About this ebook

ONE LAST STEP (A Tara Mills Mystery—Book One) is the debut novel in a new FBI mystery series by debut author Sarah Sutton.

 

Two hikers go missing along the Appalachian Trail, leaving only a bloodstained forest behind them, and when another hiker collapses on someone’s porch in New Hampshire, murdered by crossbow, the local police realize they have a serial killer on their hands––and need to call in the FBI.


FBI Agent Tara Mills is young, brilliant and new to the force. With a promising career in front of her, she faces the ultimate test when she is assigned the case. It soon proves to be more challenging than she ever could have imagined––an impossible riddle that leaves even her seasoned partner stumped.


Meanwhile, something about the case stirs a darkness within her—a tortured past that even her long-term boyfriend doesn’t fully understand. As nightmares consume her, she only hopes that her past will not come back to ruin her once again.


As more hikers go missing, and with her job on the line, Tara finds herself on a race against time as she combs through the forest’s trails. Peeling back each layer, she soon realizes that she is up against a true diabolical mastermind. And just when she thinks she has it all figured out, her instincts lead her to the most shocking truth of all.


Book #2 in the series—ONE LAST BREATH—is also now available!

One Last Step is the first book in the "A Tara Mills Mystery" series and is an intriguing read. I loved this book and found it to be fast-paced and interesting. The character of Tara Mills is intelligent and has tragedy in her past. The storyline is well crafted and fast-paced, with a great backstory for Tara, a serial killer, danger, suspense, and intrigue. The only problem I found with the book is that the next one is not available yet. This is the first book I have read by this author and I look forward to reading more. I read and reviewed this book with no obligation.

I loved this book! I read it all in one night lol. Definitely buying the second one now! I did notice towards the end, it says her phone had been broken but a few scenes later, her boss calls her on her phone. That part confused me a bit.

Just couldn't read it. Protaganist comes off as incompetent and very lacking in self confidence due to her past emotional trauma, and with such baggage, I seriously doubt this woman would ever have been hired by the FBI (at least I hope so) which just made the story hard to get into, and the baggage is brought up A LOT!
