 Detective Casey White: Book 13
Publication Date: July 18, 2025
The beads of saltwater caught on her cracked lips glitter in the moonlight, her long brown hair floating in the tide. But this beautiful girl is lost forever. And Casey’s biggest fears are realised. Someone is copying the worst of her previous cases: following her like a shadow. And they’ll stop at nothing to make sure she pays for her own mistakes…
As her soon-to-be-husband, Jericho Flynn, goes back to work as town sheriff, Detective Casey White is left juggling her work alongside her growing family. And when a spate of troubling murders hit the Outer Banks, the happy couple are stopped in their tracks…
Casey is called to a crime scene with eerie echoes to a killing she solved years ago. A young woman has been anchored to a boulder and drowned, just like in the Saltwater Graves murders.
Then a handwritten poem is delivered to Casey at the station. She immediately recognises the writing as that of a previous victim she couldn’t save. The killer is pointing them to yet another crime scene from Casey’s past. Only someone with knowledge of the original cases could recreate these murders with terrible accuracy. And the only link is Casey herself.
The team chase the lead to a now-derelict beach house, way out on an abandoned island. Casey is totally devastated when they discover the lifeless body of Jericho’s late wife, Jessie Flynn, posed in one of the upstairs rooms.
This is her most personal challenge yet. As they chase down a killer that could be closer than they ever imagined, will Casey and Jericho both make it out alive?
Shadow on Her Grave is a gripping and addictive mystery thriller that fans of Kendra Elliot, Lisa Regan and A.J. Rivers won’t be able to put down!
One last case stands between Detective Casey White and a new life dedicated to a soon-to-be husband and children.
However, this case brings back awful memories of previous cases that seem to be being recreated. Casey and the team must unravel the clues as the body count rises.
Shadow on Her Grave marks the 13th installment in the series created by B.R. Spangler. While each book is designed to be read as a standalone, you will want to read them in sequence to see the characters’ development.
In addition to the investigative aspect, the author builds a continuing narrative regarding Casey and her fiancé, Jericho. Both characters have their share of baggage, with a haunting chapter from Jericho’s past woven into this book.
The killer’s brutal techniques hide a meticulously planned sequence of attacks designed to send a message that might end Casey’s dreams of a happily ever after.
Shadow on Her Grave serves up another investigation full of danger and adventure in this successful series.
