Agent Melina Shepard is determined to solve the
disappearances of multiple women but while working the street undercover, she
narrowly escapes becoming a victim of the serial killer. Needing backup, she
teams up with FBI agent Jerrod Ramsey, a lone wolf, he joins forces with Melina
as leads run cold and they find themselves frustrated in trying to solve the
case. When called to a scene where a little girl is found abandoned, they find
themselves horrified to find another crime has been committed. But does that
mean there are TWO serial killers working their own agenda and MO? Jerrod and
Melina quickly race against the clock as both killers are determined to stop
them at whatever the cost, including Melina’s life.
NEVER LOOK BACK is a
taut thriller that will keep you entertained till the very end. Ms. Burton
delivers one of her best works to date with her latest book and I was drawn
into the cat and mouse game both killers employ as they face off against Jerrod
and Melina. The writing is tight, and the story flowed smoothly with a few
twists I sure didn’t see coming. The characters kept my interest and the fact
there was two killers working separately left me eager to see if Jerrod and
Melina would catch them or not. I also enjoyed the subtle chemistry between
Jerrod and Melina. It was quite sexy at times but also gave a depth to the
story line filled with death and killing.
Ms. Burton delivers a great mystery/suspense that will
leave the reader gasping and turning the pages for more. With each page, the
reader is drawn into the world of Melina and Jerrod as they battle wits with
not just one serial killer, but two and with danger looming against Melina,
Jerrod and Melina will be hard pressed to solve the baffling crimes. What
intrigued me about this book was the two different MO’s of the killers.
Seemingly different yet both kept my attention as they went about their way to
get their next victim and to make sure they didn’t get caught. I love stories
like this were I am forced to think and try to figure out the killers’
identities. They few revelations towards the end of the book had me in shock
and I was eager to see how it would all play out in the end. NEVER LOOK BACK
is a thrill ride from start to finish and you will not be disappointed if you
are looking for a taut, action packed suspense story that will keep you
guessing. Now I want to know is when is the next book out.
