About This Book
Fear grips her as the heavy footsteps echo along the isolated
trail path. She thought she was alone in the woods, but as a hand reaches out from
the darkness to cover her mouth, she knows that nobody will hear her scream…
When Jan Pierce is reported missing, Sheriff Jenna Alton and her deputy David Kane
rush to the forest surrounding Black Rock Falls. Jenna's heart breaks when she sees
Jan's body at the bottom of a ravine. But it's the purplish bruising in the shape of
a boot on her back that tells Jenna it was no accident. Somebody killed her.
As Jenna investigates Jan's last movements, she learns that Jan joined a
self-defense class and told her closest friends that she thought someone had
followed her home one night. Was someone watching her every move, waiting for the
right moment to strike?
Then another woman from the same group, Sierra Lang, is reported missing. When Jenna
finds Sierra at home, her lifeless body submerged in bathwater amid clear signs of a
struggle, she is certain there is a serial killer in town. With no sign of forced
entry, Jenna believes Sierra knew the killer and let him in. Could it be someone
known to the whole group, someone they thought was a friend?
As Jenna looks into both women's lives, her heart races when the trail leads to
someone she knows very well—someone she trusts. As a member of her own team comes
under fire, Jenna is shocked to her core and desperate to get answers. Could the
killer be closer than Jenna ever imagined, and can she uncover the truth before
another young woman's life is taken?
