Publisher Description

A Most Anticipated Novel by PopSugar * Crime Reads * Goodreads *

A true crime blogger gets more than she bargained for while interviewing the woman acquitted of two cold case slayings in this chilling new novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Sun Down Motel.


In 1977, Claire Lake, Oregon, was shaken by the Lady Killer Murders: Two men, seemingly randomly, were murdered with the same gun, with strange notes left behind. Beth Greer was the perfect suspect—a rich, eccentric twenty-three-year-old woman, seen fleeing one of the crimes. But she was acquitted, and she retreated to the isolation of her mansion.
 
Oregon, 2017. Shea Collins is a receptionist, but by night, she runs a true crime website, the Book of Cold Cases—a passion fueled by the attempted abduction she escaped as a child. When she meets Beth by chance, Shea asks her for an interview. To Shea’s surprise, Beth says yes.
 
They meet regularly at Beth’s mansion, though Shea is never comfortable there. Items move when she’s not looking, and she could swear she’s seen a girl outside the window. The allure of learning the truth about the case from the smart, charming Beth is too much to resist, but even as they grow closer, Shea senses something isn’t right. Is she making friends with a manipulative murderer, or are there other dangers lurking in the darkness of the Greer house?

A great ghost hunt murder mystery

Like St. James last book I read, The Sun Down Motel, it was packed with suspense and held a steady build up that kept you guessing.

Great Psychological Thriller

Wow! Wow! Wow! Simone St. James book The Book of Cold Cases blew me out of the water. This story is full of suspense and mystery. This is a tale of two women, Beth Greer is ready to tell her story from a long ago Cold Case and she has picked none other but Shea Collins who has her own demons to fight.

This story is told on a dual timeline and will keep you engaged all the way to the end. This is a book you are NOT going to want to put down.

Simone St. James writes a wonderful, suspenseful mystery and thriller that will have you wanting until you reach the very end. This book will keep you reading way past your bedtime to finish. One of the best mystery/thrillers I’ve read this year.

Thank you to #netgalley and #berkleypublishing,berkley for allowing me to read the ARC of this book. All opinions expressed above are my own.

Just okay

It was scary, which I liked, but it lacked in some aspects. I still have so many questions that were not answered!!!
