About this audiobook

A peaceful Minnesota town, where crime is something that just doesn’t happen, is about to face its worst nightmare. A young boy disappears. There are no witnesses, no clues—only a note, cleverly taunting, casually cruel. Has a cold-blooded kidnapper struck? Or is this the reawakening of a long-quiet serial killer?

A tough-minded investigator on her first, make-or-break case… A local cop who fears that big-city evils have come to stalk his small-town home… Together they are hunting for a madman who knows no bounds, to protect a town that may never feel safe again.

“Tami Hoag is the queen of the crime story.” —New York Post

    When an eight-year-old boy goes missing from a small Minnesota town in the dead of winter, Special Agent Megan Malloy works to assist Mitch Holt, the town's chief of police, in locating him. She's newly promoted to the position as the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension's (BCA) regional agent and as the first woman in that role, she's also got a lot to prove.
    There was a lot going on in this story in addition to solving the abduction. Megan has a fast and firm rule against dating cops and with sexism running rampant, she can ill afford a relationship with Mitch but they can't deny their attraction. He comes with quite a bit of baggage as well so this makes for a relationship already weighed down at the onset. Megan also has a huge boulder on her shoulder, borne from her own isolated childhood and career ambition. The parents of the abducted child are also at each other's throats as their precarious relationship starts tearing at the frayed seams. The local media has a separate agenda that interferes with the case and jeopardizes Megan's job. The town goes viral after one suspect after another is scrutinized.
    The notion that Deer Lake is a sleepy, safe little town is also turned on its end. Secrets abound and the town has to face its vulnerabilities while the abductor remains at large. This story isn't just about the case but the human condition and its inherent frailties. Many relationships are examined and there are no perfect people in this story and there are many surprises. It's intriguing and I had a tough time putting it down.
    Be forewarned that this is a two-book commitment as all is not resolved by the end of the story, which is a bit unfair. However, I had planned to read the second book, Guilty as Sin but not necessarily right away. Now, curiosity demands that I do so. Still, this book is worth it if you're interested in mystery, suspense, romance, and a somewhat literary approach to the very many characters in this story.

    Night Sins was a real page turner I really enjoyed it. The Characters were great and so was the storyline. Now on to the sequel Guilty as Sin!

    Would not recommend. Characters are boring, usually a fan of Hoag’s work …. but not of this one. Waaaay to much boring repetitive sex with boring main character

    I think it a sad literary parlor game to wrap a foolish sex novel around the sorrow and tragedy of child abduction.

    This book has a really good story it really kept me hooked... In order to say this I had to fast forwsrd the unnecessary sex scenes and the unrealistic and cringy relationship between mitch and megan, it just had nothing to add to the story at all. The book would easily been three chapters lighter without all the vomit worthy crap involving the two of them
    That said it is a good story somthing different and interesting and will keep you listening to find out what happens..

    Terrific book -- deep, dark mysterious. The author delves into the mind, the deviant, sick, dark recesses of the human mind. Not to mention some wicked sex scenes! Good stuff.

    This is the book that made me a lifelong fan of Ms. Hoag's work. Child abduction is a tough subject to address in a novel but she pulls it off. One suggestion-- Don't watch the Lifetime (I think) movie based on this book.

    This book was recomended to me by a friend that couldn't stop talking about it so I picked it up, I have to say that I was blown away by this story. The dark subject, twists and turns, but also the likability of the lead character and her obvious limitations and vulnerabilities. Tammy Hoag does such an excellent job pulling you into this story and it's characters, and, because they are so down to earth, you ride along beside them from beginning to end.

    This is the prequel to Guilty as Sin, and it was soooh good. I felt really gripped by what was going on and the suspense and tension never let up.
