Dead Memories by Angela Marsons
4.0

Kim Stone has put away her fair share of bad guys over the years and has acquired many enemies throughout her criminal investigations. Now someone is out for revenge and Kim's life is on the line.

In Dead Memories Kim comes face to face with crimes recreating the most traumatic experiences of her past. Kim must reveal more of herself to her team (and us!) than she feels comfortable with. All eyes are on her as Kim faces some of her darkest demons. The team races against time as they try to uncover whose heart holds so much hatred for Kim that they are constructing elaborate murders to gain her attention, with the end game being Kim's own death.

As the team reviews their suspect list, we revisit some of their most compelling crimes and criminals. This is definitely not a book to start off with but for tried and true fans - it was an absolute treat! I loved how this new team is finding its way and how much more we learn about Kim's past. Her strength, complexity, endurance and her ability to rise above the atrocities she suffered in her childhood are such a huge part of what drives this series. For fans of the series be prepared for some heartache. It's impossible not to feel for Kim, even as she tries to compartmentalize her pain.

I honestly can not say enough about this series. It never disappoints! If you are considering giving it a try - GO FOR IT! 10 books in and it just keeps getting better! Thank you Angela Marsons, Bookouture and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review an arc of this book. Now to impatiently await book 11!
