A Collector

When an artist is kidnapped by a serial killer, she must navigate a deadly game of manipulation and murder to turn captor into captive in a twisted novel of psychological suspense.

Eve Farrell is an artist who paints portraits of missing women. Her collection transforms the insensible into something beautiful. In them, her lover, Detective Chris Daniels, sees hope. The seductive serial killer preying on the London art scene sees something far darker.

When he kidnaps Eve from a gallery opening, his plan is set in motion. Imprisoned in his basement lair, Eve is to paint portraits of his victims—before and after death—to create a macabre exhibit of his own. Together, they’ll make art like no one has ever seen. But as the remaining canvases fill up, Eve knows she’s running out of time.

Between Eve and her captor, a twisted game of obsession, manipulation, and murder has just begun. But there can be only one winner. For Eve, survival and revenge are an art all their own.
