Katie is the sister of the convicted serial killer known as The Shock Killer.
After being persecuted by the townsfolk and police because they did not believe she knew nothing about the murders, Katie left town and became a virtual recluse.
Now it appears that somehow, even though still in jail, her brother has found her and there is a copycat killer on the prowl.
This short novel will have you shivering right along with the main character. Katie Boles left her hometown after her brother was convicted of being a serial killer. She was mortified and scared. So off to a cabin in the woods which was near a small town. She kept mostly to herself.
The came the night when she heard something outside. She went to investigate thinking it was probably an animal–what she found was a body–stretched out in her driveway! She immediately called the police.
Then she found another body on her property-the body of her groundskeeper-now she was petrified and who could blame her!
It was determined what killed the men–but not who did it. Maybe in the next in this series we will find out!
This was a fantastic read. I highly recommend the series, however, it is best to read the 5 books one after the other. This series could have been written in one book since each book is about 4 or 5 chapters. This was a wonderful well written plot and story line that had me engaged from the start. Love the well-defined characters and found them believable. I hope there are more books in this series.
Katie’s brother was convicted of being a serial killer who ended up in prison. While in prison, a copycat killer started killing people who knew her and her brother. As Katie tries to call up her memories of her brother and his friends to help locate the identity of the next victim, killings continue to occur. It seems the copycat killer was always one step ahead of everyone. There were twists and turns; uncertainty who to believe, and a relationship starting to build between Katie and the sheriff.
Katie Boles lives alone and doesn’t really want to interact with anyone. One night she hears a strange noise and goes out to check it. There is a dead man at the end of her driveway where she couldn’t drive out. She calls the Sheriff’s office. They are immediately on their way. First on scene was Sheriff Adam Baker. He then calls for backup. Dr. Henry Jackson an immunologist and Dr. Patten the medical examiner show up. Katie has already asked the sheriff if the man died from anaphylactic shock. Seven years ago there had been a serial killer in Bluffton that only killed men but he did it by anaphylactic shock. When he was caught it was Katie’s brother Clayton. But once they were grown they rarely interacted. The Sheriff asked Katie to come to his office the following morning to answer some questions. Her Gardner Kevin was there working when she left. When she got back she didn’t see him, and she knew it normally took him longer to finish his work than the time she had been gone. She decided to call him but she could hear his phone ringing in her back yard. When she got there he was dead and it looked like anaphylactic shock. She called the Sheriff and thee same team came out. Did they now have a copy cat serial killer in Moss Creek? This is a good book that anyone who likes this genre would love. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because it was too short and ended abruptly. I will have to check out the next book in the series.
Short story with a lot happening in a few pages. Each book in the series will continue on to the next book. The woman in it is the sister of a convicted serial killer. I received an ARC in exchange for a review.
The story continues and is now on book 4-5 SHOCK the Chaos. We don’t know who is doing the killings or if her brother was guilty. Getting close to the conclusion and finding out who and why. I am receiving ARC for my honest review. Book 5 Shock the Capture is 5 stars. Read it to find out who the killer is. I know and was right for a change.
Shock is well-written and engaging. It made me want to keep reading to find out what happened. It does end on a cliff-hanger, which is not my personal preference; however, the rest of the story is a captivating short novella.
