My Review - When A Secret Kills



5 out  of 5 stars

Though I hate to see the Deadly Reunions series come to an end, WHEN A SECRET KILLS made for a great finale.  

Jillian Carter fled her hometown after her high school graduation because of what she mistakenly witnessed.  With a new identity, Jillian becomes an investigative reporter and starts a new life.  When a car bomb meant for her kills a friend, she realizes she’s been found.  Instead of running, she decides to go home and set the record straight.  It is ten years later and Jillian’s decided she no longer wants to run.  The person who is after her needs to be punished for his crime.  But, witnessing a murder is not the only secret Jillian has hidden for ten years.  

Going back home not only endangers herself, but anyone who tries to help Jillian.  Colton Brady, her high school sweetheart, now police detective, comes to her aid.  But that only makes things more difficult.  The secrets from her past will devastate him, that is, if he even believes her.  Focusing on her goal of exposing a murderer and putting those she loves out of danger, she must find the evidence she needs to prove her adversaries guilt before he eliminates her.

WHEN A SECRET KILLS was fast-paced drama at its best!  From the first chapter to the end, non-stop drama fills pages that can’t be turned fast enough.  Jillian is on a quest to set the record straight.  Colton is determined to prove her wrong.  And both of them do everything they can to deny their feelings for each other.  Of course, every good suspense book has twists and turns that scramble the thoughts of the reader.  And though I was able to spot the killer before the grand finale, Ms. Eason did a great job of causing doubt in the reader’s minds.  A great read, that was over way to fast.  I can’t wait to see what Lynette Eason will come up with next.
