Synopsis

The noises, faint, fleeting, whispered into her consciousness like wraiths passing in the night. Twelve-year-old Erin Willit opened her eyes to darkness lit only by the dim green nightlight near her closet door and the faint glow of a street lamp through her front window. She felt her forehead wrinkle, the fingers of one hand curl as she tried to discern what had awakened her. Something was not right . . . Annie Kingston moves to Grove Landing for safety and quiet—and comes face to face with evil. When neighbor Lisa Willet is killed by an intruder in her home, Sheriff’s detectives are left with little evidence. Lisa’s daughter, Erin, saw the killer, but she’s too traumatized to give a description. The detectives grow desperate. Because of her background in art, Annie is asked to question Erin and draw a composite. But Annie knows little about forensic art or the sensitive interview process. A nonbeliever, she finds herself begging God for help. What if her lack of experience leads Erin astray? The detectives could end up searching for a face that doesn’t exist. Leaving the real killer free to stalk the neighborhood . . .

I am shocked by the high reviews this book has gotten. Perhaps it’s because I listened instead of reading it, and the narrator was very melodramatic. However, the writing oh my gosh. One quote that sticks with me is “the ER smelled of the clean of disinfectant and the dirt of disappointment ”. WTH?......more

Goodreads review by Allie

This was such a good book! I loved seeing the main character evolve over the course of the story! I would say that this one is a bit more graphic than what I'm typically used to, but it didn't bother me too much if I just skim-read through a couple parts 🙃 Overall, I loved the mystery/Thriller aspec......more

Goodreads review by Kinyorda

Unforgiveable tropes: 1. Women who are unnecessarily self-deprecating. I can't do anything right. I am so stupid. Yet somehow this worthless person is the only person who can find the solution to the problem. And even after this person has solved the problem they continue to be in disbelief of their......more

From the opening scene in BRINK OF DEATH you know you're in good hands. You're also in for a ride - one that thrusts you into the world of Annie Kingston - single mom, former courtroom artist, and a woman about to live a nightmare. Told in Annie's engaging first person point of view (except for the p......more
