Detective Carina Kincaid has never seen a more horrific murder than that of college student Angie Vance. Gruesomely killed after being raped for two days, Angie's body was discarded on a San Diego beach. Carina immediately looks to Angie's ex-boyfriend, Steve Thomas. While he seems like a perfectly nice guy on the outside, Carina knows that looks can be deceiving. She is immediately suspicious of Steve. Not only is he much older than 18 year older Angie, but he also had a restraining order taken out by the victim, two days before she was kidnapped. When Sheriff Nick Thomas, Steve's younger brother shows up to support Steve, Carina is immediately attracted to the rugged Sheriff. When Carina realizes they may have a serial killer on her hands, she is grateful to have Nick around, as his knowledge may prove invaluable to the case.
Nick Thomas has his own demons to fight. After almost dying at the hands of the Bozeman Butcher, Nick is scarred. Not only physically, but emotionally as well. Losing the woman he loved, on top of having to watch a woman be raped repeatedly, Nick knows he'll never be the same. When Steve calls to ask Nick for help, he doesn't hesitate. While he does want to help his brother, Nick also has an important decision to make; whether or not he should run for re-election. Arriving in San Diego, Nick is immediately drawn to the prickly Detective.
Brennan does a fine job of combining romance and suspense in this top notch thriller. Giving the reader insight into the killer's mind, you will immediately be drawn into the book. As Carina and Nick race against time to stop a killer that escalates by the day, they are both drawn to each other more in a way that is completely unexpected to them both. Don't miss this engrossing novel.
Summary of Speak No Evil: A NovelSilence is deadly.
The murder of eighteen-year-old Angie Vance was exceptionally vile?her mouth was sealed with glue, an obscenity scrawledwas across her skin, and she was suffocated in a garbage bag. The killing seems personal, so police detective Carina Kincaid focuses her efforts on the victim?s much older ex-boyfriend, Steve Thomas. But without physical evidence, Carina can?t make a collar or a case. She also can?t stop Sheriff Nick Thomas, the prime suspect?s brother, from conducting his own unwelcome investigation.
Though Nick is still scarred and unsteady from a recent confrontation with a serial killer, he?s determined to prove his brother?s innocence. But his confidence is shaken when he learns of Steve?s dark side, and when a friend of the murdered girl meets a similarly gruesome fate. With no time to lose, Carina and Nick work together to trap a psychopath, before another unlucky woman faces an unspeakable end.
Evil has spoken. Now see what it can do.
