“A chilling and intricate web…spectacularly entertaining.”~Kristen Mae, bestselling author of UnderdogA kidnapped child. A detective on the edge. And a suicide that’s anything but.“Little Greggie” Boyle was the amazing reappearing child—a boy kidnapped and returned to his parents after five years in captivity. So what would make him take his own life? That’s the question hanging over Detective … life? That’s the question hanging over Detective Petrosky’s head.
It seems straightforward: the teenager was found suspended from the rafters in the foyer of his parents’ home, a rope around his neck. No signs of struggle. No note, though that isn’t uncommon despite what Hollywood says—those movie nitwits don’t know real crime from their left elbows.
But something is wrong. The victim’s parents are stonewalling the police, and Gregory’s brother is cagey—even a little creepy. None of them seem interested in finding out what drove Gregory to kill himself. Or maybe they know something Petrosky doesn’t. Then forensic evidence turns the case on its head: the boy was drugged. The death wasn’t a suicide at all. Perhaps the kidnappers came back to make sure he stayed quiet…permanently.
As the investigation continues, a darker pattern of abductions begins to emerge. Gregory wasn’t the only child taken, and it appears the kidnapper is cleaning house—are any of the other victims still alive? One thing seems clear: Petrosky and his partner aren’t just hunting a killer; they’re looking for more bodies. If they don’t hurry, the man who murdered Gregory Boyle will rip other children from their families—kids who will never again come home.
And more dead children, especially on the anniversary of his daughter’s grisly murder, is more than Detective Petrosky can handle. He needs to catch the killer and ensure no more children fall prey to this maniac before he loses his own tenuous grasp on sanity.
Fiendishly clever, unique, and replete with twists and turns that keep readers glued to the pages, Imposter is a fast-paced crime thriller in the vein of Sidney Sheldon, Tana French, and Dean Koontz’s Jane Hawk series.

Five Stars
Imposter is the seventh book in the Ash Park series by Meghan O’Flynn. Although these book can be read as standalone, I would highly recommend you read them in order. Ms. O’Flynn is really a master at giving us a brilliant psychological thriller. The twists and turns will have you wondering how Meghan comes up with the plots for her books. This is the best book in the series so far. Detective Petrosky is back, looking into a suicide that is not really a suicide. Just when you think you know who the killer is, BAM, there is another twist. I love how this series makes me think. I do have to say that this series is not for the feint of heart. It is at times gruesome and often disturbing. Twisted minds are common and really graphic. It is the perfect series for those that love to catch monsters.
Imposter is the 7th book in the Ash Park crime thriller series by Meghan O’Flynn. It is the first time I had read any of this author’s work. I used to read a lot in this genre but had neglected it recently. The blurb of this book had me intrigued so I decided to give it a go. What I got was a fantastically well written crime thriller that had me gripped from the very beginning and kept it’s hooks in tight right up to the very end.
In this book Ed Petrosky starts with dealing with the suicide of Gregory Boyle, a teenage boy who had previously been kidnapped for 5 years and had returned home 2 years previously. What transpired from this was an intricate tale of murder, fraud, intrigue, kidnapping and so much more.
As well as dealing with this case, it is approaching the birthday of Ed’s daughter who had been murdered previously and this case is bringing back so many memories of his dead daughter. Ed had hit the bottle hard after his daughter’s death and in this book we see him fight the demon of drink calling out to him at every opportunity.
This book is fast paced and flows very well. Just when you think you have worked out what is going on, the author throws a massive curveball and the story goes in a different direction, keeping you on your toes.
I’m so glad that I chose to read this book as it’s given me a thirst for reading more in this genre.
I have yet to pick up an Meghan O’Flynn novel that I have not adored completely! She manages to take her readers on a fast, thrilling, and twisted ride with each of her Ash Park novels. Each book is written with recurring characters and some overlapping case details. I would recommend that you read them in order and all of them, but I am told they are able to be read as stand alones as well. Imposter is the seventh book in the series and it feels like saying that should come with a this series is getting old type feeling, but I can assure you there is not one dull or boring and repetitive moment in the entire book let alone the series. In Imposter we find our favorite troubled detective, Petrosky as he is once again faced with a ruthless and violent killer. The case will force him to face pieces of himself all while trying to race against time to keep the inhabitants of Ash Park and his own loved ones safe from harm. I can’t wait to see what could come next and if we will get more of Ash Park from Ms. O’Flynn.

