Description
By: Gerry Schmitt | Series: An Afton Tangler Thriller
“Readers will be at the edge of their seats.” —Crimespree Magazine
“The energy in this thrilling debut...mounts to a fever pitch.”—Romantic Times
A missing child, a desperate detective, and a bold new voice in psychological suspense combine in a thriller that is “taut and tense.”*
*Minneapolis Star Tribune
On a frozen night in an affluent Minneapolis neighborhood, a baby is abducted from her home after her teenage babysitter is violently assaulted. The parents are frantic, the police are baffled, and, with the perpetrator already in the wind, the trail is getting colder by the second.
As family liaison officer with the Minneapolis P.D., it’s Afton Tangler’s job to deal with the emotional aftermath of terrible crimes—but she’s never faced a case quite as brutal as this. Each development is more heartbreaking than the last and the only lead is a collection of seemingly unrelated clues.
But, most disturbing of all, Afton begins to suspect that this case is not isolated. Whoever did this has taken babies before—and if Afton doesn’t solve this crime soon, more children are sure to go missing . . .
