another serial killer on the loose…It’s almost Christmas time and Jenna， Kane & team are getting into the spirit of the season when residents start disappearing。 This serial killer is very smart…and unassuming and you wouldn’t guess his identity！ Another fast paced story in Black Rock Falls。

This is the first book of the Detectives Kane and Alton series that I've read。 It's already book 18 and it's called Now You See Me by D。K。 Hood。 It was published yesterday and I received it from Bookouture via Netgalley。 The search for a missing bartender is widened when another person vanishes into thin air。 In another town a complete family has gone missing。 Are the case connected and will they be able to stop people from going missing？ To be honest， I just couldn't get into the book。 Perhaps This is the first book of the Detectives Kane and Alton series that I've read。 It's already book 18 and it's called Now You See Me by D。K。 Hood。 It was published yesterday and I received it from Bookouture via Netgalley。 The search for a missing bartender is widened when another person vanishes into thin air。 In another town a complete family has gone missing。 Are the case connected and will they be able to stop people from going missing？ To be honest， I just couldn't get into the book。 Perhaps it's because it's only the first one I've read in a series of 18 books， but it just didn't grab me。 There were too many main characters which made it quite confusing and hard to focus。 The dialogue at times was a bit weird and made no sense - like when a horrific scene was found a character smiles widely - it doesn't make sense。 The writing itself came across as a bit hastily done and should have gone through a check first for fluency。 The story was also quite predictable and it took away anything suspenseful whatsoever。 I would not recommend this book as a standalone。 Perhaps it works when you've read the other books， but that doesn't take away the fact that the writing was rather subpar。 2/5⭐ 。。。more

People are going missing around Black Rock Falls。 They suspect a serial killer is operating in the area but he is leaving few clues。 No bodies are found and the victims are all different ages and sexes。 Can they find him before more people disappear。 This is the first book I have read by this author and it won’t be the last。 I was on the edge of my seat wanting to know what would happen next。 Plenty of suspense to keep you guessing。 Thank you to net galley for an advanced readers copy。

I just HAVE to give this story 5 Stars on Amazon because it was SO well written。 Creepy when it comes to the murder but so different too。 But thankfully there were also some really GOOD people in the story。 Dave （often spoken of as Kane） and Jenna definitely fall into that category。 One of my favorite things that made me smile？ The question that Jenna asked Dave when they were making breakfast。 She asked if he needed her to burn the toast。 Their relationship was a surprise but one that I really I just HAVE to give this story 5 Stars on Amazon because it was SO well written。 Creepy when it comes to the murder but so different too。 But thankfully there were also some really GOOD people in the story。 Dave （often spoken of as Kane） and Jenna definitely fall into that category。 One of my favorite things that made me smile？ The question that Jenna asked Dave when they were making breakfast。 She asked if he needed her to burn the toast。 Their relationship was a surprise but one that I really enjoyed。 They made a great team， in so many ways。The story had really good world building。 The addition of Duke and Zorro （the dogs） was great。 Duke was trained to track people and Zorro was trained to detect explosives。 Speaking of good people， that includes Carter， Jo， Wolf， Rio， Rowley， Bobby Kahlo， to mention a few。 I will say that I had to pay attention to keep the people straight。 So， that was one bit of downside but it was worth it。 Everything comes to a stunning conclusion。 And I mean STUNNING！！！！My last thought ended up being， "What would you do to stay alive？" “I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book。 All thoughts and opinions are my own。” 。。。more

It is winter in Black Rock Falls， and the odd snowflake floats down， but you just know， as with everything else here， the weather will soon become extreme。 Sheriff Jenna Alton and her deputy David Kane are called to an abandoned vehicle， left on the side of an ice covered stretch of road leading out of town。 There is no sign of any occupants; they have vanished， leaving only questions behind。 As the town gets ready for Christmas， and decorations begin to go up， more residents vanish， with no clu It is winter in Black Rock Falls， and the odd snowflake floats down， but you just know， as with everything else here， the weather will soon become extreme。 Sheriff Jenna Alton and her deputy David Kane are called to an abandoned vehicle， left on the side of an ice covered stretch of road leading out of town。 There is no sign of any occupants; they have vanished， leaving only questions behind。 As the town gets ready for Christmas， and decorations begin to go up， more residents vanish， with no clues left to aid the Sheriff’s department in any way。 When Jenna and Kane find out their friends and local FBI agents， Jo Wells and Ty Carter are also looking into a missing person's case it seems， once again， there is a serial offender in their town bringing danger at what should be a happy time of year。 This is the eighteenth Kane and Alton mystery， and I've read and enjoyed every one of them。 The story is seen from both sides， which adds to the tension without giving away who is responsible， and there are shocks and surprises throughout。 As usual， the regular forays into Jenna and Kane's private life run alongside the main investigation and once again take this series to the next level。 Although I did work out one part of the storyline and think I spotted a couple of potential pointers towards a murder filled future everything else fell into place gradually and there were things I didn't see coming at all。 I was able to read an advanced copy of this book thanks to NetGalley and the publishers， but the opinions expressed are my own。 I loved this。 It was original but familiar and is easy to recommend。 。。。more

