Detective Gale Blue must track down a serial killer who stages their murders as suicides.
In July of 2002, a body is discovered in a run down apartment in Van Nuys, California. After Detective Gale Blue arrives on the scene, it quickly becomes apparent that what she's witnessing is a murder staged to look like a suicide. One phrase at the end of the forcefully written note that the victim left behind is the very same as another apparent suicide that took place in the Sunset Strip two weeks prior: ‘For the sake of our species, I choose to end it here, so that others can live.’
A serial killer is threatening the City of Angels. The victims are completely different and the way in which they're murdered changes each time. How do you catch someone who covers their tracks and has no rhyme or reason to who they target next? Gale must reach a conclusion to that question before more innocent lives are lost.
What she’s truly afraid of is the darkness she has to face within herself to get the answers she needs. The PTSD from a call she took that led to her previous partner's suicide one year ago still haunts her, and every day since, she's had to remind herself to do one thing…
In for four, hold for seven, out for eight.
The first entry in a reflective and intriguing crime fiction series that will leave you breathless!
