In their isolated Colorado farmhouse, Rowena Cooper and her two children prepare to wait out a blinding snowstorm. Two violent predators walk through the door. For these men, it’s just another stop on a long and bloody journey―and they still have many miles to go, and lives to sacrifice, before their work is done. But for the Cooper family, nothing will ever be the same. . .
“a nail-biter.” ―Publishers Weekly (starred review)
Meanwhile, San Francisco homicide detective Valerie Hart can’t stop thinking about the victims―women abducted, tortured, and left with a seemingly random series of objects inside them. The case has brought her to the edge psychological destruction. And she’s losing hope of making a breakthrough before that happens.

“Compelling, addictive…A master class in suspense.” ―Bookpage
But the murders at the Cooper farmhouse didn’t quite go according to plan. There was a survivor, Rowena’s ten-year-old daughter, Nell, who now holds the key to the killings. Injured, half-frozen, terrified, Nell has only one place to go. And that place could be even more dangerous than what she’s running from. . .

A small Georgia town erupts in panic when a young college professor is found brutally mutilated in the local diner. But it’s only when town pediatrician and coroner Sara Linton does the autopsy that the full extent of the killer’s twisted work becomes clear.

Sara’s ex-husband, police chief Jeffrey Tolliver, leads the investigation—a trail of terror that grows increasingly macabre when another local woman is found crucified a few days later. But he’s got more than a sadistic serial killer on his hands, because the county’s only female detective, Lena Adams—the first victim’s sister—wants to serve her own justice.

But it is Sara who holds the key to finding the killer. A secret from her past could unmask the brilliantly malevolent psychopath… or mean her death.
