Thriller Serial Killer | Mystery
A propulsive debut suspense novel, filled with secrets,
nerve-jangling tension, perplexing mystery, and cold-
blooded murder, in which a police officer on the hunt for
a macabre serial killer is brutally attacked, and only
his partner knows the truth about what happened—and who
did it. After months of hunting a cold-blooded murderer that the
press has dubbed the Thorn Killer, Detective Greg Carver
is shot in his own home. His trusted partner, Ruth Lake,
is alone with him. Yet instead of calling for help, she’s
rearranged the crime scene and wiped the room clean of
prints. But Carver isn’t dead. Awakening in the hospital, Carver has no memory of being
shot, but is certain that his assailant is the Thorn
Killer. Though there’s no evidence to support his claim,
Carver insists the attack is retaliation, an attempt to
scare the detective off the psychopath’s scent, because
he’s getting too close. Trapped in a hospital bed and
still very weak, Carver’s obsession grows. He’s desperate
to get back to work and finally nail the bastard, before
more innocent blood is spilled. One person knows the truth and she’s not telling. She’s
also now leading the Thorn Killer investigation while
Carver recuperates. It doesn’t matter that Carver and the
rest of the force are counting on her, and that more
victims’ lives at stake. Ruth is keeping a deadly secret,
and she’ll cross every line—sacrificing her colleagues,
her career, and maybe even her own life—to keep it from
surfacing. Utterly engrossing and filled with masterfully crafted
surprises, Splinter in the Blood is a propulsive roller-
coaster ride, filled with deception, nerve-jangling
tension, perplexing mystery, and cold-blooded murder.
