When the killings are linked to a trail of human bones discovered along the banks of the Wolf River, he begins to unravel the terrifying truth behind a series of murders that have gone undetected for over a decade.
As the investigation intensifies, Frankie realizes that his sister's tragic death wasn’t an accident, and that the man he’s been searching for is the same sadistic predator who took her life.
Book #1 in the addictive new Frankie Dawson, P.I. Mystery Thriller series by Melinda Woodhall, author of the Mercy Harbor Thriller Series, the Veronica Lee Thriller Series, and the Bridget Bishop FBI Mystery Thriller series.
