Catch the Girl: A Mercy Harbor Thriller Kindle Edition

by Melinda Woodhall (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars 771 ratings

CAN A VENGEFUL KILLER BE STOPPED BEFORE THE NEXT GIRL DIES?

In this gripping new book in the Mercy Harbor Thriller series, a troubled young woman seeks refuge within an isolated Florida commune. After two of her friends go missing, she suspects the peaceful community hides a deadly secret, and soon realizes that she has become the target of a heartless killer.

Retired detective Pete Barker vows to find his runaway daughter and bring her home. When his search leads him to Florida’s swampy backwoods, he uncovers an unsettling connection between a secretive commune and a series of grisly murders.

Desperate to save his daughter, and determined to catch the twisted killer, Barker turns to his ex-partner, Detective Nessa Ainsley, and enlists the help of Eden Winthrop, a woman dedicated to saving Willow Bay’s most vulnerable citizens.

But as the killer’s shocking motive is unveiled, and the body of yet another innocent victim is discovered, Barker’s last chance to save his daughter brings him face-to-face with pure evil.

    This the third book in The Mercy Harbor Series and it doesn't disappoint. It continues the story of Willow Bay and the wonderful Eden, Nessa and, of course, Duke. You can enjoy this book without reading the first two books but I encourage you to start with "The River Girls" so you can fully enjoy the connections between the characters. And again, the twist surprised me! Totally Recommend.

    The third book in this murder-mystery series continues to pull the reader in. The main characters’ lives become more connected with each other and there are some interesting twists and turns discovering who’s killing girls in Willow Bay. While there’s some satisfying happiness in the ending, there’s obviously more mystery to be solved in the next book (which is great to be able to look forward to!)

    Some good twists in this one that I didn’t see coming, but others were kind of obvious. Not my favorite of Woodhall’s books, but still a good read.

    This third novel in the Mercy Harbor thriller series brings more depth to the existing characters of the previous two novels while intertwining many new characters, all easy to follow through the story line.

    I'm hoping author Woodhall has more material in mind for a fourth (or more) story (ies). Thoroughly enjoyed this book.

    This rating was chosen because it simply deserves the highest praise. As with the other books of this author the plot is excellent , just thrilling enough to keep you on the edge of your seat and enthralled enough to entice to keep reading. Fabulous story. Great appeal for women. Keep on writing.
