A Dark and Secret Place by Jen Williams
4.0

A Dark and Secret Place is a psychological thriller that had me near terrified to read this late at night. The story itself is very interesting and had me intrigued the whole way through. I will say there were some parts I did find uncomfortable and some instances I was confused as to what some of the plotlines had to do with the story in general, but I think the author was able to tie up the loose ends near the end of the novel. Overall, this book was really intriguing and it was a good spooky read.

Heather returns to her late mother's house after learning that her mother has committed suided. In hopes to figure out as to why her mother killed herself, Heather finds letters between her mother and the notorious Red Wolf killer, who has been behind bars for the majority of Heather’s life. As she learns more about her mother's past and has the opportunity to meet with Michael Reeve, the famous Red Wolf Killer, tensions rise as a copycat killer emerges from the shadows. Heather must do everything she can to figure out why her mother was associating with Michael and if she can stop the copycat killer, even if it means returning to the place where it all started.

I want to thank NetGalley and Crooked Lane Books for providing me with an ARC of this book. Publication Date : June 8th, 2021
