Out of Sight (Mackenzie Price Book 6) Arc Book Review

The woman’s body was propped against the rough bark of the tree. Traces of dried blood streaked her pallid face like brushstrokes. There was a horrifying void in her face where her left eye should have been.

When a young woman is found murdered in the woods, Detective Mackenzie Price and her partner Nick Blackwood are first on the scene. The harrowing discovery leaves them both breathless—the victim’s left eye has been removed. Mackenzie identifies the victim as Whitney Smythe , a lost soul with troubled past, and makes another shocking discovery—Whitney recently gave birth.

Reeling from the scene, Mackenzie and her team soon discover that this case is very similar to a murder that happened thirty years ago. But the killer was captured and died behind bars, so how can the two murders possibly be connected?

When a second body washes ashore with her left eye missing, Mackenzie is certain— there’s a serial killer on the loose and she has to stop them before they pick their next victim.

Mackenzie soon discovers that both victims were connected to a commune just outside of town, a breakthrough that changes the whole course of the investigation. But every step Mackenzie takes towards discovering who the sadistic serial killer is puts her closer to mortal danger. Because someone close to her has a personal connection to the case—and they’re not telling the truth…

A completely gripping and pulse-pounding crime thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat flipping the pages deep into the night. Perfect for fans of Lisa Regan, Karin Slaughter and Robert Dugoni.

Mackenzie Price is back with another case to solve!

A body of a girl was found deep in the woods but her left eye is gouged out. The case is eerily similar to another case that happened nearly thirty years ago when Sully, Mackenzie’s sergeant was a rookie cop but the killer is already caught and is behind the bars. Mackenzie and Nick then take over the case, wondering if there are any similarities between the previous case and this case. However, when another body of a woman was found, in the similar fashion, both Mackenzie and Nick find that both women are from a place called The Farm, a cult place where they breed the babies and give away. Mackenzie must find the killer before he or she attacks again.

This was actually a fast-paced thriller, unputdownable and a page turner. There were so many twists and turns and many of them are unexpected twists and turns. The story starts with the scene where Mackenzie was arrested and so as a reader you are wondering what is going to happen to Mackenzie as you read on through the book. The book is also well written and gripping and I like the fact that the author made the reader feel like they are a part of the story. Overall, this book completely worth four stars.

This is the sixth book of the Mackenzie Price series and so if you want to read this book, it is highly recommended to read from Book 1 onwards as some of Mackenzie’s past is often unraveled in the book.

Many thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for the ARC. The review is based on my honest opinion only.
