TOO CLOSE is book #2 in a new series by #1 bestselling and critically acclaimed mystery and suspense author Rylie Dark, which begins with TOO LATE (book #1).

Morgan Stark is a renowned surgeon, acclaimed by his colleagues for his brilliance as a diagnostician. But when his close friend and protégé resident is murdered, Morgan feels compelled to help the FBI decipher the trail of medical clues and bring the killer to justice.

FBI Special Agent Danielle Hernandez, 28, a rising star in the BAU, equally esteemed by her colleagues for her brilliance and determination, is not used to turning to a doctor for help in solving crimes. This unlikely partnership, though, may just surprise them both.

A string of women are found murdered, and Morgan feels certain that they share a similar medical history. But with medical records lost or sealed for privacy, will his assumptions lead him down the right road?

Or will he make a mistake, and fail to save the next victim in time?

Winter's Snare - Winter Black...

Mary Stone

Love is the beginning of everything. And the end. 
Haunted by dreams of the boy whose life she shattered and burdened by dark family secrets she's only just begun to understand, Private Investigator Winter Black is trying to keep her life from falling apart. With her husband on a yearlong break from the FBI, the bills are piling up, and Winter has no choice but to take on even the most mundane cases. Serving a summons should be easy. 
Until the man she served is found dead the next day. His wife too. 
The man, a local appliance store owner, faced financial ruin pending the legal case, leading authorities to suspect a murder-suicide. Winter doesn’t buy that he killed himself or his wife. In fact, she’d seen the anticipation in his eyes as they packed for a vacation together—hardly the behavior of a man about to end it all. When the employee behind the lawsuit goes missing, Winter is convinced. 
Someone murdered the couple. But who? 
As she digs deeper, the bodies start to pile up. People connected to the case are being picked off one by one, and Winter can’t shake the feeling that she’s getting closer to something dangerous—something that wants to stay hidden. Someone’s playing a twisted game, and Winter’s caught right in the middle. 
With a target on her back. 
The mystery and suspense continue with Winter’s Snare, the heart-stopping sixth book in the Winter Black Season Two series. It’s a reminder that love endures all things. Except murder.

Fifth Wrath (An Alex Quinn...

Rylie Dark

This recording has been digitally produced by Rylie Dark, using a synthesized version of an audiobook narrator’s voice under license. Interpol agent Alex Quinn, 29, born to Italian-Turkish parents, is a multi-lingual genius.
