About this listen

From TikTok sensation Lloyd Devereux Richards comes the heart-pounding story of FBI agent Christine Prusik as she attempts to unmask a serial killer who leaves a calling card with a terrifying connection to her own haunted past.

As the chief forensic anthropologist for the FBI’s Chicago field office, Christine Prusik has worked her fair share of bizarre cases. Yet this one trumps them all: a serial killer is strangling young women and dumping their bodies in the steep, forested ravines of southern Indiana.

With each victim, the killer leaves a calling card: a stone figurine carved like the spirit stones found among the native tribes of Papua New Guinea—the same tribes Prusik worked with a decade earlier while doing field research. The personal nature of the similarity is eerie and, frankly, terrifying; Prusik still carries trauma from her time in the field.

As the dark details continue to surface, Prusik has to wonder if the connection is real or if her nightmares have finally wormed their way into her waking life.

I like many people came across this book after hearing about the author and his daughter on tiktok. they both seem lovely and so I wanted to hear his story. overall I enjoyed the story, a little slow at parts and the romance felt a little rushed but still sweet. For the most part I enjoyed it. I felt like the investigating was minimal compared to the first person exploration. I'd love to read/listen to the next installment to see how his characters, story and writing progress. the best to this lovely author and his family. I hope his third novel gets published soon!!+ 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Overall 3.7 stars.

So many stories have been told that it's hard to come by an original one. Now I'll wait for this book to become a movie, it's has all the ticks of a good thriller.

As a mortician and criminology/psychology student, this is the only genre I read. I saw this on TikTok by Lloyds daughter. I was not disappointed, it was different to the usual titles, and barely predictable. A bit of romance for good measure. Good job. I will read the next one for sure.

Waiting for the next one…