Sit down and get ready for a thriller!!!!
Meghan O’Flynn did it again. She is one of my favorite authors. Her stories are always intense and mind blowing. Her character development and plot lines are out of this world. The words fly off the page. I would pay close attention to the smallest details because you may miss an important clue. This story took me on a wild roller coaster ride. Every time I thought I knew what was going on, here comes a curveball. Detective Petrocky is with us again. This time Little Greggie who was taken and reappeared to his parents, had hung himself. There was no evidence that it was a suicide. Detective Petrocky is investigating Little Greggie’s suicide there was others who were taken and reappeared only to comitt suicide. Can Detective Petrocky find out what is going on? Will there be more children taken and alive? Will there be a higher body count that Detetive Petrocky cannot stop from happening? I highly recommend this book. If you like thrillers this book is for you.
Imposter: An Ash Park Novel is book seven in this series by Meghan O’Flynn. Normally this far into a series I have fallen off or everything becomes stagnant. O’Flynn kills it with this book.

This has twists and turns which kept me on my toes while reading. Detective Petrosky is a gritty seasoned detective who has seen it all and even he is unsure of what is going on. I enjoy these books because there is a sense of urgency to get to the bottom of what is going on which a lot of crime and mysteries forget.

Five stars
Meghan O’Flynn gives me the creeps with every book I read. They’re disturbingly good. I mean the while time I was reading this book I was under my blanket. The story just sent chills down my spine. If you’ve read any of her other books you would understand where I’m coming from. The words jump off of the pages at you. Making you feel and experience every detail. The main character has been through so much. His pain is there with every struggle to keep straight. There’s no way you can not read this and not experience his suffering. I really enjoy this authors work. I haven’t been so thrilled in forever. I love the care and attention to detail that the author puts in the story. I felt like I was riding in the car with Petrosky. That I was there when that boy experienced all his pain. A must read.
Imposter: An Ash Park Novel (Volume 7) by Meghan O’Flynn is a suspense thriller at it’s finest. Wow what a tangled web Meghan has given us with this book in the series. Dare I say it is the best yet. You never know where the story will go and being able to put the book down is not an option because you need to know. You need to know what is hiding in the shadows, what sort of madness will be encountered, just how dark are the monsters. Well if you want to know as well get your copy now.
This one starts off with the action from the gate. The kidnapping of “Little Greggie” as the mystery of his suicide grips the detective working on his case. The poor kid’s family are an odd bunch holding out on the cops as the detective discovers the boy was drugged. But why and why did they want the kid to stay quiet permanently? Just as Det. Petrosky is getting closer to solving the case, new abductions begin to take place and new kids are victims of this kidnapper. The detective and his partner are in a race not only against time but they’re looking for a killer and the bodies of his victims!

