“When Love is betrayed, there is nothing to contain the demons.”

I have read pretty much all of Mary Burtons books so i was really looking forward to reading this one.

It is down as a standalone book but I’m sure you will agree after reading it that the potential and the amount of interest already a follow-up book would be highly anticipated.I love the characters in the book, they are well written and very likeable right from the get go.
The story line is faultless even if the “Who done it” ends up being fairly obvious but it doesn’t take away any of the drama and tension of the ending!

I would have read this in 1 sitting but my ME decided otherwise, but as soon as i had rested up a bit i was start back on the case 🙂

It is a real page turner and the fast pace continues from start to finish, peppered throughout with tragedy, heartache, sinister events and of course a good splash of romance!

FBI agent Kate Hayden finds herself playing a deadly game of chess with a killer who destroyed her life and family 17 years ago.
Homicide detective Theo Mazur is a fairly new member of the team in the San Antonio police force but is no rookie when it comes to the job.

A murder takes place on part of the interstate and it has all the hallmarks of murders committed by the serial killer known as the Samaritan. It was FBI agent Kate Hayden that brought him to justice and he is currently safely locked behind bars on death row.
Did Kate catch the wrong killer or is this the work of a copycat killer?

Detective Theo Mazur calls Kate away from her own on going hunt for a different serial killer who likes to abduct women and bury them in coffins. Kate had saved the last victim but the killer is still on the loose.

Now she must try to find whoever is behind the murdered woman who was shot in the interstate, it certainly seems to be the work of a copycat killer but then another body turns up killed in the same way as a different case Kate had previously worked on.
Now it is personal and whoever is behind the murders has made sure they have Kate and Theo’s undivided attention.

The partnership between Kate and Theo works really well and it was really great getting some of their back stories. It is through those glimpses into Kate’s past that draw you to her and what defines her character.

As i said at the start, i would love to hear more from both Kate and Theo and what the future holds for them both.

A suspense novel of the highest order from a master of her craft.

A 911 call by a distraught man, he’s been stabbed, his wife and daughter both abducted by a masked intruder, their bedroom is awash with blood. And so begins the hunt for the two missing females.

After a tip off to a disgraced reporter, Nikki McDonald, the discovery of a human bones has Special Agent Zoe Spencer putting her skills to use in the attempts to identify the victim. With no DNA available due to the bones having been burnt and the teeth removed, Zoe is the only hope now into a positive identification. And it is that identification that connects the two cases together. The young lady that Zoe’s reconstruction identifies was a woman who had gone missing years before, the sister to the woman that has been abducted by the masked intruder.

As Zoe and Alexandria homicide detective William Vaughan join forces and cases they begin delving into the Foster family, what actually happened that day Hadley and Skylar were taken, and the connection to her sister, Marsha Prince, who disappeared eighteen years prior.

This is the second book in the criminal profiler series featuring Zoe Spencer and her masterful talent of facial recreation sculptures. Thankfully it reads as a standalone as I haven’t read the first book, Hide and Seek, as of yet as I was unaware it was the second in the series! Book 1 has now been added to my tbr pile! The relationship between Spencer and Vaughan was as good as the plot, both worked unbelievably well and as always Burton writes a mean seduction scene! As to the who done it element, I had that figured out well before the reveal, however it didn’t take any of the enjoyment out of the reading.

If you have read a Mary Burton book before then you will know what to expect and won’t be disappointed. If you are new to her books then this one is a good place to start and it will have you digging into the back collection of her earlier work.

Murders, mysteries, secrets and lies, add to that a light touch of romance and you have the ingredients that have come together to bring you Mary Burton’s new novel, I See You.

I See You will be published on 08 October 2019 and is available to preorder now. It will also be available to read for free with Amazon’s Kindle Unlimited.

First, in a new series, Burn You Twice is a scary tale of a twisted arsonist and his obsession with fire. No spoilers, but this plot of intertwining relationships, jealousy, and murder is suspenseful and mesmerizing. I devoured it!
