A serial killer is on the loose in Amaryllis and 3 women
think they know who that killer is; the only problem is that each one thinks it
is a different person. Five women have been killed by the person the papers
have named “The Closet Killer.” There is no motive for the killings until the
most recent, which is the one that causes Cherry Mae, Deena, and Tully all to
suspect different men.
Cherry Mae has cleaned houses in Amaryllis for years. This
is the first time that she has ever snooped, and what she finds sends terror
through her old bones.
Everyone knows that Deena’s brother isn’t right in his head
and has a problem with his temper. When the police arrest him Deena is
determined to find out what actually happened even though she is afraid that
what they claim is true.
Tully married her husband Mike right out of high school much
to her parent’s disappointment. Now pregnant and facing the fact that Mike may
have been having an affair Tully doesn’t know where to turn when Mike comes
home with a different uniform on and blood is left on the doorknob of their
home.
The three women band together to compare notes and hopefully
find which one of their 3 suspects is the Closet Killer.
Gone To Ground was a great suspense that kept me turning the
pages until the very end. I didn’t know “whodunit” until the very end and
found the wrap-up extremely satisfying. I also liked how each of the women had a "voice" in the story. Chapters alternated between each one of their point of views.
