Publisher's summary

A detective with everything to prove. A devastating murder. A town full of secrets….

Haunted by the serial killer she never caught, Detective Kimberley King leaves her job in New York and relocates to the sleepy town of Dead Woman Crossing, Oklahoma. Kimberley hopes to bring her daughter Jessica up close to her family, far from the bad memories the city holds. But her quiet new home is not the peaceful place she dreamed of. Within days of her arrival, Kimberley is called to the scene of a terrible crime: her friend Hannah, a single mother, has been brutally murdered while her one-year-old daughter was sleeping nearby.

Kimberley can’t ignore the similarity of Hannah’s death to that of Katie James, a young woman who was murdered in front of her small daughter in 1905, on the banks of the same twisting creek. Dead Woman Crossing is named after her, and it seems someone is drawing inspiration from the crime. Could this killer be a copycat?

But as she interviews suspects, Kimberley is met with blank faces and closed lips. In a small town, people won’t talk, and when she pursues a promising lead, her own family turn their back on her. Kimberley isn’t afraid to ask questions, but when she receives a threatening note, she realizes that, as a single mother to a young daughter, she might be putting herself dangerously in the killer’s sights…,

A gripping, atmospheric crime thriller inspired by true events, about a town on the edge of collapse and a murder that shakes the community. Dead Woman Crossing is perfect for fans of Rachel Caine, Lisa Regan, and Jane Harper.

AMAZING

JR Adler is so talented. This book will have you wondering what is around every corner - a constant mistrust for all of the characters, described in a way that allows you to physically picture them. Highly
Recommend!

Just boring

I didn’t like this book. Many characters are drawn as mere caricatures even the villains. Ultimately I just got bored. It was obvious plotting.

It’s okay

I’m not a huge fan of the narrator. The story was predictable but still held my attention. If you need an easy listen definitely check it out.

Good story. Narrator lacking

Story kept me guessing, author created several likely suspects one of whom turned out to be the killer.
Narrator lacked the ability to differentiate character voices with the exception of the baby. Might listen to another story by this author. Hopefully narrator will be more skilled.

I’m a fan. 10/10.

Great thrills without getting too dark. Fully invested in Detective King. Have my fingers crossed for a series here. Scott probably hated it, but I loved it. More, please!

Interesting

The groundwork for the series and characters was well laid out but it was a slow start to get to the action. Kimberly is a hard character to love but it was a good story and i will continue the series.

Enthralling listen 🎧 and builds up quickly

Another great thriller and listened to it in about 9 days and loved every minute until the climax which shocked me.

not worth the listen

Slow moving, even the climax is boring. You keep listening at the end thinking there will be some twist but there isn't. Too much emphasis spent on "new york". Overall just lackluster.

New favorite read!

Narrator is awesome and makes the story! This story does not disappoint and I was intrigued the whole time, just when you think you know everything, plot twist occurs! Highly recommend!
