The Bitter Dead

"Everyone falls eventually. Even you, Ophelia."

Ophelia has spent years outrunning her past. But now a killer is on the loose — and the life she buried is clawing its way back into the light. Her real name has surfaced. Her secrets are unravelling. And soon, the world will know exactly who she is… and what she's been running from.

For Detective Laura Foster, the timing couldn't be worse. The man she once failed to put away — Daniel Gregory — is back, and the murders have started again. As Laura races to prove Gregory's guilt, she realizes the truth too late: this time, the killer isn't just hunting victims.

He's setting a trap.

And both Laura and Ophelia are walking straight into it.

Originally published as Fallen Heroes, this book is the gripping conclusion to the Ophelia trilogy. Also included is a short story titled Five Years Later, which reveals what happened to both Laura and Ophelia after the shocking conclusion of the main story.
