In this crime fiction thriller, a serial killer of young women hides in
plain sight in a quiet county in the Midwest. He hides behind a friendly
face that inspires trust and a personality that is charming and
persuasive - and has a rage to kill he can't control.
Detective Jennifer Brennan, still haunted by her abduction five years
before, devotes her life to serving and protecting others. So when three
young women go missing in her small county in Indiana and are found
murdered on her watch, she vows to find the killer - or die trying.
A personal relationship with her partner, Detective Blake Stone, would
be violating the strictest of the department's unspoken rules and career
suicide, especially since she is the sheriff's daughter. But the
connection Jennifer has with Blake is nothing short of electric. Working
with him daily and denying her attraction is hard. But when he moves in
to protect her, it becomes unbearable. As they fight temptation, two
detectives race against time to find the killer before he strikes again.
It is the most important case of their careers. It could be their last.
