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 be-come 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 any-thing 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 book is suspenseful and has a great plot! I‘m really enjoying this series and am actually 1/2 done the third book 🙈 I can‘t wait to see what comes next!

🎧 Book 2 - just as good as book 1.

Gwen has saved her kids from their serial killer dad. He‘s in jail but his psychotic followers are on the loose & now so is he.

The son who never knew his dad is contacted by him and is torn between telling his mom & wanting to believe his dad.

Gwen leaves her kids & hunts the killer. The tables are turned. The twist is good. Only one of them will walk away alive.

Book 3 is on my June TBR.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2

WorldsOkayestStepMom I loved this entire series! It was so well written. 1y
Twainy @WorldsOkayestStepMom I‘m sad that I waited so long to read this! So far I‘m enjoying it! I‘ve got so many series/trilogies that I‘m chipping away at monthly. This is a fun one!! I love books where you‘re yelling at the characters … NOOOOO. And that son made me swear several times. LOL 1y

Wow! What a thriller! Gwen‘s haters start coming out of the woodwork, hunting her and her children down. Conner discovers a video that shows his mother helping her ex-husband torture and kill one of his victims. Did Gwen really help him? #SeriesLove2023 @Andrew65 @TheSpineView

Gwen‘s husband, Melvin, has escaped from prison. With the help of Sam Cade, Gwen is hunting for her husband. Will she be able to find him before he destroys her and her children?
Better than the first book. Characters are well-drawn. Plot leaves you on the edge of your seat. Ending makes you want to read the third book. Recommended.

This was as good as book one, and I absolutely had to know the answer to the cliffhanger. Even though there are more books in the series, these two are a unit. Don‘t expect to be okay with just the first. I didn‘t love the other characters voices, but the story needed them. And I love Gwen even more for her strength and resolve. Definitely kept me guessing.

Rachel Caine is an amazing author. I‘m so impressed with her ability to create one heck of a thriller. #2 in the series and Gwen is highly determined to find her ex-husband, the serial killer, who has escaped from prison. The story is told from multiple perspectives; Gwen, her children, and Sam (his sister was a victim). This book is packed with suspense, emotion, surprise. 5🌟 #MountTBR

This second book in the series was even better than the first! I really had a hard time putting it down. Dark and suspenseful, this one had me staying up until the wee hours of the morning just to keep reading. I‘m looking forward to the next one!

Really enjoyed the second installment of a this series. Was just as hair-raising as the first. I really liked how it we got to see things through all of the characters eyes in this book. Though someone definitely gave me a lot of anxiety throughout most of the book! (If you‘ve read it you‘ll know who I‘m talking about.) Only part that didn‘t really make sense was the fact that the neighbors go from hating Gwen to helping fix up her house???

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Yesterday I wrapped up the first book & said I wasn‘t sure if I was going to continue with this series (not because I didn‘t like it but because there are so many books out there to read). A few of you chimed in and said to read the next two. Well, I‘m glad I listened. 😊 Book 2 was really good & was action packed. Interested to see where book 3 takes things. I do think I‘m going to take a short break before continuing though.

This second book in the Stillhouse Lake series was a fast, anxious and sometimes gruesome ride as Gwen tries to finally save her family from a monster. That monster is her ex-husband, who has a vast network of people assisting him. There are a few twists that I didn‘t see coming. This is a solid thriller, and was very entertaining. The next book in the series comes out in April, and I‘ll definitely read it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

Before I moved to NYC, I'd come up to visit and stay with my uncle who lives a few blocks from Lincoln Center, so it became a spot that I enjoyed coming to read and people watch with tea and pan au chocolate while on vacation. Now I've lived here for about 4 years and it's still a spot I enjoy stopping to pull out a book when I'm in the area 😄 (and I'm LIVING for these pockets of warmish weather that tell me spring is around the corner 😆)

I really enjoyed Stillhouse Lake and it‘s intensity. I felt like I couldn‘t put it down. Killman Creek is a little bit different in that i feel like i have to push myself to read. I feel like I‘m not as invested and maybe it‘s because it‘s written differently? Stillhouse is from the perspective of Gwen Proctor only and this is told from many points of view. Gonna try to finish anyway 😎

Oh man! I flew through this one. I had such a fun time with Stillhouse Lake, and I think this one was even better. The alternating points of view really up the tension and I found this book hard to put down. April can‘t come soon enough, I wonder what Caine has in store for us.

This was a good follow up to Stillhouse Lake, I stayed up late to finish this one and here‘s to hoping I don‘t have any bad dreams tonight! I really enjoyed this one, and was pleased how it all wrapped up. I thought the author did a great job here with everything. It drug a little for me with the Connor / Brady storyline, but I understand what she was trying to do with it. Overall I am loving this series, and I can‘t wait for the third next year!

Excellent sequel. The author included chapters with different POVs than Gwen‘s and I liked that. The other characters were more developed as a result but the suspense was just as strong as the first book.
