Mystery Woman Sleuth
"Seconds passed; minutes. She could hear movement now in
the waiting room she had just left...it was the metal
magazine rack she was sure, that crashed to the tile floor.
Then quiet. She strained to hear in the darkness. Nothing
more, and then... The air moved in the room and she knew. He
was here." As a young psychology student, Hailey
Dean's world explodes when Will, her fiancé, is murdered
just weeks before their wedding. Reeling, she fights back
the only way she knows how: In court, prosecuting violent
crime...putting away the bad guys one rapist, doper, and
killer at a time. But dedicating her life to justice takes a
toll after years of courtroom battles and the endless tide
of victims calling out from crime scene photos and autopsy
tables. Just as she grows truly weary, a serial killer
unlike any other she's encountered begins to stalk the city
of Atlanta, targeting young prostitutes, each horrific
murder bearing his own unique mark. This courtroom battle
will be her last. ??Hailey heads for Manhattan to
pick up the pieces of the life she had before Will's murder,
training as a therapist. In a vibrant new world, she finally
leaves her ghosts behind. But then her own clients are
brutally murdered one by one by a copycat using the same
M.O. as the Atlanta killer she hunted down years before. As
the body count rises across Manhattan, Hailey is forced to
match wits not only against a killer, but the famed NYPD.
??Unless she returns to her former life and solves
the case, still more innocent people will die at the hands
of a killer who plans to get her, before she can get him!
