Reviews
 
5 Stars: “Could not put it down. I read this in one sitting. I stayed up way too late because I did not want to put this down. I was on the edge of my seat throughout waiting to see what was going to happen next. The protagonist is in a lot of trouble now since he has opened a can of worms he should not have. Before he was only going up against one person, now he is going to have everyone after him with what he has done and it seems what he may be planning. I cannot wait for the next one to come out to see what will happen next.” Michelle Fortune (Goodreads)
 
 
 
5 Stars: “A lot of tense moments, emotions are running high and all over the place, action-packed from the beginning and of course a cliffhanger that makes you want to throw something LOL All in all, amazing part to the story. Definitely keeps you on your toes.” Brina 7

    Psychological horror meets police procedural in this chilling tale about a rare quirk of the funeral industry. 
    When Abby Carlson’s job as a dietitian comes to mind now, it’s accompanied by a looming threat: the Minneapolis serial killer who’s been targeting women based on the first letter of their jobs, and who’s ripe to pick a “D” victim. He follows his gruesome routine—preserving and posing the corpses per their professions, then posting his exploits on social media. But the threat is abstract in a city as big as Minneapolis…until Abby finds herself drugged in the back of a van, the latest potential viral hit. 
    In response to the kidnapping, Detective Cal Randall is called back early from mandated medical leave. Working with the FBI, he’s been on the trail of the “Profession Killer” since the start. Despite what’s become crippling anxiety he still has to work to control, there’s no choice about where he needs to be. A demented killer must be stopped, and Abby—the last of PK’s remaining letters—must be saved.
