Multi-million-copy bestselling author Willow Rose's new mystery series ensnares ex FBI profiler Eva Rae Thomas in a confounding murder case. When twelve-year-old Sophie Williams went on a Girl Scout summer camp, she never returned home. Three months later, her body is found inside her sleeping bag in the most frequented area of Cocoa Beach, and the town is outraged. The girl isn't just any child. She's the town's most beloved surf idol, and it was believed that she could be the next Kelly Slater. As another child, the son of a well-known senator is kidnapped, and the parents receive a disturbing video, FBI profiler Eva Rae Thomas - who has just returned to her hometown, divorced and out of a job - plunges into the investigation, breaking her promise to her children not to do police work again. Local law enforcement, with her old flame Matt Miller in charge, are the ones who ask for her help in a case so unsettling that only she can solve it. But the deeper they dig, the deadlier it becomes for Matt and Eva Rae. Soon, everyone she holds dear is in grave danger as this case hits a little too close to home. DON'T LIE TO ME is the first book in the Eva Rae Thomas Mystery Series and can be read as a standalone.

I like twists and turns as much as the next guy but they really shoe horned way too many into this. Each one more implausible than the last. And each character here is bad! People are complicated, and I don’t need to think my characters are all good people but if you are painting them as such at least give me more there!
Plus they gave you a weird anti medication for kids monologue.
Eva Rae Thomas' life is jam-packed and that is before she decides to go for a run. Going home again does not solve any of life's issues for Eva Rae in Don't Lie To Me. Willow Rose creates drama in a story that does not need any (laugh). Nothing is as it appears and even friends are keeping secrets.
I will confess to having read book six before reading any others in the “Eva Rae Thomas” series and not much time goes by between this first book and the sixth. There are a lot of personal adjustments for each character involved. Thomas is supposed to be retired from the FBI and writing books. Notice the usage of the verb “supposed to be” because if Eva Rae even leaves the house to say go for a run or opens the door to a long-time friend, trouble can find her. Bad for Eva Rae, but excellent for us.
Rose packs some real surprise whoppers in Don't Lie To Me. I cannot wait to see the fallout and what happens the next time Thomas opens the door or goes for a run. Willow Rose is a guaranteed name on my author must read list.
