A Fun and Gripping Read

This book is about Leigh, a top-notch serial criminologist with a ton of skeletons in her closet. She's called in to help solve a college student's murder, only to find out it’s a repeat of a murder that happened 18 years ago—when she was a student at the same campus.

The author really brings Leigh to life, showcasing her struggles and resilience, and throws in a bit of romance to spice things up. Leigh’s need to survive her traumatic past is front and center, making her journey all the more gripping. While some plot points are a bit predictable, the book keeps you hooked from start to finish. Overall, it’s a good read.

This was a strong third entry in the Leigh Brody FBI Mystery series, it had that element that I was looking for and enjoyed from the previous two books. The characters were everything that I was looking for and was glad I was able to get back in this world. Nichole Severn has a strong writing style and was glad I was able to read this.

Wow, this was my first time reading a Nichole Severn book and it won't be the last!

The setting of this book is exciting and the characters are likeable. The action is intense and thrilling, I held my breath multiple times. I found the twist to be quite satisfactory, even though this genius did figure it out before the end. 😅

I can only hope for more of Agent Brody in the future!

Highly recommend if you like FBI thrillers, strong female leads, isolation/trapped tropes, a good twist or if you're just looking for a great book to read!

What a wild ride this book was. There were so many twists and turns. I found myself holding my breath a few times. There’s lots of action and suspense. I was glued to the pages. The writing is phenomenal. 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.

NICHOLE. My heart. The emotional roller coaster you have sent me on with this one!

Once again, Leigh Brody is phenomenal in all she does. Even more character growth for her, which was amazing, and made me so happy for her. But I desperately need for her taste in men to improve.

I kept getting hints of a bad guy in Ford, but then I would turn around and love him. I was rooting for him and cheering Leigh on for being open to a love interest. I could not make up my mind on where I stood with Ford. He was too good to be true, but then would get weird out of nowhere. The truth behind that…..never saw it coming. This was a new twist and I did not pick up on the ever so obvious hint you gave. Bravo, madam.

I want to like Ava, but I was a young child when I experienced loss and trauma, so I can understand her bratty attitude at times. I just wish Leigh would talk to her about her life so Ava could get a better understanding of where Leigh’s head is at with her job. But I am thankful that their relationship didn’t stay the same!

I know it’s really early of me to be asking this…but do you have more for Leigh Brody?!

I was entrusted a copy of this book by Netgalley and Storm Publishing. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

The past and present collide in this new addition of Leigh Brody FBI Mystery.

This series gets better with every new storyline. Leigh is one tough Agent. She sees things that no one else sees. Patterns that lead straight to the killers. So much suspense to keep you on edge. I will say I did figure out the bad guy before the reveal.

I can’t wait to see what fantastic adventure comes next.

Thank you for allowing me to review this book. It is another excellent, tense thriller from Nicole Severn. The third in a series with FBI agent Leigh Brody. Each one has got better than the previous book. Although it can be read as a standalone, I would read them in order. This has several twists and turns in the story but I did begin to identify the culprit before the end.
I look forward to reading more of Leigh and Ava as she pursues law enforcement.

I absolutely could not put this one down! Totally fast paced, full of all the secrets and lies..

Thank you NetGalley for the advanced copy in exchange for my honest review!

Highly recommended Thanks to NetGalley and to the publishers of this book for giving me a free advance copy of the book to preview and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Leigh is FBI and the mother of a newly adopted teenager, the daughter of her best friend who is in prison for murder. She is sent to New Hampshire when a murder at the college there shows ties to a case she was involved in during her time there. She alibied the suspected killer then, but was she wrong?
This story hooked me from the very start and I had to keep reading to find out what happened next. She and her daughter no sooner get to New Hampshire and a hurricane blows in. No power, no phone service, and a school full of trapped students adds to the tension. More killings occur and Leigh is busy trying to to stay alive and figure out the case.
The Killer She Knew is book #3 in the Leigh Brody series, but it works well as a stand alone. Now I am looking forward to going back and reading the first two!
Thanks to Storm Publishing and NetGalley for the ARC.

This is one of the best series ! Leigh is back !! Leigh is called to the sign of the death of a college student that has characteristics of a long ago murder of another college student. The murder suspect was alibied by Leigh. Is he back killing or is this a copy cat? Did Leigh make a mistake and he's back? Love the mystery and suspense. Great series.

Gripping, thrilling and fast-paced Leigh has to figure out if her nightmare from the past is back. Just when you think you are close to catching the killer when you get a plot twist.

Oh my gosh, The Killer She Knew by Nichole Severn is absolutely gripping! From the very first page, I was hooked, and it was nearly impossible to put this book down. The story is packed with so many unexpected twists and turns that it kept me guessing right up until the end.

If you're a fan of thrillers or crime dramas, you definitely don’t want to miss this one. It’s the kind of story that stays with you long after you’ve finished reading. I would highly recommend The Killer She Knew to anyone looking for a thrilling and unforgettable read!

There were definitely moments that had me hooked. There was some predictability, but overall I enjoyed the story and will make a point to seek out the first two books in the series.

I've been fortunate to receive all 3 of the Leigh Brody series as ARCs. Unfortunately, this one was my least favourite of the 3. I found it quite predictable and a couple of things rubbed me the wrong way. First, every time Ava is mentioned, she's referred to as Leigh's adopted daughter. Yes, she adopted her, but as someone very close to several adoptees, I wish she was just referred to as her daughter or as her new daughter.
Second, it was mentioned fairly early in the book that the killer was able to impersonate a police officer and the only way the officer's partner knew is when the imposter put in contacts and rooted for a different sports team. I'm sorry but the idea a cop wouldn't know their partner was a completely different person is ridiculous.
I found The Killer She Knew to be quite predictable.
I do hope there are more books to this series, but I hope they are more believable than this one.

Wow, Leigh sure knows how to catch a killers eye. Another old case that is mixed with a new one gets her back in the thick of things.
This action packed, crime book has you on edge and its puzzle after puzzle to figure out who is behind it and there is absolutely no way you find out until your supposed to figure it out, meaning when Nichole Severn is ready to reveal it!

An interesting thriller where Leigh has to face a scenario she believes she has seen the same situation before. But is the Keller the same? So many twists to keep you thinking and all this alongside the emotions of Leigh having become the parent of a traumatised teenager. Beautifully written

This is an actual thriller, no doubt about it! The most important thing about the story is that
there is no reason to feel badly if you did not figure everything out ahead of the storyline because
it is every bit as terrifying,, nerve wracking and well written either way. To focus on my favorite part,
we go right to the end and send our girl on a long over due date having. been fussed over. by her
new.y adopted daughter (a complete storyline there) ~ who, while Leigh is still in hospital, has
called her Mom ❤️. I cannot wait for the next adventure.
My thanks to Storm Publishing via. NetGalley for the download copy of this
book for review purposes.
