by Willow Rose (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.1 out of 5 stars (1,158)

A boarding school steeped in tradition.

A killer cloaked in darkness.

A campus paralyzed in fear.

For Detective Forrest, evil has a distinctive smell. When a young girl is found murdered, strung from a tree at a local boarding school, Forrest fears a connection to French revolution-era savagery.

But who among the students or teachers is capable of such dark evil?

Sara Damsgaard is in debt, newly widowed, and desperate to provide for her younger sister. Her new position as a boarding school headmistress seems like the perfect fresh start.

If it weren't for the brutal attacks sweeping through the student body.

To save the school, Forrest and Damsgaard team up to catch the killer.

When the trail of clues takes an unexpected turn, they come face-to-face with a sinister school tradition with the power to call forth a new reign of terror.

If you like thrilling mysteries, a little romance, and a hardboiled detective, then you’ll love Willow Rose’s suspenseful whodunit.

Buy In Cold Blood today to indulge in a dark mystery that will chill you to the bone.

    Sara and Emilie are sisters who have lost both their parents. Sara has also lost her husband, her soul mate. He left her set up for life, but Sara is so sad and lost that she let her so called friends lead her blindly into drinking and gambling. Needless to say she's now broke with some bad people after her who she owes money to. Now she not only has to worry how she's going to pay them back, she also has to worry how she's going to take care of Emilie who ahe is raising on her own. Out of the blue ahe gets a phone call. This school wants HER to be in charge! The pay is awesome! It's her second chance at doing things the right way.

    When she moves to the house that the school has provided for her and Emily it's perfect. The only downside is the unsolved murder that took place at the school three months earlier.

    This is book is about vampires. I don't usually read this kind of book, but the Queen of Scream Willow Rose wrote is so I gave it a try and I'm glad I did! Willow will pull you into each character and let you follow the plot that is well written. This book is a page turner that you just can't put down! I wish I could give it more than five stars because it deserves ten!

    I really liked the start of the book, and was eager to find out who killed the girl.
    Then it seemed to switch into an entirely different book and before I knew it, it was all about vampires.
    I wish that the blurb had indicated that this was not just a (human) mystery.

    I'm a newer fan of Willow Rose! I love the characters in this book. I hope to learn more in future books about them. Maybe their life stories on how they got to this point before this book began. Detective/Agent Forrest a Vampire seeks out crimes and can sense evil. He works hard hiding his true nature all the while ridding the world of his kind seeking their next meal. A new case of a horrific crime brutal beyond words against a girl from the campus boarding school needs to be solved. The criminal tore her body apart hanging her insides from a tree for all to see.
    Detective Forrest needs to solve this before more age old savages start to kill. He needs help to save the school. Sara Damsgaard dumped by her ex now with a young sister to raise looks like she can join in helping. After all she is the newest boarding school headmistress but does she want to start a career here after this killing? She must help to stop the attacks on the innocent. Can they use Emily's special powers of light help them bring justice to the school? This book has an easy flow and is a essay read. I can't wait to see what these characters do in the next book. Vampires and a sexy fanged detective? What's not to l9ve about this book? A must!

    4.0 out of 5 stars In Cold Blood: Detective Forrest Albu - a review by Rosemary Kenny
    Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2019
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    *slight spoilers*
    Detective Forrest Albu is no Kurt Wallander-like, Scandi-noir lawman. For a start, he's a vampire -albeit a Twilight/Robert Pattinson-alike one, as he doesn't kill humans to drink from - and secondly, he's more along the lines of a Van Helsing, as he's also a vampire hunter!!
    When a Danish boarding school welcomes a new young, (recently-widowed) headmistress, Sara and her young sister Eloise to its campus, it seems the beginning of a fresh era in the institution's history. Yet when gruesome murders start to take place among the students, questions are asked as to why the educational sanctuary for the children of the rich and famous is suddenly anything but, it takes the collaboration of both Albu and Sara, who must face up to the supernatural forces at work and that Albu will have all his abilities, as a detective and demon-hunter tested to the full.

    As ever, Queen of Mystery, Horror and Suspense Willow Rose plays deliciously terrifying tricks on your nerves, while tantalisingly revealing the development of the plot, she teases who the culprit is and what drives them to behave the way they do, before making you realise she had you completely fooled, as the truth is ultimately laid bare for your reading delectation - and bookshelves. Go get it!!

This book alone has shown me that this is an author that I definitely want to read more of. This was a great book that was well written And the characters were solid and you felt like you had known them for a long time. It kept My attention to the point that I read this book in less than 24 hours. And I still manage to get some housework done. I'm looking forward to reading more of her work in the near future.

    This book is a bit different from Willow Rose's usual thriller. I was happily surprised at the way she set up this story. I don't want to be a spoiler, so let me just say, you will be a good way into the book before you find out just what kind of creature you are reading about. She kept me on the edge of my seat trying to figure out where she was going with this story. Loved it.

    I had read a few excerpts from books by Willow Rose so I decided that, even though I am not normally a fan of the genre, I would try this book. I only got to read a little to know I was hooked. The story takes you through a tumult of emotions and I would recommend this book to anyone looking for an interesting twist on what I would call a supernatural thriller. Superb!
