About this ebook
A twisting forensic thriller from the New York Times–bestselling author, “quite simply, one of the best storytellers around” (Tess Gerritsen).
Forensic scientist Theresa MacLean is puzzled by the questionable death of a female construction worker at a Cleveland building site. A witness to the death—a young girl nicknamed Ghost—may be able to help. Ghost says the woman was pushed by someone she can only identify as the Shadow Man. Soon Theresa finds herself in a race against time to protect Ghost from an unknown killer before he is able to find the little girl and silence her for good.
“An intense plot, knuckle-biting suspense, a likable heroine, and a shock ending make for a thoroughly satisfying read.” —Booklist
“The pace doesn’t slow in Blunt Impact.” —Ohio.com
“The bond that MacLean forms with Ghost lends human interest and few will guess the killer’s identity before the final desperate confrontation.” —Publishers Weekly
“Black handles multiple plots like a pro.” —Kirkus Reviews
