“Don’t Turn Around” by Caroline Mitchell

As D.C. Jennifer Knight investigates a routine stabbing in the quiet town of Haven, she is shocked at what seems like a personal message from beyond the grave.
When more bodies are found, Jennifer is convinced the killings are somehow linked. What she discovers is more chilling than she could possibly imagine. The murders mirror those of the notorious Grim Reaper – from over twenty years ago. A killer her mother helped convict.

Jennifer can no longer ignore the personal connection. Is there a copycat killer at work? Was the wrong man convicted? Or is there something more sinister at play …

With her mother’s terrifying legacy spiraling out of control, Jennifer must look into her own dark past in a fight not only to stop a killer – but to save herself and those she loves.

I received an ARC copy from Net Galley in return for my honest opinion.

DC Jennifer Knight is not your typical investigator she has a keen fashion sense, and she hears voices from  the dead .Nothing much happens in her small township of Haven but that is all about to change.The one person she loves more than anything , her nephew Joshua is in danger and she is the only one who can save him. She trust her partner Will and her instincts, but starts to doubt her sanity as she races against time to solve a mystery that started many years ago with her mother.Bringing back bad memories of a childhood she’d rather forget. The closer she gets ,the more she seems to be involved, will she figure it out before it ‘s too late?

The book was top notch, I really enjoyed the action  and the suspense .I loved the main character even with all of her flaws, she is a strong heroine but she has a vulnerable side as well. I must say paranormal fiction is not something I normally would have chosen but it is such a strong book in all other aspects I was not turned off by it. I highly recommend it as a must read for the summer!
