Más información sobre el libro

In legal trouble and court-ordered therapy for assaulting a potential child molester, Tess Monaghan seeks distraction by investigating a series of unsolved homicides spanning six years. The assignment comes from Luisa O'Neal, a wealthy benefactor tied to Tess's career and her former boyfriend's murder, adding complexity to the task. The cases involve five victims—four women and one man—whose deaths resulted from fire, gunshot, and hit-and-run incidents, all linked by the suspicion of domestic violence but lacking any clear connection. Hired to review police documents for inconsistencies, Tess's curiosity leads her beyond paperwork and into dangerous territory. Teaming up with a dedicated police officer, she follows scant leads into the remote areas of Maryland, where a killer can blend into both rural communities and urban settings. As Tess navigates unfamiliar ground, she finds herself in a perilous cat-and-mouse game with a cunning murderer who changes identities effortlessly. A shocking common link to the five murders begins to surface, tying the loose ends together in a bloody knot, with Tess Monaghan at the center of it all.
