The Stranger Inside
by Jennifer Jaynes
In this tautly crafted tale of psychological suspense, a recently widowed mother resorts to the unthinkable to protect her shattered family. But does she go too far?
After mystery author Diane Christie loses her husband to suicide, she and her son move to the small coastal town of Fog Harbor, Massachusetts. Her daughter is attending college nearby, and Diane hopes that her family can now begin to heal. But rebuilding their lives after the tragedy isn’t so simple.
Diane’s depressed college-age daughter, Alexa, still avoids her, critical of everything Diane does, and even her generally amiable teenage son, Josh, has started acting out. Diane pushes forward, focusing on her writing and her volunteer work at a local crisis hotline. She knows that healing takes time.
But then a girl from Alexa’s college is found strangled. Worse still, the murderer uses the crisis hotline to confess to Diane . . . and claims she is the only one who can stop the killing. And just when the glow of new love from an attractive admirer begins to chase away some of the darkness, more girls turn up dead, and Diane races to solve a mystery she fears will hit terrifyingly close to home.

Some of Jennifer Jaynes' highlights
I’m
a novelist, wife and mommy to five-year-old twin boys. While earning my
bachelor’s degree in Health Sciences at Old Dominion University and a
certificate from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, I did a little
bit of everything to pay the bills.
I’ve
been a gas station attendant, waitress, dancing waitress, beer girl,
shot girl, bartender, closing coordinator, executive assistant, medical
assistant, EMT, content manager, webmaster, news publisher, editor,
copywriter, weight loss coach and publishing consultant.
Through
it all, though, what I really wanted to be was a novelist. It’s been a
very long, and sometimes difficult road, but in 2011, I finally began
living my dream with the release of my debut thriller, NEVER SMILE AT STRANGERS.
To date, NEVER SMILE AT STRANGERS has earned a place on the USA Today
Bestseller’s list, the #1 spot (across all categories) on Amazon.com,
the #1 spot (across all categories) in the Barnes & Noble’s Nook
Store, the #1 spot in several mystery subcategories—and has appeared in
the Kindle Store’s Top 100 list in several countries, including the UK,
Canada, Australia and Brazil.
In 2014, Thomas & Mercer acquired the rights to NEVER SMILE AT STRANGERS and re-released it in January 2015. They also bought the rights to my second novel, UGLY YOUNG THING, which released in March 2015. Ugly Young Thing has seen similar International success, and I couldn’t be more excited.
Thomas & Mercer bought the rights to two new novels of mine in 2015—the third in the Strangers series, DON’T SAY A WORD, which will release on May 3, 2016 as well as a standalone thriller called THE STRANGER INSIDE, releasing in May 2017.

Have
you ever read a book where YOU feel completely honored to be reading
it? There's just this amount of absolute protection in every word that
Jennifer Jaynes has written in The Stranger Inside.
Jaynes has given us a book that will make readers think about what we would really do for those we love. How far would we go to protect our people? This is a psychological thriller that will leave you thinking long after you have finished the last page.
I didn't think it was possible for me to enjoy Jaynes' books more than I already do but this is one I know I am going to reread come May. There's this steady increase of suspense throughout the book, you can FEEL the lead up to the climax... and you will NOT know what hit you!
The writing itself is complete perfection. Jaynes is really able to get inside us moms' heads. She knows our truest thoughts and biggest worries. The insecurities every mother has is written on these pages... the guilt, the fear, the hope. Simply put... this book is a MUST read!
I can't not thank Thomas & Mercer, Amazon, Brilliance Publishing and Jennifer Jaynes enough for allowing me to read this gem!
I received an ARC of this book with the hope that I will leave an Unbiased Opinion. I was not required to leave a review, positive or otherwise, and my opinions are just that... my opinions.
