A Merciful Death (Mercy Kilpatrick Book 1)
Review "In the debut of her new Mercy Kilpatrick series, Elliot crafts an eerily fascinating small town. An air of menace is palpable throughout the story, and the characters hide a wealth of secrets and twisted loyalties." — RT Book Reviews "Elliot is a master of romantic suspense, and her latest sets a rural community of preppers (people preparing for disaster) in the sights of a killer. Elliot expertly interweaves the current murders with the damage that past crimes have done to Mercy and Truman's souls, and she lays out convincing tracks to a number of possible culprits in Eagle's Nest. Fascinating details about prepper lifestyle give extra flavor to this mystery, adding to its memorability." —Adrian Liang, Amazon Book Review About the Author Kendra Elliot is the award-winning author of numerous books, including the Bone Secrets and Callahan & McLane series.
