New York Times bestselling authors Iris Johansen and Roy Johansen
team up for another electrifying thriller that pits a serial killer
against Kendra Michaels' heightened powers of deduction.
After scoring a plea deal in a high-profile murder trial, serial killer
James Michael Barrett leads a grim parade of law enforcement officers to
the body of his last victim. At the alleged burial site, the officers
swing their shovels down and are met with a strange metallic sound they
weren't expecting. In a blink, a terrific explosion rocks the woods,
killing Barrett and most of the officers instantly.
The detonation is only the beginning of a shocking case for FBI
consultant Kendra Michaels--a string of heinous murders in the style of
the very-dead Barrett mysteriously continue, and it becomes clear that
he may not have been working alone. As the crimes accelerate, Kendra
reluctantly accepts help from college student Tricia Walton, the only
survivor of Barrett's attacks. But the killer has a terrifying plan that
Kendra and her team are only beginning to understand.
