Taking readers inside the cat-and-mouse psychology of a killer and the assistant district attorney who must catch him, this thrilling fiction debut from bestselling author Trey Gowdy and celebrated author Christopher Greyson will keep you guessing until the very last page.

Outstanding

Not only do I greatly admire Trey Gowdy for the gentleman he is, his book is wonderful. The main character reminds me of the writer himself. Minimum violence, no foul language. A really good story of loss and pain, of recovery and doing the right thing. A lot of the story is based on his experience as a prosecutor and how it take a toll on the family. The ending invites book two! I’ll be waiting!

Twists and turns plus the next memory coming

Great mystery with compelling characters. Can’t wait for the next book. Author does a great job creating suspense.

Great Story

The story has great twists and turns! Reads as good as any John Grisham book

Great story

Some of the narrator’s voices were cartoonish. Improperly pronounced appellate, Michelin and other words which was distracting.

Great storytelling. Lots of angles.

Twists and turns. Good story. Great character development. Likeable relatable protagonist. Worth the credits. Go for it.
