Image
  ⭐⭐⭐ ⭐  Stars Book Blurb She's a tool in his deception, sculpting twisted beliefs of life beyond death. Kidnapped by Volga County’s serial killer, Emily “Mills” Ellis finds herself trapped in a luxury building with everything she needs: art supplies, the time to create, and the support of a budding family. Everything, that is, except for food and rest. While her best friend Livvy searches to find her hiding place, Mills battles with her beliefs in art and her purpose within a creative universe.

Paint by Murders (Emily Ellis, #1) by Amanda Jaeger Review Copy

⭐⭐⭐   Stars Book Blurb Her talent couldn't save their lives. Can it save hers? Girls are dying in the town of Volga, and no one seems to be talking about who or what is behind their deaths. Emily Ellis, aka Mills, knows her talent as an artist has a purpose: to tell the stories of girls who are no longer able to tell their stories themselves. In her hands, Mills’ brushes do the talking. They take over her hands and mind, and what they produce seem to have a connection to the girls and what happened to them. There’s only one person who knows how dark that connection is, and he’ll stop at nothing to use that connection for his own ends. With Mills in his crosshairs, she has to do whatever it takes to survive.
