5 Stars

Hush, My Darling is the second book in the Benoit and Dayne series. I did not read the first book, but the second book was clear enough that it stood alone and was easy to follow. This book is a page turner and one that I had a very hard time putting down, in fact, I read it in one day. This is unheard of for me! The book opens and we meet Dayne who has just been called to the crime scene. The body they have discovered has a message, one that is meant for Dayne herself. You see, Dayne is the only living survivor of this serial killer. And it seems that the killer has come back for her. This brings Daynes past crashing down around her both figuratively and literally. As Dayne grapples with her past, deciding whether to continue to be a cop and her very complicated love life, we also meet Benoit. Benoit is the new Sheriff in town. She is learning the ropes in a town that feels that she is not capable of the role. She is dealing with unprecedented flooding and now a serial killer is in her town. She deals with who she can trust and if the old Sheriff who is offering his help is trustworthy and has good motives. This story is filled with twists and turns until it comes to one stunning conclusion.
