Description
Abby pointed the beam of her Maglite at the severed body inside the SUV. Staring into the victim’s cold, dead eyes she flashed on a name – a name that sent a terrible chill deep into her bones: Elizabeth Short, aka The Black Dahlia.
Abby Kendall, a firebrand Chicago homicide detective, investigates. Tough, resolute, and emotionally vulnerable, she soon uncovers a string of five other macabre murders – in big cities with NHL franchises, like Chicago. Crimes that appear to be the work of a shockingly brilliant serial killer. As Remember The Monsters barrels forward, Abby’s relentless pursuit of justice leads her down a path far darker and more sinister than anything she thought imaginable: evidence points to one of pro hockey’s superstars as the prime suspect. His name is Shane Donnelly – Abby’s estranged husband.

From the moment I started reading, I was gripped by the tension and mystery surrounding Abby Kendall's investigation. Abby, a tenacious Chicago detective, is the kind of character you can't help but root for – strong, determined, and haunted by her past. As she uncovers a chilling trail of macabre murders, the story takes unexpected twists that kept me hooked.
The way Neal weaves history into the narrative, connecting the present-day crimes to the infamous Black Dahlia case, adds a layer of intrigue that I couldn't resist. The pacing is relentless, and the chilling details of the murders are painted vividly, making this thriller an immersive experience.

A chilling and relentless thriller that grips from the very first page. The story follows Abby Kendall, a fiercely determined Chicago homicide detective with a haunted past. When she's confronted with a gruesome murder that eerily connects to a notorious historical figure, Elizabeth Short, the Black Dahlia, Abby's investigation kicks into high gear. As she delves deeper, the discovery of a series of similar murders across NHL cities reveals a twisted and meticulous pattern.
Neal crafts a pulse-pounding narrative that keeps readers on the edge of their seats. The tension is palpable as Abby races against time to unravel the mysteries shrouding the killer's motives and methods.
