Author Sage Quintano writes about crime. Her husband Niko investigates it.

Together they make an unstoppable team. But no one counted on a

twisted serial killer, who stalks their sleepy community, uproots

their happy home, and splits the threads that bonds their family

unit.

Darkness swallows the Quintanos whole—ensnared by a ruthless killer out for

blood. Why he focused on Sage remains a mystery, but he won’t stop

till she dies like the others.

Women impaled by deer antlers, bodies encased in oil drums, nursery rhymes,

and the Suicide King. What connects these cryptic clues? For Sage and

Niko, the truth may be more terrifying than they ever imagined.

When a serial killer breaks into the home of bestselling author, Sage

Quintano, she barely escapes with her life. Her husband, Niko, a

homicide detective, insists they move to rural New Hampshire, where

he accepts a position as Grafton County Sheriff. Sage buries secrets

from that night—secrets she swears to take to her deathbed.

Three years of anguish and painful memories pass, and a grisly murder case

lands on Niko’s desk. A strange caller begins tormenting Sage—she

can’t outrun the past.

When Sage’s twin sister suddenly goes missing, Sage searches Niko’s

case files and discovers similarities to the Boston killer. A

sadistic psychopath is preying on innocent women, marring their

bodies in unspeakable ways. And now, he has her sister.

Cryptic clues. Hidden messages. Is the killer hinting at his identity? Or is

he trying to lure Sage into a deadly trap to end his reign of terror

with a matching set of corpses?
