In This Fallen Prey, the next installment of New York Times bestselling author Kelley Armstrong’s thriller series, Casey Duncan is about to face her toughest job as police detective in Rockton yet.

When Casey first arrived at the off-the-grid town, an isolated community built as a haven for people running from their pasts, she had no idea what to expect, with no cell phones, no internet, no mail, and no way of getting in or out without the town council’s approval. She certainly didn’t expect to be the homicide detective on two separate cases or to begin a romantic relationship with her boss. But the very last thing she expected was for the council to drop a dangerous criminal into their midst without a plan to keep him imprisoned, and to keep others safe.

Of course Oliver Brady claims he's being set up. But the longer Brady stays in town, the more things start to go wrong. When evidence comes to light that someone inside Rockton might be working as his accomplice, helping him to escape, Casey races to figure out who exactly Brady is and what crimes he’s truly responsible for committing.

In the next page-turning entry in Kelley Armstrong’s gripping series, life in Rockton is about to get even more dangerous.

"Armstrong continues to expand the highly original Rockton world." —Kirkus Reviews

"Armstrong delivers surprising twists and keeps readers guessing about who the next victim might be." —Publishers Weekly --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Kelley Armstrong believes experience is the best teacher, though she’s been told this shouldn’t apply to writing her murder scenes. To craft her books, she has studied aikido, archery and fencing. She sucks at all of them. She has also crawled through very shallow cave systems and climbed half a mountain before chickening out. She is however an expert coffee drinker and a true connoisseur of chocolate-chip cookies.

Best so far in series

Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2020

Verified Purchase

This was definitely the best of the first 3 in the series so far. I'm not belittling books 1 or 2, this one felt like she really understood her characters, the setting, the motivators, and her world building was really firing on all cylinders. Our heroine was TSTL on quite a few occasions, YET the author explained them in a way to where I could understand AND relate to why she did what she did, even as I'm yelling at her to not be an idiot! I can't say I wouldn't have done anything different. Although - I don't think I'd ever be dumb enough to take an 8 month old puppy into a forest off a leash. That was dumb, and set up a whole chain of events. (Spoiler alert: the dog is fine, don't want to scare you away).

I'm excited to read the next book and see how this continues to develop. She's building up signs that Rockton is not going to be able to stay off the grid that much longer, so will be curious to what happens to these people in this town. How they will change and how it will all go down. I do believe the "first settlement" is definitely going to be a larger issue, how can it not be, to the safety and survival of the Rockton community.

Book 3 in the Rockton Suspense Mystery Series

Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2019

Verified Purchase

Ok, so to me, Kelley can do no wrong. I have yet to encounter a book or series by her that I have not enjoyed or ultimately fan-girled over and this Rockton novel is no different. She has proven herself a master across all genres (well, at least all genres I read) from YA Paranormal, YA mystery, to Urban Fantasy to suspenseful adult Mystery. If you need me to recommend you a book, be aware that it will probably be written by Kelley regardless of what type of read you are looking for. It is a fact.

Keep in mind that this is book 3 in a series that must be read in order. Absolutely nothing will make sense if you have not read books 1 and 2 to get to this point because seriously everything builds. And why wouldn't you want to read books 1 and 2 from Rockton? They are just as fantastic as This Fallen Prey was.

The suspense and the anxiety that I had to live through in this Fallen Prey were so intense! I was so wrapped up in the story and my beloved character's well-being that I could not put the book down. Each tense potentially life altering/shattering moment had me on the edge of my seat, biting my nails, with no idea how anything would play out. And yes, these are those kinds of books- where safety, HEA or even survival is not a guarantee for the main characters. Side not - the amount of danger and stress that Storm faced was terrible and I was so worried! Can we please not do this next book? And now I am completely doubting my dog training skills since the 8 month old fictional puppy is way better behaved than my 10 month old real puppy.

Everything is just so freaking realistic (be it the setting, the people, the human nature at it's worst) and detailed as if I was there witnessing it- this was not a book a read, but instead a story I experienced. There is no way I wouldn't have been sucked in.) The best part is how I never know how the mystery will end, who is the villain? Can one person be a villain when everyone is capable of murder? Gaw, the questions about human nature and the twists Kelley throws at the reader are hands down the best. I highly recommend this series and I am counting down the days until I can get the next book- actually any book by Kelley will do.

