Two Little Souls is book nine in the fantastic Detective Casey White series and this one picks up right where book eight left off. With Casey and boyfriend Jericho rescuing two terrified children out at sea in a life raft and who have witnessed their parents murder.

However, with no idea where they came from or their parents names. Casey and Jericho can't do anything, except, get them safely to shore and seek urgent medical help.

But it doesn't take long for Jericho's former Marine Patrol colleagues to call with news that the boat they escaped from has been found. And the scene is worse than anything Casey could've imagined.

Yet, she and her depleted team including Jericho, M.E. Samantha, investigator Tracey and Nichelle who is technically now an FBI Agent are determined to get answers.

And they soon do.

As the female victim is identified as Detective Sara Roth from the NYPD. But when Casey contacts her captain she receives some shocking news.

News that has her certain a serial killer has found their way from New York to the Outer Banks and Casey is soon proven right.

As another body is discovered killed and displayed using the same MO as the NY killer.

And now the race is on, and as danger stalks ever closer Casey is going to have to pull out all the stops if she is to stop a desperate killer and keep two traumatised children safe.

And with heart pounding twists, and a killer I didn't see coming. This was a cracking read, that I've spent every spare moment reading and honestly I couldn't get enough!

I would happily recommend Two Little Souls to crime fiction fans everywhere.

My thanks to Bookouture and NetGalley for the opportunity to read an early copy of Two Little Souls 😊
