About this ebook

Good people can do terrible things...

Devil’s Cove was supposed to be safe. Until a killer was unmasked—and the truth became more horrifying than anyone imagined.

As the Cornish community reels from the discovery of a predator hiding behind a familiar face, Carrie is desperate to find her missing son, Cal—now implicated in the crimes. But she’s not the only one searching for him.

A dangerous cult has emerged from the shadows, determined to protect their secrets at any cost. And crime writer Aaron Black has arrived in town, desperate to save his career by exposing the truth. But his hunt for answers could cost more lives than it saves.

Because the nightmare is far from over. And for Carrie and her family, the worst is yet to come.

Desperation Point is the gripping second book in the Devil’s Cove Trilogy, packed with twists, chilling revelations, and heart-pounding suspense.

Desperation Point is the second book in the Devil's Cove Trilogy. This dark and disturbing read is the continuation of Cal's story. A journalist wants to save his career by writing a true crime story about the happenings in the small village. There is death, danger, drama, suspense, and intrigue. I will be reading the third book in this gripping trilogy. I read and reviewed this book with no obligation.

Carrie has been completely ruined after her horrendous experience at the hands of a murderous psychopath who has turned her son into a monster. Her son has vanished into the blue. Her apathy and drunkenness is destroying her family life. Aaron Black is a writer whose ambition is to write a bestseller about the murderous psychopath of Devil's Cove. He has seen Carrie's son and has an idea of where he might be hidden. In exchange for an interview for his book he has promised to lead her to her son. What will his quest entail? Is he risking life and limb for a pipe dream? The fast paced action and the suspense had me on the edge of my seat. Intriguing plot.

Brilliantly written (make sure nobody's watching) Wow! I'm at a loss of words. May I never find myself in a situation like this! I would not know what to do! Accurately described emotions and feelings and decisions to situations that could actually happen in real life. I know the main characters by now and I need to know how and if these horrors will end. This is a must read for anyone interested in human nature and spine chilling suspense!
