The Watson Girl
Tess Winnett Series Book 2
by Leslie Wolfe
Genre: Crime Thriller, Police Procedural
A GRIPPING SERIAL KILLER THRILLER
An entire family is murdered and, by a quirk, a young girl is left unharmed. For fifteen years, she believed the killer had been caught, and he’s now on death row, awaiting execution. While trying to be content with her adoptive family, she’s living in relentless uncertainty and the fear of remembering what really happened that night when she was five years old. She’s The Watson Girl.
A therapist has asked her to participate in regression session treatments to attempt to bring back those lost memories. The closer she gets to the truth, however, the less time she has to remain alive. Now, the real killer is going to silence her, before she can remember the details of that horrifying night, when she was an innocent witness.
Laura Watson is young, she’s beautiful, and she’s a serial killer's loose end.
Join the smart, relentless, and short-fused FBI Special Agent Tess Winnett and her team in a heart-stopping search for the serial killer who has managed to stay hidden for many years. Explore the inner workings of the murderer’s mind, and find out what motivates such predatory, blood-lusting behavior, while following every twist and turn of an existence spent taking lives.
Laura Watson’s family was murdered fifteen years ago.
That was only the beginning. His beginning.
If you’re the apple of his eye, you’re already dead.
Special Agent Tess Winnett will hold nothing back to stop the killer before he takes another innocent life. She never fails, no matter what’s at stake. Even her own life.
The best-selling author of Dawn Girl is back with another suspenseful, gripping thriller. If you’re a fan of David Baldacci and James Patterson, you will enjoy Leslie Wolfe.

5 stars
Wow! That's my first reaction.
This thriller had me bouncing back and forth between thinking I knew who the killer was and thinking I was totally wrong.
This novel is fast paced, and Tess, as a character, is very compelling. This is the first novel I've read by Leslie Wolfe, and now I find myself wanting more. What's Tess's backstory (is this in the first Tess novel?), what happens to the characters after we leave them, and just to have more.
It's a fast read, as you will find yourself, like me, unable to stop reading.
Hold onto your horses because this book will have you twisted around trying to figure out the intricate ins and outs. Just when you think you have things figured out, you start thinking that you don't know anything.
I can't say much without giving away too much of The Watson Girl by Leslie Wolfe, but I can say that this is a must read. 4.5 stars, the book will pull you in, shake you up, and make you question everything...just like a crime thriller should. The characters and story line are spot on, and surpassed all of my expectations. Pick it up today!
