Goodreads Blurb
A dark, suspenseful new thriller about the mysteries of fate, the unbreakable bond of siblings, and a notorious serial killer who was said to know the future.
Growing up in a beautiful house in the English countryside, Katie Shaw lived a charmed life. At the cusp of graduation, she had big dreams, a devoted boyfriend, and a little brother she protected fiercely. Until the day a violent stranger changed the fate of her family forever.
Years later, still unable to live down the guilt surrounding what happened to her brother, Chris, and now with a child of her own to protect, Katie struggles to separate the real threats from the imagined. Then she gets the phone call: Chris has gone missing and needs his big sister once more.
Meanwhile, Detective Laurence Page is facing a particularly gruesome crime. A distinguished professor of fate and free will has been brutally murdered just hours after firing his staff. All the leads point back to two old cases: the gruesome attack on teenager Christopher Shaw, and the despicable crimes of a notorious serial killer who, legend had it, could see the future.
My Review: 4 out of 5 stars
If you could see the future, would you use it for the good of humanity, or would you use it to bring evil into the world? A frightening and twisted story that will have you guessing until the last moment. A family secret is so disturbing you will be utterly shocked. Two brothers will change the course of each other’s lives. A serial killer predicted the future and wrote his horrifying visions in a notebook, a book that still exists, and people wanted to get their hands on it. This story has a strong family bond, revenge, a frightening twist of fate, and a family connection you won’t see coming. It starts off slow, but once it picks up you’ll be blown away by the twists.
