About this ebook

She destroys the men she loves—and escapes every time. The most dangerous killer James Patterson has ever created is also his most seductive.
 
On his first night with Detroit PD, Officer Walter O’Brien is called to a murder scene. A terrified twenty-year-old has bludgeoned her kidnapper with skill that shocks even O’Brien’s veteran partner. The young woman is also a brilliant escape artist. Her bold flight from police custody makes the case impossible to solve—and, for Walter, even more impossible to forget.
 
By the time Walter’s promoted to detective, his fascination with the missing, gray-eyed woman is approaching obsession. And when Walter discovers that he’s not alone in his search, one truth is certain. This deadly string of secrets didn’t begin in his home city—but he’s going to make sure it ends there.   
 

Ratings and reviews

not my typical style of book but I love JP and it was still an awesome 👍 read. Keeps u hooked with many twists & turns. It also keeps u guessing at to what's going to happen next. Great book!!

I just finished this book. Scary! But I was totally lost at the end when "the cellphone rang". Did I miss something? Was "Amy Archer" still alive? Is that what the phone ringing meant? Other than that, this was a good book.

I'm not into ghosts and super natural stories. It was too weird for me.
