Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Two identical crime scenes. One terrified connection who can't trust her own mind. And the detective who will cross the line to save her.

Detective Allen Hounder knows the dark side of Portland, Oregon. But when two double homicides are discovered on opposite sides of the city-staged with eerie, identical precision-even he is shaken.

There is only one link between the bodies: a terrified woman named Lucy Marshall.

For Hounder, her name is a painful echo of his murdered girlfriend, but the living Lucy is a puzzle he can't solve. Desperate to protect her, he pushes the boundaries of his badge, unaware that Lucy's world is rapidly fracturing around her.

Lucy must protect her secrets at all cost, even as she is unraveling. Plagued by blackouts and mounting confusion, she finds mysterious notes scattered through her home-some offering lifesaving alibis, others issuing sinister warnings.

Someone is watching her every move, but as her memory slips, she can no longer tell if she is being framed, losing her mind, or being hunted.

With time running out and the killer closing in, Hounder is trapped in a dangerous cat-and-mouse game. To catch a murderer, he must answer the one question threatening to destroy them both: Is the woman he's desperate to save an innocent victim running out of time... or a calculating killer playing him from the start?

An atmospheric, rain-soaked Pacific Northwest thriller perfect for fans of gritty police procedurals and mind-bending psychological suspense.
