About this listen

A Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, and Amazon Charts bestseller.

In the fifth book of the multimillion-copy bestselling series, Morgan Dane and Lance Kruger fight for the innocence of a young murder suspect - if only they could find him.

When a retired sheriff’s deputy is shot to death in his home, his troubled teenage stepson, Evan, becomes the prime suspect. Even more incriminating, the boy disappeared from the scene of the crime.

Desperate to find her son, Evan’s mother begs PI Lance Kruger for help. She knows her son is innocent. Kruger and defense attorney Morgan Dane want to believe that too, but the evidence against the boy is damning. Just as the trail goes cold, another deputy vanishes. His shocking connection to Evan’s stepfather throws the investigation into chaos as Lance and Morgan fear the worst...that Evan is the killer’s new target.

With so many secrets to unravel, will Lance and Morgan find him before it’s too late?

Critic reviews

“A tense, original thriller that perfectly blends the nail-biting suspense and shocks of Silence of the Lambs and Shutter Island.” (John Marrs, best-selling author of When You Disappeared)

I have read the rest of the series. Enjoyed the audio of this one and narration was true to my idea of the characters.

Enjoyable series

as with others in this series, I enjoyed this crime novel. I listened to it on audio which is a new experience and quite nice for a change. I expect I will read more in the series but first a break.

another good story

Can Morgan and Lance prove Evan's innocence before the blinkered Sheriff gets him killed too?
Is the threat one from the past returning for justice? Or is this a new threat from the present?
It soon becomes obvious the killer takes no prisoners and anyone in his path is eliminated....

Another chilling case that hits too close to home for Morgan and Lance, they are once again battling law enforcement, although ineptness rather than corruption. We also see a welcome change in Sharp when he and Olivia find themselves in a fight to the death....can she heal his broken, and very well guarded, heart? I hope so, she would be a huge asset to an almost unstoppable team too!
I have read this on Kindle Unlimited and listened on Audible and the Audible is my favourite - such an impact!

Too many secrets...but whose was the fatal one?
