The Final Hunt

by Audrey J. Cole

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

GENRE: Thriller

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BLURB:

Alone in a hunting cabin, off-grid in an untamed wilderness. How does a marriage come to this?

After John disappeared while hunting—presumed dead from a bear attack—Cameron found the crime photos. His role in the recent Seattle serial murders was discovered. The media destroyed her reputation. She lost her dental practice, is on the brink of losing her home.

Everyone has a secret. But if her husband could hide the unimaginable from her, who’s to say he’s truly dead?

“What brings you so far from home?” the Alaska State Trooper had asked. The truth.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

EXCERPT TWO:

The detective stood in silence beside her with his arms folded, making her feel like a prisoner at her own house. She closed her eyes and pictured John’s victims. All eleven of them. She was married to a monster. She sipped her water, trying to ease the ache in her stomach. She wondered if the police would find evidence of more killings…under her own roof. It seemed unfathomable.

John could be distant at times, absorbed in his work. But she’d assumed it was his dedication to justice. She wondered how many nights she thought he was working late in the city when he was really strangling female high school teachers he’d been stalking for weeks.

Two investigators crossed the lawn and entered the over-sized garden shed Cameron and John had built to match the house. Cameron had always admired the quaint charm of the miniature white structure with blue trim. Until she watched an investigator emerge carrying evidence bags filled with rope and pruning shears. The second investigator followed, holding a shovel in her gloved hand.

Cameron’s breath caught at the sight of the evidence bags. Anxiety rose in her chest in a way she hadn’t felt in years. She took a gulp from her water, trying to flush the feeling away.

Her eyes followed the investigators until they were back inside the house. She stared at the garden shed again. It reminded her of the shed at her previous home, which lacked the magazine-cover charm of this one. Where she’d spent two miserable years of her life. Before she’d met John, and he’d made her feel alive again.

All these years being married to John, she thought she’d been the one with a secret.

MY BOOK REVIEW:

Absolutely WOW!!!

Audrey J. Cole is back with an all-new exciting, intriguing, thrilling adventure!!!

This book is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat as you delve into secrets, lies, and mysteries set in the beautiful Pacific Northwest!!!

This is one book I could NOT put down nor did I want to!!!  Audrey J. Cole has become a favorite author and this book only adds to the reasons I love her writing!!!

This is the fourth book I’ve read from the very talented writer, Audrey J. Cole and I honestly could not recommend her or her books enough!!!

Audrey’s writing only continues to improve, grow, and expand with each book!!  I know she will be an author I will continue to read over the years!!

While this book does isn’t part of the author’s famous Emerald City Book set-up this book still packs quite the investigative punch and ultimately delivers.

This particular book follows the main character Cameron, who suddenly learns that her recently deceased husband may not exactly be the man she thought he was.  When Cameron discovers photos of her husband committing the most unthinkable crime of murder, she is not only shocked and full of rage and disgust, but also begins to wonder if maybe her husband faked his death and is still out there.  One thing is for certain, Cameron is determined to find out for sure as she begins her trek out to Alaska looking for answers.  After news broke about Cameron’s husband’s extracurricular activities, Cameron lost everything – her reputation, her dental practice, her friends, so with nothing to lose Cameron sets out to find the truth.

I love the in-depth amount of research the author did while constructing this book.  It is clear she is very familiar and well-versed in the medical and criminal procedural practices. The author provided so much detail and such vivid descriptions it made the scenes easy to picture.  These particulars were so well-described they felt both realistic and authentic.

All in all, I really enjoyed reading this book and would absolutely recommend it!!  I think all thriller, mystery, suspense readers will like this book too!!  So, add it to your TBR List and get to reading - you won't be disappointed!!
