Deadly
3 primary works
Book 1
FBI Special Agents Monica Davenport and Luke Dante are sent to the quiet town of Jasper, Mississippi. Although the modi operandi are different, it soon becomes clear that the two murders there are linked - by the notes from the killer and by the victims' fear. When the next woman goes missing, Lavery receives a call and a man's voice whispers, 'What scares you?
Luke has never had a chance to watch Monica work on a profile before and he's amazed at the way she gets into the killer's head, retracing steps at the crime scenes, understanding the fierce need to stir terror in the victims. The killer is now totally focused on Monica. Finally, he's found someone who understands. Someone who knows the thrill of the hunt.
The sheriff thinks that the killer will flee but Monica knows that running isn't an option for him. She doesn't think he fears getting caught - that's not what scares him. She thinks the bastard is playing a game - has been from the beginning and he's not going to stop until the game ends.
Book 2
The first time FBI Special Agent Kenton Lake sees Lora Spade, the woman is saving his butt-literally pulling him from a burning building. He takes one look at the gorgeous firefighter and falls for her, hard.
Lora isn't interested in getting involved because she lost her lover six months before in a fire-and she can't get his screams out of her mind. Lora is convinced the fire that took her boyfriend Carter was no accident.
But Kenton isn't the kind of man who walks away when he wants something-or someone. He's been sent by the Serial Services Division, an elite unit in the FBI, because they suspect that a serial arsonist is at work.
Kenton knows that Lora is just using him to avenge Carter's death. But he wants more than fleeting pleasure - he wants her. But this is not in the arsonist's plans. He's been watching Kenton and Lora.
He knows they are tracking him but they can't stop him. And they can't beat the fire. He wants to see them die.
