      Thor Erickson is a local FBI agent that is based in Alaska. In a town known as Seward and in a hotel where a woman has just been murdered. A serial killer in at work killing and altogether a formal killer known to be the fairly tale killer has just escaped the prison and made his was into Alaska. Also has planed and invited TV show that in the Bear Island from there things began and first discovery of one of the two women that lost their life in the hands of the killers. Clara Avery is one of the entertaining people from the ship that were invited for what they call Gotcha but known to this TV people there is a killer who has taken this time to carry out their sickness killing and displaying the body of their victims with firm reality TV show.
      There are two twists with this book after Tate Morley is killed. They did not pay attention to the Ms. Emmy Vincenzo. The lady that everyone thinks was a victim in the hands of her employer. But unfortunately she is the master mind of that lead the ground work for the killer. She is the one who has been corresponding with Tate Morley.
      After the complete recovery of Ms Emmy Vincenzo called Clare Avery to pick her up and take her back to the Black Bear Island where she plans to kill her. But unfortunately for Clare Avery she was able to get away with the help of Amella Carson giving her the opportunity to get away. Buying her time until Thor Erikson came for her.
      Heather Graham have out did herself very interesting and quite the entertaining and engaging readers. This is another great and book. Love the story from beginning to the end was very exciting.
    • 5/5
      Deadly Fate, the newest Krewe of Hunter's novel, hooked me early and never let up. From the opening scene of (fictional) carnage to the denouement, the book kept me guessing and eagerly turning the pages to see if my guesses were right.

      Graham is really good at evoking an atmosphere, making a setting appealing, and then progressively ratcheting up the tension so the setting itself begins to feel menacing. In this case, though, while Alaska itself is certainly appealing enough, the fictional Black Bear Island is a scene of death and destruction almost from the start, and it remains ominous if the beautiful setting for much of the book.

      I was delighted to see Clara Avery get a leading role in Deadly Fate. I liked her in Haunted Destiny and suspected we might see her again when it became clear she could see ghosts. Several other members of Destiny’s entertainment contingent also appear; it was nice to see them again and it also offered at least a few trustworthy people for Clara to lean on. Thor is new to the series (to the best of my knowledge; I haven’t read them all), but he and Clara make a good pairing. I was less taken with some of the other characters, particularly Marc Kimball, the rather slimy billionaire who owns Black Bear Island, and some of the TV crew…but then, some of them aren’t intended to be sympathetic.

      The book has something of a “locked room mystery” feel to it, because although people do come and go from the island, the initial deaths must have been caused by someone on the island, probably by someone we’ve been introduced to. One of my few quibbles about Heather Graham’s books is that they often make logical leaps or contain plot holes, but Deadly Fate has fewer of these than most of the other Graham books I’ve read. There were one or two plot twists and explanations that felt a bit forced, but they were reasonably logical.

      I’ve talked before about my difficulty with reading about serial killers, but Deadly Fate steered clear of the things that seem to trigger my discomfort the most—I didn’t have to spend a lot of time in the killer’s head or analyzing his/her twisted psychology, and it wasn’t a situation where a close family member turns out to be a killer. (Incidentally, I have no idea why either of those things should trigger such anxiety and revulsion for me when I read about them; there’s nothing in my personal past that would account for it. It’s baffling.) Deadly Fate, despite the undeniable suspense and the rather gruesome deaths, kept things at enough of a distance that I could approach the mystery as a puzzle rather than be sucked into the terror of it all—which is how I prefer it, frankly.

      All in all, I think Deadly Fate is one of the better-constructed Krewe of Hunters books, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I’m already excited for Darkest Journey, the next book in the series.
