It’s been 20 years since Chloe Davis’ dad was arrested for the murder of a series of teenage girls and she’s still struggling to recover from the events of her childhood. After all this time, she’s finally met a man that might be able to break through the distrust instilled by her father’s double life as a serial killer.

They’re working on wedding plans when a new series of copycat killings send Chloe into a spiral of paranoia. If she can’t put together the pieces and track down this new killer, she might lose her mind forever.

A Flicker in the Dark is one of those thrillers that keeps you guessing at the ending. After Chloe, there’s really only three characters: her fiancé, her brother, and the reporter investigating the murders. We know the killer is going to be one of these men. You’ll probably guess right, but not completely right.
