Garner Quinn and Lara Spangler had vowed to be friends forever. But a week after they'd made their promise sixteen-year-old Lara Spangler was dead, brutally murdered by the one person she should have trusted most - her father. On All Soul's Day, mild-mannered Gordon Spangler had slaughtered his whole family and vanished without a trace.
Garner Quinn has never forgotten the Spangler family. Now a best-selling true crime writer, one too many encounters with violent death have left her insisting she'll never write another book. But when a journalist friend tells her he's seen Gordon Spangler, and then ends up dead himself, Garner is determined to continue the investigation - and finally bring the killer to justice.
Only Spangler will stop at nothing to protect his identity . . . and Garner has to hope that she finds him before he finds her!
