Left to Harm (An Adele Sharp Mystery—Book Fifteen) Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 326 ratings

The #1 bestselling series! In a busy train station in Europe, a tourist finds a finger in a train station locker—and soon after, a matching body is discovered on the train. A new serial killer is at work, more cunning and diabolical than anyone can imagine—and FBI Special Agent is the only one who can stop him before he strikes again.

“When you think that life cannot get better, Blake Pierce comes up with another masterpiece of thriller and mystery! This book is full of twists and the end brings a surprising revelation. I strongly recommend this book to the permanent library of any reader that enjoys a very well written thriller.”
--Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos (re Almost Gone)

LEFT TO HARM is book #15 in the #1 bestselling FBI thriller series featuring Adele Sharp (the series begins with LEFT TO DIE, book #1) by USA Today bestselling author Blake Pierce, whose #1 bestseller Once Gone (a free download) has received over 1,000 five-star reviews.

FBI special agent Adele Sharp—a German-and-French raised American with triple citizenship—is made to criss-cross America and Europe to bring criminals to justice. But as more bodies begin to turn up, each missing a finger and abandoned on a train, Adele must race to uncover the meaning behind this twisted signature.

Can she enter the killer’s mind in time to save the next victim?

Or will this case take a darker turn than even Adele could imagine?

An action-packed mystery series of international intrigue and riveting suspense, LEFT TO LOATHE will leave you turning pages late into the night.

  • Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2022
    DGSI special agents Adele Ripley and John Rene search for a killer who leaves a part of his victim to be found by an innocent bystander and then taunts them thorough the phone as he leads them to discover the rest of the body. John remains very close and protective of Adele as she recovers from her stab wound. She is ready to work, but he is concerned she is returning too soon. As she put her life on the line to capture the killer, she realizes John’s overprotectiveness is a part of the many ways he shows he cares. They make a major life decision, and as soon as their new life begins, John receives a phone call about the death of someone from his old life.
    I love Adele’s and John’s relationship. I love the way they banter and tease each other. I love the way they work together when hunting for a killer. I love how their relationship has developed over the 16 books. Blake Pierce, do not mess this up.

    FBI Agent Adele is fluent in many languages, can easily fit into the many countries she has to go to. Her job is to catch a twisted killer. She knows his pattern. Can she out smart him and catch. A plot that has you trying to figure him out and what can Adele do. Great series. Give. ARC for. my voluntary review and my honest opinion
  • Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2022
    This may well be one of Blake Pierce's best books, maybe THE best. It is pure excitement and calamity, with Adele chasing the serial killer and still bleeding from her last attack by a still unknown killer! Turns out we know that it is one of John's special forces group that got left behind because he was thought dead - He is looking for revenge! Meanwhile, John wants Adele to move in with him, but before they can react to that, pure pandemonium sets in when John's ex-wife is found dead in her house! The pace in this book is 10 miles a minute, impossible to put down! I can't wait to see what happens in the next book!

    Adele returns to work before her last injuries are healed. She is working through hiding her pain and struggles from John while trying to locate a new murder who is targeting moving targets in different countries. Adele manages to find a link between victims and bring the case to a close. This was a nail biter…..especially at the end when she realizes that she is not being targeted, but John is.
  • Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2022
    In “Left to Harm” Adele and John are seeking to find a killer on a train before he or she claims another victim. Simultaneously, with injuries from a previous case, Adele is trying to heal physically and emotionally. John, worried about Adele’s need for protection makes an offer Adele can’t seem to refuse. Then… This book has a riveting ending I didn’t see coming—I NEED the next in the series!!
