As the end of the month draws near, I begin thinking of my sister’s and my tradition of posting what we have read and/or viewed that month. I just learned about a new thriller which will be out in September. Since I can not post it on my “Hit or Miss” list (since I haven’t read it yet) I thought I’d just share what I had heard about the upcoming release Evil at Heart from Chelsea Cain.

Here is the Starred Review by Publishers Weekly:

“In Cain’s superb follow-up to Heartsick, damaged detective Archie Sheridan is back home in Portland, Ore., trying to resume a normal life. Archie’s ties to serial killer Gretchen Lowell still run deep, even if he’s stopped their weekly visits in prison. Meanwhile, reporter Susan Ward is finishing an article accusing a beloved U.S. senator of seducing his children’s 14-year-old babysitter a decade earlier. When three bodies are discovered in a local park—where Archie’s team found Gretchen’s first victim 12 years earlier—Archie worries another serial killer is at large. After the senator’s unexpected death, Susan discovers links between the sex scandal and the bodies in the park. When Gretchen escapes from prison, Archie knows he’s the only one who can stop her from killing. In Cain’s capable hands, Gretchen is both a monster and the only person who truly understands Archie’s pain. With its brisk pacing, carefully metered violence and tortured hero, Cain’s sophomore effort will leave readers desperate for more.” -Publishers Weekly
