For fans of Karin Slaughter and Michael Connelly—a gripping K-9 mystery where a wedding-day murder masks a deadly family secret.
Officer Eden Mercer and her K-9 partner Shadow have seen their share of dark cases on the Oregon coast. But nothing prepares her for the call that comes on a sunny Saturday afternoon: a bride strangled in her wedding dress, minutes before walking down the aisle.The groom claims innocence. The guests saw nothing. And the victim's ex-boyfriend—caught lurking at the venue—makes a convenient suspect.
But Eden's instincts tell her the truth is closer to the altar. The groom's mother hovers too close and sets off every alarm Eden learned to recognize from her own childhood inside a fundamentalist cult.
She doesn't have time for a complicated case. Not now. Her younger brother has been dragged back to the her family's compound, and the FBI is preparing a raid that could end in a firefight—or a mass grave. Eden needs to close this investigation and get to Nevada before it's too late.
But as a second bride turns up dead, and then another, a new pattern emerges. Eden realizes she's not just solving a simple murder. She's exposing a killer with twisted devotion that will do anything to protect its own.
Even kill again.
New to the series? Final Vow can be read as a standalone—but once you meet Eden and Shadow, you'll want to go back to the beginning.
