The Stolen Ones

A killer lurks in the catacombs beneath Philadelphia in the international bestselling author's psychological thriller "full of surprises and dark shadows" (Booklist). 

Luther Wade grew up in Cold River, a warehouse for the criminally insane. Two decades ago the hospital closed it doors forever, but Luther never left. From his sealed-off haven, he accesses a secret network of tunnels beneath the city. As he wanders, he channels the violent dreams of Eduard Kross, Europe's most prolific serial killer of the twentieth century. 

A two-year-old girl is found wandering the streets of Philadelphia in the middle of the night by detectives Kevin Byrne and Jessica Balzano. She does not speak, but she may hold the key to solving a string of murders committed in and around Priory Park. As the detectives investigate, they're drawn closer to the doors of Luther's devious maze . . . and the dark secrets of Cold River.
