    About this ebook

    A secret from their youth plunges three adult women into a deadly nightmare in this suspense thriller by three New York Times–bestselling authors.

    NO WARNING

    In the photograph, three teenaged girls splash in the lake on a sweltering summer evening. Shiloh, Kat, and Ruth are unaware of the man who spies on them from the woods. They have no idea how their lives will be changed by the brutal violence that follows—and the vow of secrecy they take.

    CAN PREPARE YOU

    Fifteen years later, Ruth and Shiloh have both returned to Prairie Creek, Wyoming, where Kat is deputy sheriff. Though they’ve tried to leave their shared past behind, each has the feeling that someone is lurking in the shadows. When a local girl vanishes, Kat is convinced there’s a connection to that long-ago night. But as the friends unite to find the missing teenager, a killer sends a chilling message.

    FOR A KILLER’S VENGEANCE

    He’s still there. And he hasn’t forgotten. For so long he’s made do with other victims, but they can’t compare to the ones who got away. The ones who keep searching for him, blind to the terrifying truth that they are not the hunters, but his prey . . .

    Praise for Sinister

    “This collaborative novel has all the tension and suspense that Jackson fans expect. The web of family ties and secrets creates a strong plot. Readers who enjoy shows like Criminal Minds will find the serial killer satisfyingly scary.” —RT Book Reviews

For so long he’s made do with other victims, but they can’t compare to the ones who got away. The ones who keep searching for him, blind to the terrifying truth that they are not the hunters, but his prey . My Views:The prologue was excellent and frankly it's what kept me reading. I thought that eventually we would get back to the missing girls and we did, but we had to go through a lot of romance and things that didn't really make the story live up to it's description or the way it started out. Two other authors besides Lisa Jackson had a hand in the writing so maybe that accounts for some of the way the story jumped around. There was so much that could have been done with the story line that started 15 years ago...the missing girls in the present...and the woman that we kept seeing in the cabin that had been held prisoner for years, without all the other stuff. Can't say that I didn't like the book but it wasn't one of my favorites by any means.

      Three teenage girls escape a sexual predator but choose not to report the incident even though several other girls have gone missing. Fast forward 15 years and one body shows up, another girl goes missing, and this time the 3 who escaped originally are being targeted again. Written by 3 authors, the story started strong and then got boring. So much less than what I was hoping for.
