About this ebook

A serial killer is hiding in plain sight. No one is safe in this seaside town. Not even FBI Special Agent Tanya Stone and her K9, Max.

 

Paradise Cove is the perfect vacation getaway. So, FBI Agent Tanya Stone thinks...

 

Until a Porsche slams into the café where she and her detective friends are enjoying a morning coffee. To their horror, the driver shoots a man dead.

 

Then, she turns the gun on herself next.

 

The sheriff is quick to call it a case of extreme road rage, but Tanya realizes not all is well in this idyllic community.

 

The sinister secret behind this brutal crime lies buried deep in the nearby woods. But no one wants to see the truth.

 

With the help of her friends and her K9 partner, Max, Tanya becomes obsessed with unraveling the deadly mystery. But the more lies she exposes, the more dangerous it is to stay in town.

 

A killer is hiding in plain sight, watching her....

This prequel had me glued to my chair. It is one of those rare & wonderful books that starts with a bang and delivers one surprise after another maintaining a relentless pace of action and unending suspense throughout. What was supposed to be a relaxing vacation for Tanya Stone, an FBI recruit, and her friends, evolves into a wickedly twisted murder mystery. I loved the story, the brisk pace, and the wonderful characters. Tanya’s highly trained K9, Max, is a real scene-stealer. Great story!

Cardboard cut out, two dimensional characters and the dialogue just doesn't seem real. I just couldn't get into it.

Great opening to a new series. Wonderful characters from previous series in a new setting. Tense, gut wrenching story with plenty of action and plenty of suspects. Enjoy this suspense filled story. Looking forward to the next adventure.

About the author

Tikiri Herath is the multiple award-winning author of international crime thrillers and murder mystery novels.


Tikiri has a bachelor's degree from the University of Victoria, Canada, and a master's degree from the Solvay Business School in Brussels, Belgium. For almost two decades, she worked in risk management in the intelligence and defense sectors, including in the Canadian Federal Government and at NATO in Europe and North America.


Tikiri’s an adrenaline junkie who has rock climbed, bungee jumped, rode on the back of a motorcycle across Quebec, flown in an acrobatic airplane upside down, and parachuted solo.


When she's not plotting another thriller scene or planning an adrenaline-filled trip, you’ll find her baking in her kitchen with a glass of red Shiraz and vintage jazz playing in the background.


An international nomad and fifth-culture kid, she now calls Canada home.
