* Dead Run *
Erica Spindler’s Dead Run
A lucid Beast, a beaten and ruined man, the never-ending search for a sister, an ex cop’s sorted past, young love, a mysterious, deadly and luring teen cult, a confused and aged priest, and a garden…all combine to create a plot that is sure to capture your curiosity, nerves, and make your pulse quicken! Liz stops at nothing to find her sister after a mysterious phone message and a series of reasons why that don’t add up in her own mind. She drops everything to solve the disappearance and loses and gains more than she ever expected to.
I was hooked within the words of every page and was ever-impressed with the way it all unfolded. It was so ooey gooey and captivating with all the killings, the characters, and the setting believed to be paradise, but proved to be everything but. Tantalizing read!

Pg, 266- ‘I used to shower after being int he room with him. The evil…it was like it oozed out of him. ‘
