Review: See How They Hide by Allison Brennan

Author: Allison Brennan
Publisher: Mira
Publication Date: January 2025

Two people were murdered—at the exact same time, in the same gruesome manner, bodies covered in the same red poppies…but on opposite sides of the country.

With Detective Kara Quinn investigating in Oregon and Special Agent Matt Costa in Virginia, the Mobile Response Team digs deep to uncover more about each victim. What is the link between the two, and why were they targeted?

Yet their search unearths more questions than answers—until they meet Riley Pierce, the only person still alive who might be able to help them find the killers.

Soon, it becomes clear this case is nothing like they’ve seen before as their investigation leads them to the hallowed grounds of Havenwood—an eerily beautiful place rooted in a terrifying past.

As more bodies turn up, all tied to the same community, Kara and Matt are desperate to piece the puzzle together before Havenwood’s leader sacrifices everything to keep her secrets buried.

See How They Hide is the 6th book in the Quinn & Costa series.  This time around, Kara and Matt and the team are hunting the killer of two people with no apparent ties to each other except for how they died.  Their hunt takes them to a mysterious place called Havenwood.   I have to admit that I didn't love this one as much as I have loved the others in the series.  There was a lot less interaction with Kara and Matt.  And they are really why I love this series.  The mystery wasn't really a mystery because you pretty much know what is going on by the middle of the book.  I did like that Kara got closer with her co-workers.  Other than that, I don't really have much to say about this one.  It's a good addition to the series, but not my favorite.
