Why read it?
1 author picked A Cry in the Dark as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This was a new author for me, and she hooked me within the first few chapters. I didn't realize I was reading the second book in the series first, but it didn't matter.
She writes like a Criminal Minds episode. There were so many twists and turns. I kept trying to guess the bad guy and failed! It was downright psychologically scary. I loved the biblical elements woven throughout. It wasn't so gruesome that I wouldn't want to share this book with my daughter or other family members.
I love a great psychological thriller, and this had all the feels…
