What if you thought your husband was a murderer?

The man you loved, the man who gave you two beautiful children and a perfect life.

What if no one believed you?

Laurie Davis is the mother of two children, struggling to keep her family together since her husband, Ryan, went to war and came back changed. His PTSD is evident.

He wakes up at night, screaming in fear; he can't stand loud noises or anyone sneaking upon him.

He even gets aggressive toward Laurie and the children. It has gotten so bad that he can no longer stay under the same roof as his family.

When a woman from his squadron is found murdered, Laurie discovers something that makes her suspect Ryan, her own husband.

But what do you do when no one believes a decorated war hero could also be a murderer?

What if you don’t want to believe it yourself?

As more people from the squadron turn up dead, by apparent suicides, Laurie digs deeper into the case.

She is risking her own life by putting it all on the line in a race against time to avoid becoming the killer's next victim.

Review

The suspense just keeps building in this book. Lots of twists and turns that kept me guessing until the very end. Definitely one of my favorites of this year.

Laurie and Ryan seem to have a great marriage until they don't. He's in the Air Force and returns from deployment a different man. Laurie becomes suspicious when his visits to squad members coincide with their suicides. She's seen his temper and anger since he returned. Could he be a murderer?
I received an arc of this book and voluntarily provided a review.
/ Anne G. Kasaba rated it 5-stars on Goodreads.

All I can say is "Wow, I didn't see that coming." This is a terrifying novel about a serviceman with PTSD and his formerly loving wife. The wife is now afraid of the serviceman and thinks he may actually be a murderer. And then the story starts taking unexpected jolts.

Interestingly, almost the entire story is told by a woman who is being debriefed by detectives after she was assaulted and rescued by police from an isolated cabin in the woods. The debriefing takes place in her hospital room.

One of the underlying storylines is real - that 1 in 3 military women are sexually assaulted while in the service. This by itself is horrible and needs to be rectified.

Great read, very well written. The story is violent and has sexual content. It was very frightening to me. I recommend this book only for mature audiences. I highly recommend it for people who like suspense mixed in with a police investigation. I think it's one of the best books I've read this year.
/ Susan Hamann rated it 5-stars on Goodreads.

FBI Jonathan Caine , requested to go to Bryson, North Carolina.
Laurie Davis the only survivor not looking like her photo, now laying in a hospital. Husband Ryan was on his fifth deployment. When he came back he wasn't the same, now with PTSD, and how does one handle that. The changes Laurie could see in others from her husband's unit, the suicides, the divorces.
FBI agent and Detective Grande believe her story, she would soon be leaving the hospital with clothes the technicians brought from the cabin. She lost weight and the pants were too long. FBI agent found a book that she had been reading at the cabin, and know knew the truth of what happened.
Amazing plot, you are convinced, until the end. The author has once again woven a compelling story for us to read.
/ Ellen White rated it 5-stars on Goodreads.
This book was truly a page-turner. I could not put it down. I could not guess what would happen next. I love Jonathan the FBI agent. The story was awesome. I don't think anyone will be able to figure out what is going on. Willow Rose, you are the best writer ever. I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review. And this is an honest review.
/ Rose rated it 5-stars on Goodreads.

The twist and turns are perfections. I am an avid Ms. Rose reader and after so many books she still surprised me! The facts of the story are very very sad and disturbing, as a female that cheers for those in the military now I feel the need to pray for them continually!
/ Rachael Smith rated it 5-stars on Goodreads.

Wow! This is quite some book. I was totally enthralled with this book and didn't want to put it down.
/ Kandy rated it 5-stars on Goodreads.

A page-turning thriller with an ending you will not see coming. A military man comes home with PTSD, a number of murders made to look like suicides. A rape that started it all.
/ Kenneth Lingenfelter rated it 5-stars on Goodreads.

    Wow! This story blew my mind! I read through it as fast as I could just to see what would happen next! It's another great story from Willow Rose!

    I really love reading stories by Willow Rose as she has a variety of stories with a different twist to them. However, this particular story definitely takes the cake in being so very different and unique. Why do I say this? While she definitely still has the great characters and style that completely pulls you into the story, here... Well, let's just say in this story, you will not see what is coming at all! You are drawn along and then... Wow!

    One thing I really love about the author is that she will write something that's outside her usual fare - and I find these to be exquisite gems to enjoy and recommend to others! Too, this story will keep you thinking about it LONG after you have finished reading it! THAT'S the sign of a great story! It stays with you!

    If you like a story that takes you where you don't expect to go - then you, too, will love this story!

    While I had been given an ARC, I am freely sharing my opinion here - hoping that you will want to jump into a great read! I can't wait for Willow's next book! She's my favorite in this genre!

    One of the things Willow Rose does really is to present the reader with a seemingly unsolvable mystery only to tie it up neatly at the end with a big red bow. This is a really twisty plot that is hard to put down.

    A good storyline based on true events. PTSD can be a devastating disease, with help it can be managed. The story is told by Laurie from her hospital bed. Ryan Davis & his squadron have recently returned from deployment to Afghanistan. Laurie, Ryan's wife, noticed Ryan came back changed, distant, and got angry if she asked him any questions. Members of the squadron were "Committing Suicide" or were they ? Laurie thinks Ryan is killing his friends... The storyline kept me guessing what was going to happen next. I wasn't expecting what happened. The ending of the story...WOW !! I was given an arc of this book and this is my own personal opinion. 😷🐧💙

    Ms. Rose has once again proven that she is a thriller writer par excellence. She is a master crafter who can take a real-life situation and fashion an intricate tale around it. This story is well-written, with strong characters and vivid descriptions that make you feel part of the action. The narrative pulls you in and glues you to the pages, not wanting to put it down. It winds through incident after incident, building suspense, with evidence leading the reader to draw a conclusion. Then the reveal blows you right out of the water! Well done, Ms. Rose!