Of the 17 previous books in this series， I've read only two - the most recent two years ago。 Here， lead characters Sheriff Jenna Alton and her hunky deputy David Kane are married， living and working in small-town Black Rock Falls。 As this one opens， local bartender Maisy Jones goes missing and is feared to be yet another victim of a long-time and prolific serial killer。 Jenna and David find her abandoned truck and a backpack， but there's no sign of Maisy and the backpack contents belong to a you Of the 17 previous books in this series， I've read only two - the most recent two years ago。 Here， lead characters Sheriff Jenna Alton and her hunky deputy David Kane are married， living and working in small-town Black Rock Falls。 As this one opens， local bartender Maisy Jones goes missing and is feared to be yet another victim of a long-time and prolific serial killer。 Jenna and David find her abandoned truck and a backpack， but there's no sign of Maisy and the backpack contents belong to a young teaching assistant who - wait for it - has gone missing as well。 Uh， oh， this could spell double trouble （at least）。Other characters from other books quickly get involved - such as FBI agents Carter and Jo Wells and Medical Examiner Shane Wolf， along with lovable but skilled canines Duke and Zorro。 And the team will need all the help it can get: There are virtually no clues and no actual bodies; then， the unthinkable happens and a couple of other prominent people go missing。The action - and there's plenty of it - focuses on the investigation （which， at one point becomes a life-and-death situation for Jenna and her husband） as well as snippets from the perspective of one of the victims。 Who is the kidnapper/killer？ Where is he （or she） stashing the victims， and are they dead or alive？ Those questions， and others， are answered as this edge-of-your-seat story unfolds。 All in all， another satisfying addition to the series， and I thank the publisher， via NetGalley， for allowing me to read and review a pre-release copy。 。。。more

I would like to thank Netgalley and Bookouture for an advance copy of Now You See Me， the eighteenth novel to feature Sheriff Jenna Alton and Deputy Dave Kane of the Black Rock Falls， Montana Sheriff’s Office。Maisie Jones’s car is found on the edge of the highway and she is nowhere to be seen。 Jenna and Dave quickly realise that her car has been tampered with and she gets that sinking feeling， especially when assistant teacher， Billy Stephens’s backpack is found by the edge of another road。 Cons I would like to thank Netgalley and Bookouture for an advance copy of Now You See Me， the eighteenth novel to feature Sheriff Jenna Alton and Deputy Dave Kane of the Black Rock Falls， Montana Sheriff’s Office。Maisie Jones’s car is found on the edge of the highway and she is nowhere to be seen。 Jenna and Dave quickly realise that her car has been tampered with and she gets that sinking feeling， especially when assistant teacher， Billy Stephens’s backpack is found by the edge of another road。 Consulting with FBI Agents Jo Wells and Ty Carter who are in nearby Blackwater hunting for a missing family they think the disappearances might be linked。I enjoyed Now You See Me， which is another visit to Serial Killer Central as Black Rock Falls has become known with all the requisite twists and turns and explosive action that the series is known for。 It is told from various points of view， mainly some of the victims， Kane and Alton， giving the reader a leg up on events over the investigators， but not so much as a hint of the killer’s identity。 This is a different type of read to many of the other novels。 There are no bodies so the team are fumbling in the dark for much of the novel， unsure of what has happened to the missing， but with suspicions and no idea of the perpetrator’s identity or killing site。 The identity is revealed quite early in the novel， about 70% in， but that is only half the story with some quite shocking twists to follow。The novel has a bit of everything， friendship， tension， uncertainty and some explosive action。 It held my attention throughout and I was impressed by some of the twists the author threw in。Now You See Me is a good read that I have no hesitation in recommending。 。。。more
