Outstanding read, I can't wait for the next one in this series
I listen to this on audio:The author grabs you from page one and keeps you on the edge through to the end.This is the second book in this series I have to say I am still a little torn between who to cheer for... the killer or the police. I know what Cara is doing is bad but I can't bring myself to not like her. I know Roarke must do his job hunt her and bring her in but for the life of my I can't bring myself to want the same thing. The author gives you such a compelling story of such pain one women trying to find justice and the FBI agent who is looking for her as he is pulled into a web of what to do. Can justice be served or will the hunt continue as Cara brings down monsters why protecting the people?Ms. Sokoloff paints a story of horrible crimes and the one person who is doing her best to bring them down while Agent Roarke is torn between what he must do and what he wishes he could do. This book takes off where book 1 leave off, with some intents and very graphic story lines. I have fast fell in love with her as a writer and will follow as she takes me on one heck of a ride on a whirlwind travel of justice being served. She gives us serious issues that will break your heart, you wish you could hold the characters and give them hope. Maybe make a few of their dreams come true. Her plots are outstanding and very believable, her writing style is out of this world as she gives you wonderful characters why she spins a compelling tale and keeps you on the edge of your seat cheering first one and then the other on the hunt for monsters who deserve to die. She gives you chilling scenes that will stay with you long after you have finish the read.She paints the picture in your mind of murder, blood that gave me chills why she writes from alternate points of view from the FBI agent and the woman he is chasing, being able to see the story from both sides which made an outstanding read.R.C. Bray as a narrator is outstanding he holds my interest and keeps me coming back for more as he brings my heart to my throat and give me visual of the bloody scenes along with the monsters that nature has given us. I love his many different voices at times I forget he is a man when I hear the women talking. His voice has chills going down my back as he held me on the edge not being able to put the book down. He gives just the correct amount of roughness to each character as he gives the softer side to the women.This ending will have you holding your breath as you say NO NO NO please NO only to find you saying it over and over again before the last word is read. It does have a happy ending but a sad one.I would have to say Cara is and will always be my hero but so is Roarke. I have never read a book where I have been so torn. What an ending I do have to say it is great but I am so torn on that as well....I highly recommend this series it gives you all the thrills and chills along with suspense and mystery you could ask for. This series has just blown me away....I can't wait for the next book in this series.

Very well done!
I thought that this book was very well done. This is the second book in the Huntress/FBI Thrillers series which is a series that really does need to be read in order. This book picks up shortly after the events in the first installment in the series with Special Agent Roarke still trying to capture Cara. I was quickly pulled back into this ongoing story and had a really good time with it.Cara Lindstrom was the only survivor of a murderer known as The Reaper when she was just a young child. She is now also a murderer and wanted by the FBI. Her crimes have been committed against those that have harmed or are in the process of harming others. It is next to impossible to feel regret over the lives she has taken but Roarke is determined to bring her in.Roarke intends to set a trap for Cara and stumbles upon a crime much larger than he thought possible. I was completely pulled in by this story and had a great time trying to figure out how everything would work out and what the FBI's next move would be. There was a lot of action and the story moved at a pretty fast pace. I liked the profiling aspect of the story and thought it added a really interesting aspect to the story.R.C. Bray did a fantastic job with the narration. For some reason, his voice just seems perfect for this kind of story. He was able to really bring the story to life and did a great job with all of the character voices. I really like the quality of his voice and found that I wanted to listen to this book for hours at a time.I would recommend this series to others. I think that this is a very well done mystery that kept me guessing paired with great characters and enough action to keep things interesting. I am looking forward to listening to the next book in the series very soon.I received a digital review copy of this book from Thomas & Mercer via NetGalley and purchased a copy of the audiobook.

Compelling read
The first book was good, the second was better, I'm almost afraid to read the third in case it disappoints! I doubt it though. Plot upon plot, storylines that twists and weave, keeps you guessing all the way through. A great read.

Very good read
Following on from the first book i was keen to continue the read. This book immediately gained my attention and became difficult to put it down. The story had several twists and the ending leaves you needing to go to book 3 in this series. I am ready to find out more on Cara and what the law will decide in regards to her activities.

Sehr gut geschriebener Dreiteiler!
Sehr gute und spannende Story, bereits im 1. Buch war ich so gefesselt, dass ich unbedingt Teil 2 und 3 auch lesen wollte.

la trilogia regge / quite a good second book of three
ma questo secondo volume è meno teso del primo, e le ripetizioni abbondano, allo scopo, forse, di arrivare, appunto, ai 3 libri. Perché se c'è (ed è molto amata) la trilogia in 5 volumi, in 2 forse sarebbe meno apprezzata. Comunque, la storia tiene, ed è (fin troppo) ben costruita, i personaggi sono sempre scarni ma ben delineati, c'è solo un cambio di scena un po' troppo inatteso, poco sostenuto dal resto della narrazione, ma perdonabile. Ormai leggerò anche il terzo, devo capire se e come si risolve questa che potrebbe anche essere la storia di un'ossessione, se non restasse un po' troppo in superficie per esserlo davvero. Lettura in ogni caso piacevole.This second book of the FBI trilogy is a little less engaging of the first, and there are some repetitions. The plot is very well put together (maybe even too much, each scene arriving right when you expect it), though there is a twist not so much unexpected as somehow dropped into the plot, characters are simple but full. I'm going to read the third book, too, I want to know the proceedings of this story, which could be the history of an obsession, if only it was a bit deeper. Anyhow, a nice read.

Absorbing thriller
Enjoyed the first one in the series (which is a must read before starting this one) and this was more of the same. FBI agent Roarke and his team are hunting Cara Lindstrom, the vigilante, and it's hard not to root for both of them, especially as Roarke can't make his mind up about Cara. After all, he's hunting baddies and she's killing baddies, where's the problem?Whilst trying to track down Cara, the FBI team unearth a recent murder that bears the hallmarks of the Reaper, the murderer responsible for the massacre of Cara's family 25 years earlier. This adds another twist to the chase and drives the plot as much as the hunt for Cara.Readers who enjoyed Huntress Moon will undoubtedly enjoy Blood Moon. It's written in a fast paced and easy to read style which helps to disguise any flaws. Like many thrillers, sometimes it stretches things and gets a bit silly, but the urge to keep on reading is very forgiving. Not the most high brow of novels, but absorbing and enjoyable - which works for me.
