I have three confessions to make:
1. I've got the scar of gunshot on my forehead.
2. I don't remember an entire year of my life.
3. My name is Kellen Adams...and that's half a lie.

Girl running...from a year she can't remember, from a husband she prays is dead, from homelessness and fear. Tough, capable Kellen Adams takes a job as assistant manager of a remote vacation resort on the North Pacific Coast. There amid the towering storms and the lashing waves, she hopes to find sanctuary. But when she discovers a woman's dead and mutilated body, she's soon trying to keep her own secrets while investigating first one murder...then another. 

Now every guest and employee is a suspect. Every friendly face a mask. Every kind word a lie. Kellen's driven to defend her job, her friends and the place she's come to call home. Yet she wonders--with the scar of a gunshot on her forehead and amnesia that leaves her unsure of her own past--could the killer be staring her in the face?

 

When I read the books description I just couldn't wait to start reading it. I've been in a mystery thriller kick so I was pretty excited to start reading this book. I loved the back and forth between then and now giving the readers Kellens story where she started and how her life was going up until the very ending of the book. It was tough getting to hear her story of what she was going through in the past. Then there was what she was dealing with now with the killing and who was behind it and if the killer was still around. Just know that this book packs a punch with so much going on that the readers will be hooked until the very end trust me I'm one of those people I spent most of my morning and afternoon reading this book straight through because I didn't want to wait or miss a thing. Highly Recommend!
