  News of her son’s tragic death ushered in the worst moments of Sandra Cruz’s life. After his father abandoned them, Sandra alone had raised Preston into the man he became. Now, trudging through the difficult task of setting Preston’s affairs in order, Sandra begins learning new things about him. He was a star on a recreational beach volleyball team, he’d recently reconnected with his estranged father, and he was engaged to Krystal… a girl Sandra thought he’d broken up with. Before long, Sandra wonders if she really knew Preston at all. 
  Krystal’s erratic behavior and strange claims cause Sandra, her sister Victoria, and Preston’s father Charles to begin questioning if Preston’s motorcycle crash was an accident or something more sinister. But each time they think they’ve figured out the truth, they’re met with another shocking surprise. After all, how well can any mother truly know her son? 
  Boyfriend Killer will keep you guessing, with twists, turns, and surprises all the way to the chilling final moment.

  A Slash of Emerald - A Dr Julia...

  London, 1867: Among the genteel young ladies of London society, painting is a perfectly acceptable pastime—but a woman who dares to pursue art as a profession is another prospect, indeed. Dr. Julia Lewis, familiar with the disrespect afforded women in untraditional careers, is hardly surprised when Scotland Yard shows little interest in complaints made by her friend, Mary Allingham, about a break-in at her art studio. Mary is just one of many "lady painters" being targeted by vandals. 
   
   
   
  Painters' sitters are vanishing, too—women viewed by some as dispensable outcasts. Inspector Richard Tennant, however, takes the attacks seriously, suspecting they're linked to the poison-pen letters received by other members of the Allingham family. For Julia, the issue is complicated by Tennant's previous relationship with Mary's sister-in-law, Louisa, and by her own surprising reaction to that entanglement. 
   
   
   
  But when someone close to them commits suicide and a woman turns up dead, the case can no longer be so easily ignored by "respectable" society. Layer after layer, Julia and Tennant scrape away the facts of the case like paint from a canvas. What emerges is a somber picture of vice, depravity, and deception stretching from London's East End to the Far East—with a killer at its center, determined to get away with one last, grisly murder . . .

  “A dynamic story line that grips from the first chapter and doesn't let go.” 
  --Midwest Book Review, Diane Donovan (regarding Once Gone) 
  
  From Blake Pierce, bestselling author of ONCE GONE (a #1 bestseller with over 600 five star reviews), comes a heart-pounding new mystery series.
  
  A bundle of books #1 (BEFORE HE KILLS), #2 (BEFORE HE SEES) and #3 (BEFORE HE COVETS) in Blake Pierce’s Mackenzie White Mystery series! This bundle offers books one, two and three in one convenient file, with over 150,000 words of reading.
  
  In BEFORE HE KILLS, in the cornfields of Nebraska, a woman is found murdered, strung up on a pole, the victim of a deranged killer. It doesn’t take long for the police to realize a serial killer is on the loose—and that his spree has just begun. Detective Mackenzie White, young, tough, smarter than the aging, chauvinistic men on her local force, finds herself called in grudgingly to help solve it. As much as the other officers hate to admit it, they need her young, brilliant mind, which has already helped crack cold cases that had left them stumped. Yet even for Mackenzie this new case proves an impossible riddle, something the likes of which she—and the local force—have ever seen.
  
  In BEFORE HE SEES, FBI agent-in-training Mackenzie White struggles to make her mark in the FBI Academy in Quantico, trying to prove herself as a woman and as a transplant from Nebraska. Hoping she has what it takes to become an FBI agent and leave her life in the Midwest behind for good, Mackenzie just wants to keep a low profile and impress her superiors. But all that changes when the body of a woman is found in a garbage dump. The murder bears shocking similarities to the Scarecrow Killer—the case that made Mackenzie famous in Nebraska—and in the frantic race against time to stop a new serial killer, the FBI decides to break protocol and give Mackenzie a chance on the case.
  
  In BEFORE HE COVETS (A Mackenzie White Mystery—Book 3), newly minted FBI agent Mackenzie White graduates the FBI Academy in Quantico only to find herself thrown into an urgent serial killer case. Women are turning up dead while camping in a remote national park in West Virginia. Yet the park is vast, and no connection can be found between them. At the same time, Mackenzie receives a call from Nebraska urging her to come home. After many years, a new clue has surfaced about her father’s murder. The case no longer cold, Mackenzie desperately needs to help solve it. But the FBI’s killer is ratcheting up, and there is no time for distraction as more women turn up missing in the psychological game of cat-and-mouse that follows. 
  
  Dark psychological thrillers with heart-pounding suspense, the MACKENZIE WHITE MYSTERY series is a riveting new series—with a beloved new character—that will leave you turning pages late into the night. 
  
  Book #4 in the Mackenzie White series will be available soon.

  From the sunny shores of Hawaii to the heart of Nebraska, a mystery awaits.

  Each clue pulls Cassandra deeper into danger and seems to grease the rungs of the academic ladder she's precariously climbing. Can Cassandra uncover the truth before she slips off the ladder and becomes the next unfortunate headline? Grab your front-row seat to this masterclass in resilience, academic survival, and sleuthing.
