As usual Allison Brennan has written a mystery/thriller that just begs the reader to keep turning the pages! The Quinn and Costa series is a series I look forward to and the book never fails to entertain. This particular book was about a cult and was a little dark but did not affect the storyline. And so many twists. Every time I thought I had it figured out something happened so I realized I hadn’t picked the right ending. I certainly never saw the actual ending coming! This book and series would be enjoyed by anyone who likes a good mystery or thriller. . I received an arc of this book from NetGalley and the publisher. All opinions expressed are my own.

So happy to be back with Quinn and Costa. This case takes the team all over the United States to figure out. This case has a lot of twists and turns. Once you think you have figured everything out, the story moves in another direction. This book was hard to put down, and I am happy that we had another story in this series. I am looking forward to more books in this series.

Sadly did not finish at 25%. There were so many characters I lost track of who was who and what their job titles were. Sad because I have read others by this author but this one just had too much going on right from the start.

Kara, Matt, and the team are back. They have some grizzly murders that are leaving them confused. This is a highly charged book. It’s full of suspense and mystery. The writing is great. It had twists and turns that kept me very focused on the clues. It was a great read. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced free copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own. I received a copy from the publisher through NetGalley.

Another amazing book by Allison Brennan! I haven’t read all of the books in this series beforehand yet I was still able to enjoy it. I will definitely be reading the couple I have missed. I love how she writes her characters and how they progress through the series and new cases. This is definitely a book you won’t want to put down!

See How They Hide by Allison Brennan was an okay read for me. It was kind of long and a bit repetitive. I didn't really connect with the characters in this book, and the scenes sometimes felt flat, and I found my mind wandering while I was reading the story.

Two people were murdered at the exact same time, in the same gruesome manner, and their bodies were covered in the same red poppies.

With Detective Kara Quinn investigating in Oregon and Special Agent Matt Costa in Virginia, the Mobile Response Team digs deep to uncover more about each victim.

The premise sounded really good, and the overall story was engaging; I just couldn't really connect with the characters and didn't find the story as page-turning as I would have liked.

I will read more by this author and in this series. I would recommend this book.

Thank you so much to NetGalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing/Mira for allowing me to read this ARC!

Allison has been a favourite author of mine for several years. I knew I would love this book but I didn't realize how much I ended up loving it!

I have always been fascinated by cults and off grid situations. I really think Allison nailed the balance between the community and the evil lurking within. I really felt for the characters we met in this book, while enjoying the MRT crew as their stories developed further.

This book was a bit darker than I have read previously by Brennan, but I could not get enough! I was sad as I got closer to the end, and I cannot wait for the next one in the Quinn and Costa series!

I could have sworn I wrote a review but apparently not. Thank you #NetGalley for the ARC and also for your patience as some of us are more scatterbrained than the others.

The novella starts of strong. "Margo Angelhart was recently certified as a private investigator, but she isn’t convinced that it’s her calling. All of her cases have been minor, mostly for family and haven’t paid the bills. She’s more than happy to keep bartending and figure out her post-military career later. That is, until prosecutor Andy Flannigan walks into her bar and offers her a case she can’t turn down…" Excerpt from the book.

I am looking forward to a strong woman series (again) Thank you @AllisonBrennan. I liked that we are introduced to Margo's family. I foresee more books in the future possibly covering the siblings as well.

Now about the story :) Good, solid PI work. Now go get the book. You won't be sorry.

Thank you to Harlequin-MIRA and NetGalley for a DRC of this book.

The Quinn and Costa series continues to impress! I loved the latest entry, See How They Hide, which follows Quinn and Costa as they investigate the mysterious deaths of former members of a cult. Eagerly awaiting the next book in the series, and will definitely recommend this one to my patrons!

Fast paced, action packed. Characters hard to sort out at first but it did all come together. Interesting story line and satisfactory ending.

I love all Allison Brennan books and series. I especially like Quinn and Costa. Two people were murdered on different sides of the country and it’s up to Kate and Matt to solve this mystery. I highly recommend this book and series.

Matt, Kara and the team is back in a new Quinn and Costa book! I absolutely love the team and enjoy every book in the series. This book did not disappoint. I really do not think that Allison Brennan could write a bad book.

If you love the Quinn and Costa series as much as me, I'm sure you will love them.
There is a reason why Allison Brenna is known as the Queen of Crime Fiction!

Thanks to NetGalley and MIRA for the chance to read an advance copy in exchange for an honest review.

Allison Brennan is one of my favorite authors. I have enjoyed everything I’ve read by her. The Quinn/Costa series is definitely a favorite. The author writes characters you believe in and want to read more about. Now I wait (impatiently) for her next book.

SEE HOW THEY HIDE
Allison Brennan
On Sale JANUARY 7/25

This is the 6th book in Brennan’s QUINN & COSTA series and the first for me, but I will be going back for the others after reading this thriller.

Two people murdered on opposite ends of the country, at the same time, throats slashed and left covered in blood red poppies. FBI Agent Matt Costa in Virginia and Agent Kara Quinn in Oregon, along with their teams are hell bent on trying to figure out the connection.

More and more bodies turn up, and the link seems to be Riley Pierce, the only person alive that can seem to put it all together. A great, fast paced thriller that had me reading it in one day.

I really love this series and was so excited when I saw this on Netgalley. I couldn’t wait to request it. This book didn’t disappoint, I am fascinated by the relationship of Quinn and Costa both on the job and at home. They really click and it shows their understanding of each other. I highly recommend this series and it helps to understand the relationships between the characters, if you start with book one.

I'm always super excited to be approved for Allison Brennan. She's a long time fave author and this latest installment in the Quinn and Costa series does NOT disappoint! This book dives into the cult mentality and is truly creepy. Don't miss this one!

Another out of the park hit for Brennan. Keep 'em coming please.
Thrilling next chapter in the Quinn, Costa & company FBI Special Task force stories.
LA Det Kara Quinn and the task force she is assigned to, are faced with one of their most
challenging cases to date: murders that are all committed in the same way, in different areas of
the country with the same signature souvenir. Hundreds of red poppies are left covering and
surrounding the victims.
As the task force splits and heads to different crime scenes, a possible witness surfaces with
intel on what is really happening here and the team goes on the hunt for an unknown cult
that has existed deep in the Rockies and off the grid for over 50 years,
Murder, stalking and pure terror abounds with one twist after another.
Great teamwork as always, with this group and the romance between Det Quinn and FBI team leader Matt Costa
is the quiet background thread that keeps the story down to earth and warmly strung together,
Terrific characters and interactions that jump right off the pages as the thrills keep coming and impel the
story forward and always alive and interesting.
Bravo, once again.
