Kingsley, or The Master, the man who kidnapped Detective Ellie Kline when she was fifteen, is in the wind. But if he’s incapacitated and on the FBI’s Most Wanted list, has someone taken his place? Lucky’s playground is America’s cold highways, taking his power from women with the kill. Partnered with FBI Special Agent Clay Lockwood to crack open a case as horrifying as the human trafficking ring, all signs point to a new master, or mistress, of a terror that went under with the master. When someone very close to Ellie is taken, the hunt turns personal once again, and Ellie is determined more than ever to bring this ring of terror down. But sometimes the prey eats the predator…Cold Grave: Every death tied to Tucker Penland, who hunted his prey and left behind a horrific mystery, raises more questions than answers, and Detective Ellie Kline must piece together clues to help identify a dozen victims.

Now, it’s circling back on itself. When Ellie was a beat cop, she saved a child from Katarina’s clutches. Little Harmony is missing again, and a secret is being exposed one terrible illegal adoption at a time. The circle’s evil fingers are wrapping tighter around Harmony.
