Devil’s Cove was supposed to be safe. Until a killer was unmasked—and the truth became more horrifying than anyone imagined.
As the Cornish community reels from the discovery of a predator hiding behind a familiar face, Carrie is desperate to find her missing son, Cal—now implicated in the crimes. But she’s not the only one searching for him.
A dangerous cult has emerged from the shadows, determined to protect their secrets at any cost. And crime writer Aaron Black has arrived in town, desperate to save his career by exposing the truth. But his hunt for answers could cost more lives than it saves.
Because the nightmare is far from over. And for Carrie and her family, the worst is yet to come.
Desperation Point is the gripping second book in the Devil’s Cove Trilogy, packed with twists, chilling revelations, and heart-pounding suspense.
