Manhunter

This book will keep you reading until the end and the suspense will make you wonder how there can be a HEA. Will Gabe and Silver survive being hunted by a serial killer who is determined to kill them? The killer will kill anyone he needs to in order to kill the person he is really after and he enjoys the hunt and the kill. Loreth made him come alive with her venture into his mind. The depth of the characters make them real and make you feel like you are with them in their race against death. The story kept me awake and reading until I finished it and that was after midnight. I wonder if I'm going to have nightmares? If you enjoy the type of story that keeps you on the edge of your seat read "Manhunter" by Loreth Ann White. I wonder what she will come up with for the next book in the series?

Sergeant Gabe Caruso first met Kurtz Steiger (a psychopathic serial killer the media dubbed Bush Man) when he was stationed in Williams Lake in British Columbia's interior. Kurtz had been hiding out in a Quonset hut on a farm on the outskirts of town. Kurtz had been on the loose for three years after had fled into Canada to escape a US court martial. He had been killing and torturing hunters, campers, hikers and anyone else he came across just for the thrill of it. The mounties had surrounded the Quonset hut where Kurtz had been hiding but he had managed to escape by killing several of them including Gabe's fiance. Kurtz was finally caught and imprisoned and Gabe was sent to Black Arrow Falls where he met Silver Karvonen who was fighting her own devils. Silver was a renown tracker who lived in the area. Kurtz escaped from prison and headed for Black Arrow Falls planning to engage Gabe and Silver in the hunt of their lives and he would kill anyone he needed to in order to win the game he had planned.
