Perfect for you if...

  • You love thrillers with high personal stakes where the villain is as intelligent and obsessed as the detectives chasing him.
  • You appreciate fast-paced procedural crime fiction with genuine twists that don't rely on cheap tricks.
  • You're drawn to stories where the hunter and hunted keep shifting roles, keeping you guessing who's actually in control.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer standalone books, as this is the second in a series and assumes familiarity with Sanchez and Heron.
  • You're uncomfortable with detailed explorations of grief, death, and psychological manipulation as core plot elements.
  • You want lighter fare or character-driven narratives over plot-driven tension and cat-and-mouse games.

About this book

A wedding reception in the Hollywood Hills ends with the death of one of the newlyweds. What appears to be an accident draws the attention of Homeland Security Investigations agent Carmen Sanchez and her partner, security expert Jake Heron. They discover this death is the third in a series of similar incidents, revealing a pattern of deliberate killings. The two agents uncover evidence of a serial killer operating at a new level of depravity. Dubbed the Honeymoon Killer, he targets couples and creates elaborate grave displays focused on the survivors, deriving satisfaction from their grief. His obsession has now turned toward Carmen and Jake themselves—he views them as his next perfect victims, believing that eliminating one will destroy the other. As time runs short, a deadly game of predator and prey unfolds between the killer and the two agents hunting him.
