 Seeking Evil

Book Summary

No one knows where she is. . .

When BAU Agent Sierra Parker's car dies in the middle of nowhere Wyoming, she breaks a critical rule by catching a ride with a kind stranger. This decision leads her straight into the lair of a serial killer, where she discovers she isn't the first victim. Barrels containing the remains of those who went before her line a wall proving none of them escaped their captor. Can Sierra outwit the seasoned killer to save her life, or will she become the latest victim buried in a barrel?

The last Agent Zeke London heard from Sierra was when she told him she needed to get away to figure things out between them. That was over a week ago and his calls have been met with radio silence. Can he do the impossible and locate Sierra in the middle of the mountains before it's too late?

My Thoughts

Seeking Evil by Mary Alford is an intriguing story.  The prologue drew me in, and my interest was held as I progressed through the book. The characters are developed and varied. The mystery was full of suspense and action.  There were several suspects, but one stood out to me (I love solving whodunits).  I was happy to see that my guess was correct during the reveal. Sierra is a courageous woman.  She is smart and tenacious.  Sierra used her training to her advantage.  I imagine that it can be hard holding on to hope as time passes.  I enjoyed the epilogue.  Seeking Evil is the third book in the Hallowed Hall series.  It can be read as a standalone for those who are new to the series like me (it will, though, have you wanting to go back and read the first two books in the series).  Seeking Evil is a captivating tale with missing climbers, romance woes, a creepy killer, troubled team members, disturbing barrels, and a bothered boyfriend. 

Seeking Evil is available from Amazon.  It can be read for free if you are a Kindle Unlimited member.  The first two books in the Hallowed Hall series are Don't Close Your Eyes and The Last to Know (both are available through Kindle Unlimited).  Mary Alford has Amish Country Killer coming out April 1.  You can follow the author on Amazon, and they will send you an email when she has a new book release.  Thank you for popping by today.  I will return tomorrow to share my thoughts on Essence of Foul Play by Daryl Wood Gerber.  I hope that you have a peaceful day.  Take care and Happy Reading!
