No Way Out (A Carly See FBI Suspense Thriller—Book 1)

Written by Rylie Dark

Narrated by Anna Coombes

When victims turn up with Shakespearean sonnets left on their bodies, the handiwork of a diabolical serial killer, FBI Special Agent (and psychic medium) Carly See is called in. Can she use her intuition to supplement her brilliant investigative skills and save the next victim before it’s too late?

NO WAY OUT (A Carly See FBI Suspense Thriller—Book 1) is the debut novel in a new series by mystery and suspense author Rylie Dark.

FBI Special Agent Carly See, a star in the elite BAU unit, hides a terrible secret: she can speak with the dead. The murder of her sister, still unsolved, plunged her life into grief and awakened a new power within her. Sometimes messages come from direct contact, other times in dreams. All of it feels like a curse—until Carly realizes she can harness her new skills to solve cases. But her abilities are unreliable, and Carly must use her brilliant mind to complete the puzzle—all while struggling to keep her secret from her colleagues.

As Carly races to decode the conflicting messages she receives from the other side, she wonders: Why these poems? Why these victims? What connects them? What is the killer’s secret message?

And who will he strike next?

In a twisted game of cat and mouse, this killer seems to know way too much about Carly. Is he toying with her?

Or is Carly herself the prey?

A page-turning thriller packed with twists and turns, secrets, and harrowing surprises you won’t see coming, the CARLY SEE series is a mystery series that will endear you to a unique new character and having you turning pages, bleary-eyed, late into the night.

Books #2 and #3 in the series—NO WAY BACK and NO WAY HOME—are now also available.

Reviews for No Way Out (A Carly See FBI Suspense Thriller—Book 1)

[Loreal Vance · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

I was not a fan of the narrators accent. The main character is American.

[Martine · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Narrator had a very distracting accent but book was okay.

[Melanie Joy · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

Good story. Reader very distracting. Too many mispronounced words. Distracting.

[Beth · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

It just didn't grab my interest. I listen hoping it would get better but I am not planning to listen to the rest. The narrators accent was strange and also disconnecting for a book based on the characters working in the US.

[Nelson · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

It was a decent story, but I really struggle with a narrator with English accent when it was supposed to be taking place in Washington DC. It was hard to get into it because of that.

[Jeanette Collins · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

I couldn’t listen to it, the narration was so awful.

[NNEAMAKA PAYNE · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

No Way Out is the first book outlining this FBI serial murderer and those who he’s taken their young lives earlier than expected. Carly works alongside Special Agent Lyle who’s the senior yet older partner in the team. It’s great to read that they have a great working relationship but not enough for Carly to share a certain psychic secret with Lyle. The story is well written which gives the readers an understanding and insight to how they are investigating any leads no matter if right or wrong. Lyle accepts Carly’s unique ability that gets the killer in the end, even though he doesn’t want to know about her abilities and might have an idea of how she obtains the insight to capture the killer as long as they get the killer in the end. I’ve rather enjoyed reading No way out and certainly will read the next instalments as I’m rather intrigued to learn if she does get the courage to tell her secrets to Lyle. Keep up the great writing.
