weren’t even introduced to! Instead of getting that awesome “I knew it!” or “Oh my gosh, how did I not see that? !” feeling, I was robbed of the opportunity to solve the mystery because I was left speechless by a random nobody that I’d never suspect. All in all, I did enjoy this book. The mystery, suspense, and unpredictable twists made me not want to put this down. I just wish that the killer was introduced earlier on so we as readers could try to solve the mystery ourselves. That would have made all the difference for me.
Great Murder Mystery
Carly and Lyle the lead detectives take you through a series of murders based on Shakespeare’s works . Interesting plots. Great read.
