This Fallen Prey
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
In This Fallen Prey, the next installment of New York Times bestselling author Kelley Armstrong's thriller series, Casey Duncan is about to face her toughest job as police detective in Rockton yet.
When Casey first arrived at the off-the-grid town, an isolated community built as a haven for people running from their pasts, she had no idea what to expect, with no cell phones, no internet, no mail, and no way of getting in or out without the town council's approval. She certainly didn't expect to be the homicide detective on two separate cases or to begin a romantic relationship with her boss. But the very last thing she expected was for the council to drop a dangerous criminal into their midst without a plan to keep him imprisoned, and to keep others safe.
Of course Oliver Brady claims he's being set up. But the longer Brady stays in town, the more things start to go wrong. When evidence comes to light that someone inside Rockton might be working as his accomplice, helping him to escape, Casey races to figure out who exactly Brady is and what crimes he's truly responsible for committing.
In the next page-turning entry in Kelley Armstrong's gripping series, life in Rockton is about to get even more dangerous.

At the outset of bestseller Armstrong’s gripping third novel set in the Canadian Yukon (after 2017’s A Darkness Absolute), the council members who manage Rockton, the off-the-grid refuge for those needing to disappear, receives Oliver Brady, an accused murderer they’ve agreed to take in exchange for a large sum of money from a classified source. Unprepared to house a dangerous criminal, Rockton’s residents scramble to build a facility to imprison him. But they’re split on whether Brady is innocent and being mistreated, or a risk to others; riots, maybe even a lynching, threaten to erupt. When Brady escapes with the help of a town insider, he leaves a trail of carnage in his wake, and Det. Casey Butler and her boss, Eric Dalton, face difficult decisions—and the perils of the wilderness—in their effort to restore peace and security to Rockton. The empathetic central characters grapple with the nature of violence and the choices they’re willing to make to protect loved ones. Armstrong delivers surprising twists and keeps readers guessing about who the next victim might be. Agent: Helen Heller, Helen Heller Agency (Canada).

A reclusive sanctuary community plays reluctant host to a dangerous criminal who appears to collude with one of their own to extend his murderous spree.Adjusting to Rockton has taken time for Casey Butler, who left her old life for the off-the-grid Yukon town not long ago. Since moving to Rockton, Casey's become a detective with the three-person police force and helped solve more than one unusual murder case (A Darkness Absolute, 2017 etc.). Rockton is like no other community, having been founded to assist people who need to hide out. With the help of her romantic partner and supervisor, Sheriff Eric Dalton, Casey has become aware that some of the residents are paying the community to hide from crimes they've committed. So maybe Casey and Eric shouldn't be surprised when their latest supply drop includes a bound and gagged Oliver Brady, whose stepfather offers the town council $1 million to shelter him for six months. Before Eric and Casey can refuse or even learn about the nature of Oliver's crimes, the supply helicopter has taken off, leaving Rockton with its most dangerous resident yet. Oliver is highly manipulative and determined to play residents against each other to get his own freedom. And in spite of the vigilance of Casey, Eric, and the ad hoc town militia, Oliver escapes into the woods, leaving Rockton inhabitants and residents of the surrounding area (known as "hostiles") equally unsafe until Casey and Eric can identify Oliver's ally on the inside.Armstrong continues to expand the highly original Rockton world, focusing this time more on the precipitating events rather than the overarching series back story.COPYRIGHT(2017) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

The third Rockton novel is perhaps the best yet. Readers unfamiliar with Rockton, a very small town in the Yukon, need to know that, technically, it doesn't exist. Rockton was built as a hideaway for people who need to escape from their lives for a while; it has almost no electricity, no internet, no modern conveniences (well, very few). Its residents, including homicide cop Casey Duncan, have something to hide. There's not much in the way of crime in Rocktonpeople mostly keep to themselvesbut, when the council decides to allow accused serial killer Oliver Brady to come to town, Casey fears the worst. And when a sniper apparently takes a shot at the new arrival, using a rifle out of the town's own armory, she wonders: Is someone in Rockton trying to kill Brady, or is someone working with Brady to take out the town's other residents? Brady's continued protests that he's innocent only serve to muddy the waters. A crisply written thriller that keeps readers guessing, much in the manner of Adam Sternbergh's The Blinds (2017).(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2018, American Library Association.)
