My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I am truly amazed by this author. Everything I read by her keeps getting better and better. Shadow’s Keep by Meghan O’Flynn follows Deputy Sheriff William Shannahan. When he finds the body of a child in the woods while he was running William is determined to find the actual killer, especially when the Medical Examiner advises that the child was killed by a dog. However, this animal would have had to have very large paws and be able to remove the child’s eyes. This story also follows William’s girlfriend Cassie. Cassie has a son about the same age as the victim. Cassie has some underlying issues that have been pushed far back in her mind and when this murder happens, those issues come out. The only thing for William to do is to protect her and her son while the investigation takes place because there is a lot that is discovered and comes out. Both of these characters have their own personalities that make this story even more interesting. I love the way that this author writes. She is so completely descriptive that it is entirely captivating. She sucks you in and the only way out is to finish this book. Yes, it’s a page turner that has lots of twists and turns that you can imagine. I cannot wait to read the next book from this author. She has become one of my favorite writers and will definitely recommend this book and any others by her.

Shadow’s Keep: A Novel was a 5 star must read.
Wow, where to start with my review. I was pulled in right from the beginning.

William, who is the sheriff of Graybel happens to come across a body of a child while out in the woods. What appears to be a dog attack, quickly changes into something more sinister. Now that there are more murders in the area, he suspects it may be a serial killer. Will he be able to solve the mystery before anyone else is hurt?

I don’t want to say anything else to give this great read away. You have to read this for yourself.
There were several twists, turns and shocking moments that added great elements to this dark and gritty read. All of the characters were great. Meghan O’Flynn does a great job of pulling you right in with her writing, you feel like your right there with the characters. The ending as left me confused and shocked.I am reeling after this read, my emotions were all over the place.

Shadow’s Keep by Meghan O’Flynn is another thrilling read by a great author. I have read other books and sort of knew what to expect but I did not know what to expect completely. The story is well done and had me drawn in quickly. I like reading this author because she delves into dark places and there are always twists and turns. The story is well done and kept me on the edge of my seat. I did not want to put the book down because I wanted to see where the story went. The characters are interesting and I like that they have decisions to make not that everything is always easy peasy. I will be on the lookout for more from this author.

This story had me guessing all the way through until the end. Meghan O’Flynn has become one of my favorite authors. She has a way of keeping the hints very subtle and the story moving ahead. If you are not careful you will miss some important parts. There was a couple of sections when I was turning the page and I had to go back and reread the sentence or sentences. The characters are fully developed. This is a very dark twisted novel. I will admit that I was scared out of my mind at times. That is what I love about this author. I can be totally scared thinking that this is happening in the woods behind my house when I know that this is a fictitious story. I hope that you enjoy this book as much as I did.

Shadow’s Keep: A Novel by Meghan O’Flynn. This author knows how to write a book that not only keeps you guessing and thinking it also keeps you on the edge of your seat. From page one readers are taken on a dark and twisted journey that will leave you breathless by the end. Feeling like you have well and truly been through this story with it’s characters not just reading from the sidelines. The attention to details is one of my favorite things about this story. And the characters are complex and relatable. The entire book had me completely drawn in and I read well into the night because I had to know everything. It’s well written and paced nicely, never feeling rushed or lacking anything. I can’t wait to read more from this author. I’m giving this book a five star review and highly recommend it to everyone.

I give Shadow’s Keep: A Novel by Meghan O’Flynn, 4 stars.

Deputy Sheriff William Shannahan struggles. There are many things holding him back. He feels like he is just playing a role. Until the vicious murders begin in their quiet little town. The first one is labeled a dog attack, but William has his doubts. He has a feeling there’s more to it. Can he discover what is really going on before even more bodies turn up? Or is it just his imagination, like everyone else seems to think?

This a suspense book like nothing I have read before. It is not what you think. It is very obvious from the beginning that William is quite broken. Everything he lived for is gone. But he still wants to serve and protect. So he tries to put aside his troubles for the better of his town. The story itself has William learning many things, taking him deeper into the mystery. It will keep you on the edge of your seat, guessing what it really going on until the end.

