HER LAST WISH (A Rachel Gift FBI Suspense Thriller—Book 1) is the debut novel in a long-anticipated new series by #1 bestseller and USA Today bestselling author Blake Pierce, whose bestseller Once Gone (a free download) has received over 1,000 five star reviews.

FBI Agent Rachel Gift, 33, unparalleled for her ability to enter the minds of serial killers, is a rising star in the Behavioral Crimes Unit—until a routine doctor visit reveals she has but a few months left to live.

Not wishing to burden others with her pain, Rachel decides, agonizing as it is, not to tell anyone—not even her boss, her partner, her husband, or her seven-year-old daughter. She wants to go down fighting, and to take as many serial killers with her as she can.

A serial killer strikes in the Virginia area, targeting women who seek fertility treatments. As Rachel enters his sick and twisted mind, she struggles to understand his motive, or the connection between the victims.

Worse, the case strikes too close to home, bringing up memories of her own fertility treatments, and her failed mission to have a second child. As she seeks insight from a diabolical, jailed serial killer, she immediately realizes it’s a mistake. Can he see right through her?

Can Rachel keep her secret and keep her deteriorating health at bay long enough to finish the job? Can she fulfill her own bucket list before she dies? And can she keep herself from descending down the dark hole of her own traumatic past?

A riveting and chilling crime thriller featuring a brilliant and flailing FBI agent, the RACHEL GIFT series is an unputdownable mystery, packed with suspense, twists and shocking secrets, propelled by a page-turning pace that will keep you bleary-eyed late into the night.

Books #2 and #3 in the series—HER LAST CHANCE and HER LAST HOPE—are also available.

Ratings and reviews

The story line is amazing!! The only reason for the 3 stars is because the narrator is one of the worst I've listened to. I tried speeding it up, slowing it down in the hope to make it better but unfortunately it's just how she speaks. If you can get past how she speaks, you will enjoy the story!!

the book itself was good but so distracted by the narrators over pronunciation of the ending of each word I couldn't listen very long. I hate to be critical but that was the worst narrator I have ever listened to. I hope you continue to write and find a different narrator. It was painful to listen to.

The story line is interesting but I can't make it past the 3rd chapter because of the narrarator. She is much to breathy and sultry to take the story seriously. Even worse, she draws out the s and s sounds and it's unnecessary. I feel like she hissing nearly other word. I don't want asmr, I wa.t an enjoyable story.
