For years, tales of the Firefly Man were nothing more than elaborate rumors spread by residents in the Great Smoky Mountains.
Until the night Evelyn Vaughn stumbled upon a dead body in the woods.
Fear gripped her, and silence stole her voice.
All while she watched the boy she was with that night take the fall.

Fourteen years later, Evelyn is nothing more than a shell of her former self.
Her life moves like a clock, from one moment to the next, never a surprise.
Gone are the days of chasing fireflies through the woods.
Until her therapist goes missing and he’s replaced with someone new.
Dr. Lincoln Reed.
A devastatingly handsome single dad with an intensity behind his evergreen eyes that jolts her back to life.

Or does it?

Evelyn is quickly losing grip of the suppressed reality she’s worked so hard to live.
With every new session on Dr. Reed’s couch, comes a startling new revelation that has her past awakening like the sparkles of light she used to chase through the Appalachian woods.

The Firefly Man was supposed to be a rumor, a fable, a spooky tale.
But Evelyn remembers the truth.
He’s her very own phantom.
And he’s back.

This was mysterious, suspenseful with the added spice. I was totally hooked from the beginning getting to know Evie and Lincoln. Evie has had a hard life, her drastically changed fourteen years ago. When the therapist that she has been seeing for all her trauma disappears Dr. Reed comes to town to take over his practice. Watching Evie trying to figure ‘who’ it was that murdered her friend, there was twists and turns that I didn’t see coming. This was a great read and I can’t wait to see what other mystery suspense books Allen has up her sleeve.
