Publisher Description
12 cold cases. 12 kidnapped women. One diabolical serial killer. In this bestselling suspense thriller, a brilliant FBI agent faces a deadly challenge: decipher the mystery before each one is murdered.
FBI Special Agent Maya Gray, 39, has seen it all. She’s one of BAU’s rising stars and the go-to agent for hard-to-crack serial cases. When she receives a handwritten postcard promising to release 12 kidnapped women if she will solve 12 cold cases, she assumes it’s a hoax.
Until the note mentions that, among the captives, is her missing sister.
Maya, shaken, is forced to take it seriously. The cases she’s up against are some of the most difficult the FBI has ever seen. But the terms of his game are simple: If Maya solves a case, he will release one of the girls.
And if she fails, he will end a life.
Maya embarks with an urgency unlike any she’s ever felt. In a race against time, and with her sister’s life hanging in the balance, she must unravel the link between the 12 captives and end the killer’s dark game once and for all. Is this killer toying with her? Does he truly have her sister? Will he ever give her back?
Or will Maya end up sucked too deep into this killer’s twisted cat-and-mouse game to notice that she, herself, is the prey?
A complex psychological crime thriller full of twists and turns and packed with heart-pounding suspense, the MAYA GRAY mystery series will make you fall in love with a brilliant new female protagonist and keep you turning pages late into the night. It is a perfect addition for fans of Robert Dugoni, Rachel Caine, Melinda Leigh or Mary Burton.

Girl One : Murdered
A wonderful exciting detective well written story so well told and it’s not the end ! Thank you to the Author 📕📚♥️
Compelling on-the-whole!
The story in general was enjoyable and the writing was good, save for a couple of awkward passages where a thesaurus or some grammar rearrangement would have been useful.
I think the final confession scene was a bit far-fetched but it didn’t detract from the whole.
I did feel a couple of things came too easily to the investigation but with the twists and turns, it keeps the reader guessing and was just about plausible in its entirety.
Toying with the idea of buying the next book.
Excellent!!
Absolutely brilliant…keeps you wanting to read more and in suspense! Loved it!!
