Kara Knight can’t wait to leave her hometown for the promise of nursing school and a fresh start on her future–leaving behind an over protective mother, a broken heart and painful memories. However, twenty-five miles away, the twin she doesn’t know exists is determined to be reunited with the sister he cannot forget.
Kara is abducted and thrown into her obsessive captor’s delusional world. As the past she thought she knew unravels around her, Kara struggles to make sense of the memories that come creeping back, threatening her sanity and her safety. Meanwhile, Kara’s mother races against time to save the daughter she fears she will lose when a long-held secret is revealed. The hours tick away as her captor plays out his plan–to take Kara with him into death at the exact moment of their birth, never to be separated again.
TRACES OF KARA is an action packed, pulse pounding psychological thriller/suspense novel that features a determined killer who slowly loses his grip on reality as his carefully detailed plan starts to fall apart and a heroine determined to move forward with her life who now must reconcile everything she believed to be true about her family with the reality of their tragic past.

My Review
This was a true take your breath away thriller! I was a little concerned in the first chapter or so, the story does start a bit slowly, but it turns out that it is vital to the rest of the story having such an impact. This story is so realistic and so plausible that it will shake any reader to their core. Kara lives a fairly boring life and can’t wait to get away to the big city to go to nursing school. Little does she know what’s in store for her. A lie told to protect her winds up causing her a lot of pain and terror. The bad guy in the story is so bad that you don’t even have any place for sympathy for him. He’s just crazy and bad! Sometimes bad stuff happens to good people, and this book brings that home to the reader. There was a really great, creepy, ending too. This will definitely be on my favorites list for a long time to come!
