About this listen

A #1 Wall Street Journal bestseller.

Every time Gwen closed her eyes, she saw him in her nightmares. Now her eyes are open, and he’s not going away.

Gwen Proctor won the battle to save her kids from her ex-husband, serial killer Melvin Royal, and his league of psychotic accomplices. But the war isn’t over. Not since Melvin broke out of prison. Not since she received a chilling text...

You’re not safe anywhere now.

Her refuge at Stillhouse Lake has become a trap. Gwen leaves her children in the protective custody of a fortified, well-armed neighbor. Now, with the help of Sam Cade, brother of one of Melvin’s victims, Gwen is going hunting. She’s learned how from one of the sickest killers alive.

But what she’s up against is beyond anything she feared—a sophisticated and savage mind game calculated to destroy her. As trust beyond her small circle of friends begins to vanish, Gwen has only fury and vengeance to believe in as she closes in on her prey. And sure as the night, one of them will die.

This is the second on the Stillhouse lake trilogy, it is all very thrilling. I did find the son mildly irritating but I suppose eleven year old boys are mildly irritating! I do wish ot wasn't over, my fault could not stop listening.

Exciting story

A great sequel to Stillhouse Lake. I enjoyed the different perspectives of the story, and the performances were good. I'd have liked more from the ending, but still found it very engaging.

Gripping

Brilliant book but you need to take book 1 first to avoid any confusion. I was hooked and listened to 1 & 2 over 3 days only stopping for meals. Will be downloading book 3 soon.

I read the third novel first which was excellent followed by the first which I read in one day. The reviews for this were not as enthusiastic but I decided I would make my own mind up. I have come to the conclusion that some people enjoy finding fault even in non existent areas. Strange how folk find their pleasures but at least the miserable critics are not serial killers. I loved this novel as much as the other two. The narrators were also excellent. Now I shall read the third again before treating myself to the fourth in the series.

An excellent action thriller series

Gwen Proctor saved her children from the clutches of their father, Melvin Royal a prolific serial killer, but now her ex-husband has escaped from prison. She receives a text telling her she is not safe anywhere now and she knows she can't sit and wait for Melvin to find her. Gwen knows she has to end this once and for all and leaves her children in the protective custody of one of few people she trusts, Gwen goes on the hunt for her ex with Sam Cade, brother of one of Melvin's victims.

I had high expectations after Stillhouse Lake and I wasn't disappointed. Okay, so it wasn't quite as good, but the format was slightly different. The book is told from four different points of view: Gwen's, Lanny's (Gwen's daughter), Connor's (Gwen's son) and Sam Cade's. It took a bit of getting used to switching between characters - and I definitely preferred Gwen's chapters. Though with this format, you get to see the effects that this life is having on the children, which we didn't get in Stillhouse Lake. Lanny just wants to be a normal teenager and Connor is struggling with the fact that his dad is a serial killer.

It is a fast-paced thriller and the tension built throughout the book.

There was more to the book than I expected and it turned into more than a hunt for Melvin - I was surprised at how nasty things got.

I can't wait to see what happens next!

Great sequel!

Good, enjoyable and exciting follow up, although I found the narrator reading Gwen's part sounded strangely robotic at times. Otherwise all good.

Exciting

This story follows closely from its predecessor. It's fast paced and gripping. At times it was hard to put down as you are presented with some real cliffhangers. At times I wasn't sure if some of the characters behaviour was entirely consistent with their backstory. There were also some lines of the story that weren't fully explained that could have been usefully expanded. Curious about how the next book in the series could be developed from where the story leaves us.

Gripping sequel.
