Nature Abhors a Vacuum. One Killer is Willing to Fill it.

Three years after quitting as a homicide detective, Sam moves to Denver to become a named partner with a boutique private investigation firm. She’s finished with the violence and trauma that have marked both her personal and professional lives. Then a zealous environmentalist begins a killing spree with plans to escalate. Sam finds herself once again hunting a serial killer, one whose past too closely resembles her own.

“This is a worthy installment in a celebrated series, focusing on a compelling lead character. It’s densely plotted but never confusing. Stern’s writing is elegant and lean, never self-indulgent. Most important, it’s anything but predictable.” ~ BlueInk Review

“a memorable mystery that sizzles with action, twists of plot, and a host of possibilities and characters” ~ D. Donovan, Sr. Reviewer, Midwest Book Review

Sure to please fans of Will Trent, Renee Ballard, and Harry Bosch.
