Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
It took everything in Teresa Farr’s power to return to her hometown of Point Pleasant, West Virginia. Eight years earlier, she had walked in on the savage murders of her father and stepmother—both of whom she hated. She barely managed to save herself and her eight-year-old stepsister, Celeste. But even after notorious serial killer Roscoe Lee Byrnes confessed, people still wondered if Teri was the guilty one. And with Celeste unable to remember that night, or to speak at all, those suspicions never went away…
Now Celeste is beginning to remember. Now Byrnes has recanted his confession. And someone is using a series of bizarre, taunting events to exact terrifying “justice.” As Teri desperately races to uncover the truth, she’s finding that everyone she loves has secrets they would kill to keep buried. And in the bright mountain sunlight, an evil concealed all too well is reaching out to silence her and Celeste forever…

I REALLY wanted to like this book.. I really did. To me this book was slow and not to well put together. Also, the author switches back and forth from using two names for one person. Teri and Teresa.. who are the same person. I think the book would have flowed much easier if the author would have used just one name for the same character. Beyond that, for me this book just didn't have it. I love mystery books, suspense novels, and romantic suspense novels.
Oh well. Happy reading! :)

Theresa "Teri" wakes up one night and discovers the bodies of her father and step-mother in their bed. She immediately runs out of the room to check on her step-sister, Celeste, and runs into the killer. The killer stabs her in the arm, sparing her life, and flees into the night. A short time later, a serial killer confesses to the murders, despite the town believing Teri killed her father and step-mother.
The story takes place eight years later around July 4th weekend. The week of his execution, Roscoe Lee Byrnes recants his confession. Once again, suspicion falls on Teri. Meanwhile, Celeste is left mute after the murders and finally starts talking again. Memories flood her and soon she starts to piece together that tragic night. While she desperately attempts to recall the killer's face, the killer is watching and plotting his/her subsequent move.

I have read most of Carlene Thompson's novels and this one is just as great as all of her others!! I look forward to her subsequent book!! I have yet to be able to figure out the villian before they are revealed. She does a great job of keeping me guessing. Wonderful read!!

I have read every single book by Carlene Thompson, and not one has ever disappointed me.
Some books by other authors I have a hard time getting into. But from page 1 to the end of this book, I found it hard to get OUT of. I couldn't put it down.
I look forward to more books by her.

Personally, I feel that this is just another feather in her cap. It never fails that in every book, I feel as if I am right there living with the Characters as if I know them very well. Their personalities, their likes, dislikes, etc. I am awaiting her subsequent book with baited breath.
Just a note... Teri is a well known nickname for Teresa. The "poster" that wrote a poor review seemed to be so upset with just that one sentence where the names, Teresa and Teri were introduced. It really is a shame that you could not get past that because the book was excellent.