This book had me hooked from the synopsis alone. I read each page and couldn’t put it down! Action-packed from the first chapter on down. This original story from the author is addictive to the reader. Entertaining as the story grips you to stay tuned. This book is a page-turner with unpredictable twists and turns.
Imposter is volume seven in the Ash Park series.
Suspense. Intrigue. Mystery. A roller coaster of twists and turns. It’s everything you would expect from a book by Meghan O’Flynn. Imposter is a stay-up-all-night, unputdownable reading adventure. I mean, who can sleep when there is a mystery to solve??? (Seriously, this is not a book you can read in short spurts – make sure you have a good chunk of time available).
Great world building, and characters with depth bring this story to life.
Definitely a spectacular read!!!!
Imposter is the seventh novel in the Ash Park novel series by Meghan O’ Flynn. This is my first novel by this author.
Detective Petrosky is called when a boy appears to kill himself. The family is acting strange; not wanting to help the police which send alarms in his head.
As he investigates further, he notices other abductions.
I read this novel well into the night and once I finished I had a hard time falling asleep. With so many twists and turns and gritty revelations, I don’t wanna say this book scared me but I feel like it’s the right word.
In the future when I read thriller books, I’ll make sure to read them during the day. I look forward to reading more by this author and reading how this series started.
Imposter: An Ash Park Novel by Meghan O’Flynn is the first of the series I have read. This book is an amazing read, filled with all the things you want in mystery! Petrosky is a detective you can’t help but love and root for, despite all of his grumpiness. I have to give Meghan O’Flynn a pat on the back, for keeping me up all night to finish this story. Every time I thought I know what was going to happen a twist was waiting for me. So buckle up, because Imposter is a rollercoaster of a ride!
5 Stars
Imposter is the seventh book in the gripping Ash Park Series by Meghan O’Flynn. Ms. O’Flynn’s ability to spin an intense thriller never ceases to amaze me- the series is an intricately woven and thrilling showcase of her writing skills. I have read each book, believing that there would be no way for her to top the previous book/s- but she ups the ante each time as her stories just seem to get better and better as the series evolves. I have said this many times, but the amount of tension, suspense, and clever twists that she is able to create in her work/s, makes for quite a thrilling and mind-blowing read.
While this book could be read as a standalone- there are recurring characters and snippets of backstory and other information which knowing would give you a much bigger picture and provide an even better perspective of the character/s and overall storyline, making for a better reading experience for you. Plus, the entire series is fantastic- so you really have nothing to lose by reading them all!
Detective Petrosky is faced with another challenge in this book- another murder kicks off an investigation which will test his limits on all fronts. The past and present collide- threatening to unravel everything, while dredging up the painful memories of his daughters’ murder. He is determined to find the killer before anymore children are ripped away from their families. What happens makes for quite an intense read.
As expected from Ms. O’Flynn, there was plenty of darkness, surprising developments, nail-biting intensity, shock, and awe. All I could do was hang on to the edge of my seat as I was swept along for the ride.
Another thrilling instalment!
Thank you, Ms. O’Flynn!!!
I give Imposter: An Ash Park Novel (Volume 7) by Meghan O’Flynn, 5 stars.
*This review may contain spoilers from previous books in the series..*
Wow. This yet another gripping fascination of a book from a thrilling series. It grabs you by the proverbial balls and takes you on a wild ride you will never see coming. The story has so many twists and turns, I was dizzy at the end of it but wanted to get back on the ride again. The characters are incredible too. They have each gone through so much, they are definitely not your cardboard placeholders just there to help the story along. This book is so much more than just the mystery of finding out what happened and who did it. The author does a wonderful job of throwing in so many subplots while keeping the book clean and interesting.
While this book may have some parts that may be a little too much for the lighthearted, this is a spectacular addition to the series and highly recommended to those who enjoy a criminal thriller. This book can be read as a standalone (in my opinion), but you will understand and feel so much more if you read the previous books in the series first.
Absolutely riveting. I cannot get my brain ready for each story she tells and I cannot begin to imagine how she even crafts each story. But each book is a masterful suspense-filled web of intrigue. A delicate balance of mystery, anticipation, and organized chaos, this latest addition to the Ash Park universe kept me holding my breath the entire book. Loved every page. Masterful!
Wow! This is eye opening. I am almost speechless about what to write. The story just really…really makes you think. I was sickened as well as freaked out on numerous occasions. Then something would happen that would make me laugh. Usually it’s a crazy Petrosky comment or action. Even Jackson a couple times a some good zingers.
This isn’t my first story by this author. Ed is getting back into being Detective, sleuthing
and annoying suspects. I love his go getter take no crap attitude. Jackson smoothes out his rough edges. Morrison is tough to replace but Jackson is getting there.
This is a great thrill ride. One that will shock and surprise you.
