Ratings and reviews

Very well written, read a chapter every opportunity I could get... thank you for your story , mesmerising... I can't buy the series yet. .. am older generation and try to keep going using cash.. which is becoming more difficult each year, ( am more than useless with internet stuff ), hence I'm extremely grateful for your very generous gift of this ebook, so happy to have found it.

I was rooting for the mother & son to have a stable relationship with each other but regarding the circumstances that they were in that was impossible...the ending was very heartbreaking...this was an amazing book...very scary too😂👌🏾

The Cove is the first book in The Devil's Cove Trilogy and is a real page-turner. This spine-chilling serial killer story kept me on the edge of my seat as it watched it unfold. The book is well written and will keep you wondering who is terrorizing this small town. I cannot wait to read the next book in this trilogy. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
