From #1 bestselling author Blake Pierce comes a heart-pounding new mystery series.
In the cornfields of Nebraska a woman is found murdered, strung up on a pole, the victim of a deranged killer. It doesn’t take long for the police to realize a serial killer is on the loose—and that his spree has just begun.
Detective Mackenzie White, young, tough, smarter than the aging, chauvinistic men on her local force, finds herself called in grudgingly to help solve it. As much as the other officers hate to admit it, they need her young, brilliant mind, which has already helped crack cold cases that had left them stumped. Yet even for Mackenzie this new case proves an impossible riddle, something the likes of which she—and the local force—have ever seen.
With the FBI called in, together, an intense manhunt ensues. Mackenzie, reeling from her own dark past, her failed relationships, and her undeniable attraction to the new FBI agent, finds herself battling her own demons as her hunt for the killer takes her to the darkest places of her mind. As she delves into the killer’s mind, obsessing over his twisted psychology, she finds that evil truly does exist. She only hopes it will not be too late to extricate herself from it, as her entire life collapses around her.
As more bodies turn up dead and a frantic race against time ensues, there is no way out but to find him before he kills again.
A dark psychological thriller with heart-pounding suspense, BEFORE HE KILLS marks the debut of a riveting new series—and a beloved new character—that will leave you turning pages late into the night.
Book #2 in the Mackenzie White Mystery series will be available soon.
Also available by Blake Pierce is ONCE GONE (A Riley Paige mystery—Book #1), a #1 bestseller!

Same old FormulaI read the Chloe Fine Series first because it’s a series and the order doesn’t matter. And after reading the reviews for both series, I’m so surprised no one has said it yet...this is the exact same plot line!! A dead parent. An estranged other parent. A relationship between sisters that’s frayed. A powerful female main character who is distracted by her failing love life. Like omg. I really dislike when authors have a formula they just plug the same info into and recycle throughout their books. Another thing, Chloe walks into a church and is surprised the book the priest is reading is the Bible. What idiot would be surprised to see this? Does she think priests read crime novels? Like cmon. Also, she must be living in a hole to not recognize the letters on the post were bible verses. Like duh. Very unbelievable storyline. If she’s a detective, she should know this stuff whether she’s religious or not. The thing that bothered me the most was the ending. It was super confusing. The killer says multiple times that his victim is naked and then she’s referred to as the victim in a pink bra. Where did her clothes magically appear from? Mackenzie also makes several references to being disrespected as a female cop and low and behold, her fellow male coworkers hold the door open for her. Is she grateful? Not at all. I was so disappointed with this book. I truly enjoyed the Chloe Fine Series but this is a series I will not be finishing..Score: 2/5

Poor editingJust as in his other book series, a Chloe Fine mystery, the author makes many editing errors. It wouldn’t be so hard to look past if it were grammar and punctuation alone but it is not. Characters names are often mixed up which greatly distracts from the story and lessens the overall reading experience..Score: 3/5

Good book, awful spelling and grammar.The book itself was really good. It was suspenseful and kept my attention. The problems I had with this book were the constant spelling and grammar mistakes. There were also mistakes in the story details. For example, in one part of the book it talks about a completely naked girl. A page or two later she magically has underwear on. Then, a page after that she magically has a bra on. Usually I understand if there are one or two mistakes in a book. Even that seems like laziness, but this book has so many mistakes! I highlighted over ten mistakes in spelling and grammar alone. Before publishing this book, the author and publishers should have fixed these mistakes. This makes me not want to purchase or read anything else coming from this company..Score: 3/5
Before He Kills was extremely interesting.Detective White faced job discrimination and had to fight for her place as well as solve a crime. I read it straight through in 2 hours, needing to know her conclusions on this case. Unfortunately, the cold case was just loose information thrown in there but never connected to the story line. However, the ending was sensational. There is a mistake in the entering the age of her mentor, saying he was a retired policeman who was 70 but looked 80. It notes the things he has done since retirement so his age should have been 80 in order to accomplish all that..Score: 5/5

So many typos, lacking depthNearly from the start the lead character was a cliche, tough woman cop trying to prove herself, failed relationships, gets removed from case, goes rogue, finds killer alone but fellow cops come to the rescue. So many typos and continuity errors. The first book in another of his series was nearly identical. Loads of typos. Tough women copy trying to prove herself, failed relationships, gets removed, goes rogue, goes in alone to find the killer, rescued and revered by male partner. Seems like the author has the ability to develop a good story but rushes through the content and story line, leaving a lot of gaps and predictable plot “twists”. Not enough depth to really make you like or care about the characters..Score: 1/5

Mackenzie White #1I enjoyed this tough heroine. The setup of her situation as a new, young detective cleverly detailed the serial killer’s MO—an interesting start to a book that keeps your interest. However, I needed more about the killer’s character and motivation, I wanted the prologue’s victim to be saved or know the resolution for her kids, and I wanted the easy outs to be more believable—the link to the 1987 murder didn’t resolve, the pastor’s sermon was too convenient, Porter tipped off by the FBI agent unnecessary (he should have got there on his own), and the gratuitous dumping of her relationship was unnecessary or not believable. In the future I’d like to see her solve her dad’s murder, stop worrying about how the old guard treats her as a woman, and just get on with kicking butt. She is fun to “watch” as she pieces clues together using her gut instincts. Lastly, I appreciated the nonjudgmental look at the plight of single mothers looking to raise their kids by any means possible. I’d like a happy ending for that 15-year-old orphan..Score: 4/5
