A string of brutal murders is leaving a grisly trail across the Pacific Northwest—and drawing rising star FBI profiler Laurel Snow back into a treacherous case and a twisted personal drama she can’t escape . . .

The first body is torn apart, blood and flesh discovered across both state and federal lands. As the victims multiply, a pattern emerges—each is related to past cases investigated by Laurel Snow, with the assist of Huck Rivers, Washington Fish and Wildlife captain. When friends and loved ones are targeted, things become even more chillingly personal.

As Laurel and Huck team up again to navigate the gruesome and increasingly bizarre killings, they must also keep a safe distance from Laurel’s half-sister, Abigail, a dangerously clever sociopath. Ever since their father reappeared in town, Abigail has been convinced she must protect Laurel from his malignant narcissism—a scourge she’s sure they’ve both inherited. Huck is not spared either as a shocking development in the case touches his own life.

With the murders, and the suspects, multiplying around them, and the lives of everyone in their orbit at stake, only Laurel’s sharp analytic skills, Huck’s deep gut instincts, and their growing bond will enable them to face the demons within and the threats without—before they’re next on an elusive killer’s hit list . . .

Ratings and reviews

This is the first book that I've read in the series but it did not impair my understanding of You Can Kill. It has a good plot and is well-written and it touchs two important subjects - family relationships and church. I liked how Laurel interacts with her team and especially with Huck (her boyfriend), its rather interesting how the author describes her behavior when faced with emotions and quirks that she has difficulty in understanding.

FBI Special Agent Laurel Snow and Captain Huck Rivers of Fish and Wildlife are once again deep in the thick of a series of gruesome murders that seem to haunt this small rural Washington town. Laura has already had to deal with several personal issues including her super creepy sociopath half-sister who seems obsessed with her and a narcissistic, seriously evil father, Zeke Caine. The first target and subsequent women who become victims have ties to Laurel and her family.

Danger is everywhere in the new edition to this suspenseful series. She is never afraid to cross those lines. Laurel and Huck are after another killer but this time it hits close to home. I could barely put this book down it was spectacular. I love the slow progression of there relationship over the course of this series. With most of her crew gone Laurel is relying on others to help with the multiple cases. Opposition from everywhere comes against them. The ending was a total shocker and I j