Must read...

Lord love a duck...

I honestly don’t know where to start...

This series is crazy, edge of your seat twisted crazy. There is never a clear cut answer to the ending, there is so much drama and dark rooted...crazy.

This series is unlike anything I’ve ever read. It is good but beyond that it’s so much more. It’s unique, it’s twisted, it’s dark, it’s complicated and I’m still scratching my head as I dive into book 4 because you can’t stop reading. Like a train wreck...you can’t turn away.

Why?!?!?

Because the sheer brilliance and uniqueness of this series. This author really has quite the imagination and man does she put you through the ringer.

Extreme hostility

Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2018

Rockton is a place to hide for a few years. No one will find you. Only the Council knows where you are, and you've paid them to hide you. Casey is the sole homicide detective in a town of 200, and her skills are constantly needed. There are no forensics teams, no labs, and no doctors. Luckily for her, she was always ambitious and studied every aspect of police work. She's even training a Newfoundland puppy to be a search and rescue dog. In the previous two books, she learned that the Council is more venal than benevolent, and some of the residents are neither victims nor white collar criminals. But now she, and her lover, Sheriff Dalton, are faced with their biggest challenge. The Council drops a walking bomb into their midst: a serial killer. Half the town wants to believe in his innocence and free him, while the other half wants to lynch him. There are other crimes going on, mostly murder and arson, and Casey's stretched thin to cover all the clues and figure out what's going on. This is a great series!

What a ride

Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2018

Verified Purchase

This is the third book in the series, each growing from the last, to get the whole story you need to know who these characters are from the previous books. I was almost to the end and I told my husband I don't know who's innocent or guilty at this point, it takes you on a very switchback ride. I did guess about the family tragedy correctly though, but there was a whole lot that was guessing right along with Casey and Dalton. Very good mystery with lots of old and new characters coming in and out during the storyline. Lots left for us to think about for the next book, you never know who your neighbor really is, do you?

disappointing

Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2019

Verified Purchase

I enjoyed the first book in this series a lot. But not this one or the second book .

Ms. Anderson set up the crimes in books 2 and 3 so that you couldn't be sure whether the suspects were guilty or innocent. Which would have been fine if she had let her characters talk about the ambiguity or let the readers figure it out on their own. But she decided to tell the reader about it at length via internal monologues. And she repeated the monologues every time a new piece of evidence was introduced. Very tedious. She's a better writer than that.

Another great thriller in this series

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 13, 2018

Verified Purchase

3rd outing for Casey Butler and Sheriff Dalton. This time the trouble is sent to them from outside as a new resident is dropped on them by the mysterious council who runs Rockton.

Some knowledge of previous books would be advisable before reading this book as it refers back to previous incidents. Once more we are taken on a ride of discovery of the Yukon. We meet more of the locals this time and get a look at some really evil serial killer types, both homegrown and imported. There is a lot of death in this book and we lose some characters that have been in the books from the start. There is a fairly major loose end when the book finishes so I am eagerly waiting for the next in the series.

I enjoy these books for the whodunnit and I always learn something new about backwoods life. This book is still a bit bloodthirsty and still has bad language so it is for adults only.

Open air, closed room

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 23, 2019

Verified Purchase

This is the third in an enjoyable ‘closed room’ mystery series with the forests of the Yukon as the room’s walls. The room is a hidden township for dubious characters to hide out, run by the mysterious Council. It’s an unlikely but well sustained situation populated with interesting, well written characters and the opportunities for many different situations and scenery.

The series is easy reading, satisfying action, fairly complex situations between main characters and an interesting backdrop of an almost frontier town. If you like a well paced story with interesting characters and story line but without any cod morality or message the Rockton series is for you. Enjoy.

A good addition to the series

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 31, 2019

These "Rockton" books are slow to get going, so some readers may be put off by reading about the everyday mundane life in the wilderness but each book adds something to the characters background, so its worth reading.

Gripping conclusion to the series.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 15, 2018

Absolutely fantastic, it's such a shame this is the final book in the series. We'll miss all of the characters in Rockton. Gripping from the first word until the last, you feel empathy with a majority of the characters.
