A USA Today bestseller "takes readers on a whirlwind ride" in this "gratifying" thriller featuring a traumatized female PI as she hunts a serial killer ( New York Journal of Books ). Private investigator Karin Schaeffer receives the call meant for her detective husband Mac on a Sunday night: two females found on a Brooklyn street. The first is an eleven-year-old girl, the apparent victim of a hit-and-run. But it's the second body that truly chills the blood--a young corpse bearing the grisly, unmistakable signature of a serial slayer who has eluded the NYPD for years. But there's something frightening different about these latest atrocities--a kink that is leading Schaeffer's unofficial investigation down strange and twisting alleys where nothing is as it originally seems. And the haunted P.I., who once lost everything to a psychopath, is suddenly facing the darkness once again...when the horror strikes too close to home and those she loves are in danger of vanishing forever. "I can always count on Katia Lief for gripping, twist-filled psychological suspense." —Wendy Corsi Staub, New York Times bestselling author "Mesmerizing….Your heart will be pounding." —Lisa Gardner, New York Times bestselling author
