Girl Without a Chance Publisher's summary

A woman escapes from the clutches of a serial killer in a small, mountain town, and Deputy Sheriff Tara Strong must race to decode the incoherent victim’s report and save the next one before it’s too late. But in a shocking twist, Tara realizes she is up against a killer more diabolical than she could imagine—and that, with her own life at stake, some of a town’s secrets are best left buried.

Girl Without a Chance is book 1 in a new series by number one best-selling and critically acclaimed mystery and suspense author Rylie Dark, whose books have received over 2,000 five-star reviews and ratings.

Tara Strong has risen to become her county’s Deputy Sheriff through her bravery and her brilliant capacity to enter killer’s minds. Small-town life in the mountains, centered around their picturesque lake, should be idyllic. But Tara has already seen enough to know that there is a dark side to everything, that small towns hide secrets, that everyone has something in their past—and that a killer may just be lurking right next door.

Tara remains haunted by her own past, by her missing sister, by her guilt over the unsolved case. She must battle the demons of her own past, while trying to get ahead in a male-dominated police force.

Can Tara keep it together long enough to catch a killer?

A cat-and-mouse thriller with harrowing twists and turns and filled with heart-pounding suspense, the Tara Strong mystery series offers a fresh twist on the genre as it introduces two brilliant protagonists who will make you fall in love and keep you turning pages late into the night.

Books #2-#5—Girl Without a Home, Girl Without a Trace, Girl Without a Name, and Girl Without a Prayer—are also available.
