nJosie presses her hands into the center of the drowned girls chest and pumps, counting off compressions. She takes in the girls beautiful face, her brown eyes glassy. The memory of a champion swimmer on the podium with her teammates-a red swim cap on, her head thrown back in laughter-a stark contrast to the cold, still body before her. Breathe. Just breathe... nThe body of a young girl lying face down in a swimming pool-white tennis shoes still on her feet, chestnut hair fanned out like a halo-is the last thing Detective Josie Quinn expects to find on an early morning visit to see her brother before class at Denton University. But when she recognizes the girls face as she drags her limp body from the water, theres only one question racing through Josies mind: how does a champion swimmer accidentally drown? nNysa Somers family is distraught. She was a model student, beloved daughter and everybodys friend. Theres no way she would do anything reckless enough to put her scholarship at risk, let alone her life. Its up to Josie and her team to piece together what happened in the hours leading up to Nysas death, and that begins with finding her missing backpack. nBut the bag, discarded in the woods on the nearby campus, contains nothing more than empty food wrappers, Nysas phone and a cryptic calendar entry telling her to be a mermaid. nThe next day, a terrible housefire envelops the nearby home of a retired fireman, nearly killing his two granddaughters. The last words the little girls heard him mutter before he set the blaze were, be a match. nAs the body count rises, its only Josie who can see the deadly pattern forming. Can she convince her team that the wrapper found in Nysas bag that everyone overlooked is the crucial link theyre missing? Not while her partner, Noah, is avoiding her calls and acting so coldly towards her. Josie knows she must go it alone if shes going to stop this silent and calculated serial killer before any more precious lives are taken. nBut with the killer finally in her sights, Josie takes a deadly risk and finds herself hanging onto life by her fingernails. Can she trust her team to save her, and before its too late? nAn unputdownable and totally gripping crime thriller from an Amazon, USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author.
