It starts in her dreams. Hideous flashes from a nightmare only she can stop. Images of a murderer stalking the ones she cares about most... Stella Harrison thought she got away from the traumas of her past. Running the Sunrise Lake resort high in the Sierra Nevada mountains has brought her peace, even though she doesn't truly share her quiet life with anyone. Not even Sam, the hired handyman that notices everything and always seems to know exactly what she needs. Stella doesn't know anything about Sam's past, but somehow over the last two years his slow, steady presence has slipped past her defenses. Still, she knows she can't tell him about her recent premonitions. So far there's been no murder. No body. No way to prove what's about to happen without destroying the life she's built for herself. But a killer is out there. And Stella knows that this time she'll do whatever it takes to stop him.

An atypical serial-killer / suspense-y read with a slight paranormal twist, likable characters, lots of mystery and set in a lovable small town that I’d move to right now if I could.
This puts relationships, friendships and otherwise to ‘the true test’, packs a smidge of violence, and a budding, slow-burn romance, in addition to the suspense-y vibes.
It wasn’t really twisty, but it was entertaining enough that I finished in and would read more by this author.
I felt like that narrator did a great job and almost made it sound full-cast. Well done all-around.
4 stars.
This book had way too much description. It reminded me of Grisham.
If I had to read one more detailed description of a female in this book, I would have DNF’d it. The men are all vague but you get every woman’s hair color, eye color, height, and dramatic past. I’m sure it’s set up for future books.
The story of s not terrible but it was rather flat and the killer basically had a spotlight on him.
