Amidst the growing hysteria, AJ, a senior psychiatric nurse, is desperate to protect his charges. Detective Inspector Jack Caffery is looking for the corpse of a missing woman. He knows all too well how it feels to fail to find a loved one's body. When AJ seeks Caffery's help in investigating the trouble at Beechway, each man must face a bitter truth in his own life. Before staring pure evil in the eye" -- from author's web page.

Exciting submitted by amym on August 19, 2014, 12:26pm this isn't as good as the first 2 books in the Jack Caffry series, but it's still better than most thrillers I've read. As usual, the plotting is very tight and you don't see the end coming.
