Kendra Elliot recommends
thumb
The Wrong Woman (2022)
(Kendall Beck, book 1)
Leanne Kale Sparks
"This is a killer of a novel. Fresh, fast, and fascinating."
thumb
The Hive (2021)
Gregg Olsen
"Die-hard Gregg Olsen fans will love The Hive; new readers will become fans. Olsen deftly guides the reader through the pages, cranking up the suspense as long-held secrets rise to the surface. The result is compulsively page turning as Olsen keeps the reader’s mind buzzing in suspense. He hooks the reader as a dark crime from the past collides with a crime from the present."

Blink of an Eye (2021)
(Kendra Michaels, book 8)
Iris Johansen and Roy Johansen
"This creative duo always delivers gripping suspense!."
