‘High wire suspense that keeps you riveted’ Lisa Gardner
*
When homicide Detective Kit McKittrick and psychologist Sam Reeves discover a mutilated body in the desert outside San Diego, any number of people could be on their suspect list. The murder victim, local Councillor Brooks Munro, was a hated figure.
Following the killer’s trail, it becomes clear that those who abducted Brooks – and his prized Ferrari – went to extreme lengths to cover their tracks and wipe out any witnesses.
As Kit and her team delve deeper, they uncover a twisted blackmail scheme worth millions of dollars. Brooks hadn’t only been forcing money from his wealthy acquaintances, he’d also kept a secret list of their wrongdoings as protection – to be revealed on his death.
But now he is dead, where’s the list? Who was helping with the extortion scheme? And who would kill to stop the blackmail and prevent the list becoming public?
