"just keeps getting better and better!" --5-Star Reader Review
When a local burglary escalates into a gruesome murder, Madison takes charge of the investigation, only to discover that this is no ordinary killing.
After two years as a Seattle Police Department homicide detective, Alice Madison has finally found a measure of peace she has never known before--a sense of belonging.
Now, Madison finds herself tracking a serial assassin who has haunted the city for years--and whose brutality is the stuff of legend among the super-max prisons of the Pacific Northwest.
As she delves deeper into the case, Madison learns that the widow of one of the victims is being stalked--is the killer poised to strike again? As pressures mount, Madison will stop at nothing to save the next innocent victim . . . even if it means playing a killer's endgame.

"Realistic twists keep the suspense high, while personal details lend human interest...London-based Giambanco shows an affinity for Seattle, its neighborhoods and environs. Readers will look forward to Madison's further adventures in the next installment."
