A Cold Dark Place

An FBI agent searching for her sister. A deadly assassin hiding in plain sight. A predator watching from the shadows.

FBI Special Agent Mallory Rooney has spent eighteen years hunting the man who abducted her identical twin. Now a serial killer is carving her sister’s initials into the bodies of his victims—and the cold case that shaped Mallory’s entire life finally has a lead.

The trail leads to Alex Parker, a decorated former soldier turned cybercrime expert with too many secrets. Alex hunts predators for a clandestine government program that officially doesn’t exist. Staying invisible has kept him alive—but when danger starts circling Mallory, protecting her means stepping into the light.

Drawn together by the investigation and fighting a forbidden attraction neither of them can resist, they race to stop a murderer who has waited nearly two decades to claim his final prize. But the lies that define Alex’s life threaten to destroy them both—because this time, Mallory isn’t just chasing a killer. She’s the target.
