The Serial Killer Support Group (Secret Vigilante, Book #1) by D B Stephens



Description from the Publisher:

"Justice will be served…

Therapy just got deadly

When Jess Pendle agrees to attend a support group to meet other women who have lived similar experiences, she doesn’t expect much.

The group has been set up for like-minded women to come together, but when their therapist leaves, they close the blinds and find a new, and altogether more deadly way to support each other…"

I love a good serial killer book and I wasn't disappointed with this one.  This book deals with domestic violence, control and coercion so if this is a trigger, I would probably stay away.   

Despite moments where it is a little slow in pace,  "The Serial Killer Support Group" is a gripping and thought-provoking story of a group of resilient women, domestic violence survivors let down by the police, who find solace and support in their shared experiences. The story takes a dark turn as the mysterious Caretaker intervenes, seeking revenge on their abusers in rather graphic ways.

This is a powerful exploration of social injustice and the desire for revenge which, whilst the subject matter was difficult to read (but sadly all to familiar for thousands of women), I enjoyed it and was rooting for the women and the Caretaker.  The major twist wasn't a surprise for me but it didn't spoil my enjoyment of this book and I am eager to find out where the next one takes us.

Many thanks to the author, HarperCollins UK, One More Chapter and NetGalley for enabling me to read and share my thoughts of this, the first book in a new series.
