Loading... See No Evilby Allison Brennan
None. This installment in the "Evil" trilogy (Speak No Evil, See No Evil, Fear No Evil) centers around Julia Chandler an assistant district attorney and Conner Kincaid, brother to Carina Kincaid and former police officer. Julia and Chandler have a history and it's not a happy one since it centers on the time when he resigned from the police force. But Julia's niece, Emily, is in trouble and Conner has helped out before as a private eye to help find Emily and Julia needs him now since Emily's stepfather has been murdered and Emily looks like the prime suspect. Julia, Conner and Conner's brother Dillon work together to sort out some strange happenings in their area and track down the killers to help prove Emily's innocence. On the way to that end, Julia and Conner have to work through their feelings from the past and the feelings that they are currently feeling. Loaded with suspense with a side of romance, plus characters you really like, See No Evil is a great read from start to finish. EAch time I set this book down, I couldn't wait until I could pick it up next and see what Julia and Conner would do. The mystery is intricately woven and very enjoyable to try and figure out. The crimes and the subject matter are dark and handled very realistically but you don't feel bogged down by the whole plot. These characters will stay with you for awhile as well as the circumstances in which the crimes were committed. Ms. Brennan has another winner on her hands and I'm only sorry I didn't read this earlier! Similar to Hear no Evil by the same author. Easy read with some sick moments. What can you expect from books about psychopaths? Book 2 in the evil trilogy & in this book we meet Connor Kincaid, an ex-cop turned private investigator. Julia Chandler, Deputy District Attorney, and instrumental in having Connor forced off the police department five years ago, needs his help in proving her niece, Emily's innocence. Emily is being accused of brutally killing her step-father, Judge Montgomery who had sexually abused her. An online group called "Wishlist" where troubled teens express their anger & how they'd kill the person, starts fulfilling the wishes. Connor has never forgiven Julia for her hand in his being forced to resign from the police, but as they rush to try & prove Emily's innocence, they are able to work through some past issues. no reviews | add a review

Other people are being murdered. An online group of troubled teens called “Wishlist” seem connected in some way.
I enjoyed the first book “Speak No Evil” and couldn’t wait to read this second book. I found once that I hit the half way mark in this book I got lost. I had trouble remembering who was who. Even at the end when it all came together I didn’t quite understand all the connections. Maybe it is just me, but I liked the first book so much more. I am looking forward to the third book in the trilogy though. (
