Posted on April 20, 2020 by Jenn

No one does psychological thrillers like Hillier! This is the sixth title of hers I’ve read and loved!  She’s done it again; I think she can’t possibly top her last book but this one…this one most certainly tops them all. … Continue reading →

Review: The Chill by Scott Carson

Posted on February 10, 2020 by Jenn

I enjoy a good thriller with a well-developed backstory! The story of the Chilewaukee reservoir is a haunting one; an entire village lay submerged beneath the water.  With it comes a cast of well-developed characters, both past and present.  Aaron Ellsworth, son … Continue reading →
