Dive into the depths of fear with an exciting new romantic suspense novel, Beneath the Surface. This gripping tale from award-winning author Lynn H. Blackburn will capture readers from the first page and won’t let them go until the final, heart-pounding scene.
After a harrowing experience with an obsessed patient, oncology nurse practitioner Leigh Weston moves home to Carrington, North Carolina, to leave behind her troubled past. But when someone tampers with her brakes, she fears the past has chased her into the present.
Homicide investigator Ryan Parker finds fulfillment in his career, but his favorite way to use his skills is as a volunteer underwater investigator with the Carrington County Sheriff’s Office dive team. When the body of a wealthy businessman is discovered in Lake Porter, the investigation uncovers a possible serial killer—one with a terrifying connection to Leigh Weston and deadly implications for them all.

Beneath the Surface starts off with a bang when a body is discovered, get this, beneath the surface of a lake. But while this gruesome find is mysterious, the overall story is about one woman, who is targeted to be the next victim, and one man, who does everything in his power to make sure that doesn’t happen. The situation appears helpless, hopeless, and downright dangerous, and time is running out.
Leigh and Ryan are friends from childhood, but recent events have thrown them together as adults. As the threats against Leigh escalate, the romantic sparks begin to fly between these two, adding another exciting layer to the already tense situation.
The characters and plot are well developed, and the author has crafted a fast-paced story that hits the ground running and doesn’t let up until the last page.
The best part about Beneath the Surface is the overall message of how you really don’t know the people with whom you work or come in contact throughout your life. This aspect is the real horror of the story because people aren’t always what they seem. The truth of people’s personalities and motives is sometimes just beneath the surface.
Leigh doesn’t make enemies, so why is someone trying to kill her? Read Beneath the Surface to find out the thrilling details for yourself. I have to admit I thought the killer was someone else. I was convinced page after page, but oh how wrong I was. Well done, Lynn H. Blackburn!
