About this ebook

You cant put it down. a riveting thriller Ham has created a serial killer who will haunt your nightmares. a mesmerizing book
Florida Today Book Review

When seventeen-year-old honor student Sara Ann Riley mysteriously vanishes from the driveway of her Cocoa Beach, Florida, home, her family is devastated. Sara Anns parents, Adam and Valerie, are hopeful that shell return home alive. But days later, Sara Anns nude body is discovered; the killer has carved the initials CXJ into her forehead.

The terror for this small town escalates when the killer abducts and kills Tami Breckenridge. The details of both Sara Anns and Tamis murders resemble that of a case from twelve years ago when a Magee, Mississippi, teenager was found strangled in 1989 with the same initials inscribed on her forehead. With few clues available, local authorities call on the FBI for assistance to track down this serial killer before he takes another young life.

For the Riley family, the horror doesnt end. The killer calls their home and torments them. Adam and Valerie fear for the safety of their other daughter, Dawn. As a father, Adam vows to protect his family and his only surviving daughter.
