A Stevens and Windermere Novel
A heart-pounding new Stevens and Windermere thriller from the award-winning author of The Stolen Ones and The Professionals
Kirk Stevens and Carla Windermere of the joint BCA-FBI violent crime task force have handled shocking cases before, but this one is different. Stevens's daughter, Andrea, is distraught over a classmate's suicide, but what the two investigators find is even more disturbing - an online suicide club of unhappy teenagers, presided over by an anonymous presence who seems to be spurring them on. Soon, it becomes apparent that the classmate wasn't the first victim - and won't be the last, either, unless they can hunt down this psychopath once and for all.
"Starred Review. A gut-wrenching tale filled with empathy for alienated teens. This may be the best yet in a first-rate series." - Kirkus
"Windermere, who takes on the one-dimensional villain with what amounts to a personal vendetta, engages in some unlikely heroics at the climax." - Publishers Weekly
"This is a guaranteed lost weekend for Laukkanen's fans and for anyone those seeking a Lee Child–like adrenaline rush." - Booklist
