"Did the blood of the victims buried here cry out to God like the blood of Abel had?"
When park ranger Emily Davis stumbles in the woods while looking for a missing hiker, what she initially assumed was a rock, turned out to be something far more sinister; a human skull. Detective Wade Brunner shows up to investigate the grisly scene, causing Emily's heart to nearly stop for the second time in one day; he had captured her young heart all those years ago, only to toss it aside . . . now all grown up, and here in her space. Had he forgotten all about her? She thought . . . even assumed . . . that he had.
Emily Davis. How she could still take his breath away . . . except that her current demeanor didn't exactly exude excitement over seeing him again. In fact, she seemed very cozy with another ranger. Fine . . . they had a job to do, solving what was probably going to be a murder . . . except it turned into much, much more; both on professional and personal levels. Hickory Run State Park had buried its closely guarded secrets in graves that begged to be pursued and exposed . . . like yesterday.
Do Emily and Wade risk a second chance at love? How many women are going to die before a serial killer is brought to justice? Where to begin. How will it end?
A quick, meaningful and somewhat intense-at-times story that is attention grabbing without speeding past the human element, purposefully nourishing the reader with faith lessons along the trail to truth, for "trusting God with all your heart" is "easier to say than do."