If you like suspenseful stories, this book is for you.

Shadow’s Keep: A Novel
By Meghan O’Flynn
Rated 4 stars

This story was a shock to me and my mind is still reeling with the possibilities. I never figured this out. This is a perfectly weaved story of suspense. It opens my eyes to a darker side of life. It’s is a typical Meghan O’Flynn book with amazing characters you want to love and shows the harshness of the world and what happens when those two meet.

The characters are light and fluffy on the surface. It’s the story behind their smile that get me. My main emotion was hope but then it turned to shock while reading. This is very smoothly written and easy to read and follow along. All of this easily draw me into the story and the “unknown” keeps me coming back.

I was left with a few unanswered questions. Things I couldn’t figure out how they happened. I could have missed the answers but I’m not sure. Still a freakishly good story.

It is always a great and exciting adventure to take whilst reading a novel of Megan O’Flynn’s. There isn’t a book of her’s that I haven’t devoured yet so when I saw the new release blitz for this one I couldn’t wait to get my hands on it! The countdown was one of great anticipation, and Ms. O’Flynn did not disappoint. If you are new to Megan O’Flynn’s work then you are in for a super mind-bending and blood-tingling story that will keep you entertained from the very first words to the epic and unexpected ending. (Something that Megan seems to be superb as writing!)

Meeting Deputy Sheriff William Shannahan was quite the experience. I truly enjoyed his character. He is determined to keep his quiet and quaint town just that When a killer is on the loose he has to step up his game, especially when the beautiful Cassie Parker, and her kid, are seemingly in the path of danger too.

The details are raw and rich, so much so that you feel as if you are right there with the cast of characters experiencing the book as it happens. This is actually one of my favorite things about the way that Megan O’Flynn writes. She really has the knack for bringing these worlds to life, it is quite unsettling, and in turn makes for a fantastic thriller novel. I personally can not wait to see what will come next from her. All I know is I will be the first in line! Thanks for another great thrill read Ms. O’Flynn!

It’s the story of Deputy Sheriff William Shannahan in Graybel, Mississippi, where the craziest thing that happens is a noise complaint. When a child is found murdered he has to come to the realization that there is a killer among them. Cassie Parker has a tortured past and she can’t help be have that creepy feeling that this killer is after her and William will do whatever he can to protect her and her child.

My Rating: 5 of 5 stars

Shadow’s Keep: A Novel by Meghan O’Flynn was dark, twisted, shocking and down right amazing!

Not my first read by this author, so I knew going in, that I was in for something crazy. I was not disappointed in the least. After binge reading and watching happy, heart melty Christmas books/movies, I needed this turn into the dark twisty, thriller verse. This book was truly the perfect kick off for the New Year.

There is so much going on in this book that I can’t just pick one thing to focus on, nor can I give anything away. This book like the authors other works, are full of small clues that you think insignificant; to shocking twists you don’t see coming, to of course, that heart pounding, breath catching ending that leaves you not only shocked, but for a moment, a little confused.

The attention to detail was on point, but it’s not something I’m shocked about, as this is a constant staple throughout the author’s works. What gets me is the ability to not only have shock factors that you don’t see coming, but the ability to grow them as the story moves forward. Each one plays on your mind, and you almost have to back track to see if you can catch were the author led you astray.

The characters, are well built and multi layered, they make this story real and it’s almost like you’re there, taking part rather than watching. This book is another masterful written thriller, from an amazingly talented author. And if you haven’t guessed, I give this book my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval.

Happy Reading

I loved this book! I love how this author has the ability to pull me in right from the beginning. The twists and turns left me sitting on the edge of my seat. I didn’t know what was going to happen next which made the suspense even more intense for me. This story took me on a journey of a string of murders and William the investigator. I loved his character and his ability to love despite what his past has done to him. This is a creepy, dark must read story you don’t want to miss!
