about the book


This woman and her K-9 are being hunted.

Exactly as she planned.

When a busload of schoolchildren disappears, Phoenix Gray knows the kidnapper is the unidentified serial killer she’s spent her life trying to catch. This time, she’ll find the killer and bring him to justice no matter what it takes. She and her Phoenix K-9 Security and Detection Agency join the search for the hostages, but they aren’t the only ones who want the criminal captured.

Callum Ross, an FBI agent who specializes in catching serial criminals, is about to resign. But not until he finds one last culprit, the killer behind a famous twenty-year-old crime Callum vowed to solve.

Despite the FBI agent’s uncanny understanding of her psyche, Phoenix refuses to be distracted from her goal. When the serial killer turns into the cat instead of the mouse, Phoenix thinks she’s ready. But will she need the God she rejected to achieve the justice she’s given her life to obtain?

excerpt

“Dag.” She didn’t look away from Callum as her K-9 passed him and stopped at her side.

Callum searched her unflinching stare for any hint of emotion—dark or light, good or evil.

“I am not the FBI.” She continued eye contact for one more moment, no defiance or triumph touching her expressionless features or infusing her monotone delivery.

She turned abruptly and walked away, her dog sticking close to her leg. She stalked past Willis and snatched up her gray baseball cap without breaking stride. Placing the cap on her head, she continued toward the closed door at the end of the garage.

Movement pulled Callum’s gaze toward Willis. The man moaned as he touched his head and started to push himself up.

Callum hurried to him, pulling handcuffs from his pocket to secure the suspect.

Phoenix Gray knew what she was doing. She’d only held her choke long enough to keep Willis out for a matter of seconds.

Callum glanced up from cuffing the man’s wrists just as the sound of the overhead garage door opening reached his ears.

Phoenix Gray and her K-9 stepped out of the lit garage into the black world beyond.

But he could still see her in his mind’s eye—the way she’d stared at him with the eerie impassiveness he’d only seen on one other face. The face in a photo that had haunted him forever.

A girl wrecked by evil beyond belief.

The girl he was too late to set free.
