Ties That Bind
Jo McDaniels book 1
by Anne Patrick
| -From Goodreads- FBI agent Jo McDaniels has been called to her hometown of Claremont, Oregon, to help on a grisly serial murder case. As with most profilers, she is able to take the evidence, background of the victims, and crime scene photos, and reenact in her mind what took place between the killer and the victim. But what if there are no crime scenes and the victims have been decapitated in order to hide their identity? This is where Jo's unusual gift comes into play. Unlike other profilers in her field, she is able to sense what the victim felt prior to death. She not only feels their emotions, she feels their pain. Sheriff Austin Garrett doesn't quite know what to think of the beautiful and sassy profiler with a unique gift that defies all reason. He's willing to try anything, though, to stop the monster plaguing his community. But can Jo and Austin find the killer before he makes it even more personal? ASIN: B010WTLFK2 Does a serial killer walk beside them? I'm going to start off by saying that I loved Ties That Bind! It's by far my favorite Anne Patrick novel! OK, so maybe I've only 'read' four so far, but this one was great! It was chilling, it was riveting, it was creepy, it was gritty, it was gripping, it was engrossing, and it was even a little scary. |  This Book received a 5 Bark rating.

I started Ties That Bind with high hopes that it would be good story. I was not disappointed in the slightest. It reminded me of another series I loved, Kaely Quinn Profiler from Nancy Mehl, and also of Brandilyn Collins's Chelsea Adams books. So if you enjoyed any of those titles you should seriously check out this one from Anne Patrick.
There were a couple of points in Ties That Bind that annoyed me to no end, specifically how Jo's brother and mother blame her for things that she couldn't possibly be in control of. But, it shows how emotionally involved I got with the lead characters. The family drama and relationships were a really good way for Anne Patrick to bring everyday reality into a seriously spine-tingling tale.
Once again one of my absolute favorite narrators has brought an already good story to life in full technicolor. Listening to her read this story made my imagination take flight as only an audiobook or a person reading aloud can do. As you can probably guess already, the production quality was very good. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this book to any fan of gritty Christian romantic suspense.
