  When Jessica French sees the Masked Artist on Dutch television, she’s convinced that the performer is her dead sister. But how could that be? Olivia died in Amsterdam two years ago. They cremated her. Or did they? 
  There’s only one way to find out. Jessica flies to Amsterdam, but the reclusive artist refuses to see anyone. She values her privacy—and fears the man who stalks her.  
  Is the artist really Olivia? If she is, why did she fake her own death and put her family through two years of grief, misery, and pain? 
  What begins as a simple reconnaissance mission turns into a desperate search for the truth—and a deadly game of cat and mouse. Can Jessica find the artist before the stalker does? 
  To get answers, Jessica must risk everything—including her life.

  Don’t miss the next Will Trent thriller, This Is Why We Lied, coming this August!  
  From New York Times bestselling author Karin Slaughter, the first novel in her acclaimed Grant County Series. 
  A small Georgia town erupts in panic when a young college professor is found brutally mutilated in the local diner. But it’s only when town pediatrician and coroner Sara Linton does the autopsy that the full extent of the killer’s twisted work becomes clear. 
  Sara’s ex-husband, police chief Jeffrey Tolliver, leads the investigation—a trail of terror that grows increasingly macabre when another local woman is found crucified a few days later. But he’s got more than a sadistic serial killer on his hands, because the county’s only female detective, Lena Adams—the first victim’s sister—wants to serve her own justice. 
  But it is Sara who holds the key to finding the killer. A secret from her past could unmask the brilliantly malevolent psychopath… or mean her death.

  “Look asshole, you’re writing this stupid, fucking novel about White’s Tavern, only you need to take a closer look at the people you’re writing about. Death is all around them. It’s a disease. And whether they drink it, shoot it, snort it, eat it, swallow it, breathe it or fuck it, everyone in that place, including you and me, are pregnant with it. Everyone in White’s spends all the money they got just to get a taste of it and feel it inside their bodies. It’s a taste of the grave and they get off on it. We all know death is coming, including everyone in White’s, only everyone in White’s just teases it until it finally comes.” 
  A harsh, jaw-dropping story of a small bar in a small, mob run Chicago suburb in 1973, where fights, frights, drugs, hard-core drinking, camaraderie, philosophical conversations, politics, and dying took place on a daily basis. It’s a fascinating blend of fact and fiction that will keep you thinking about your own life long afterward.
