First published 2007
Dani Justice lives with monsters in her nightmares, but now she faces one in the flesh. A killer without limits has murdered the daughter of a powerful U.S. senator, and the national media demands answers while a grieving father seeks revenge. Bishop's FBI Special Crimes Unit takes the case, but even psychic investigators cannot stop this predator. The killer has eluded the best law enforcement officers and shows no hesitation in killing cops alongside civilians. Bishop calls on a civilian organization he helped create two years earlier, a group of unorthodox crime fighters who operate without government oversight. Dani does not want this hunt. She has built a life and found peace she refuses to surrender. But the killer's rampage strikes too close to her world, and she alone possesses the weapon needed to destroy him. Dani knows something Bishop does not. She sees how this pursuit ends, in fire and blood and death. The question that torments her is which of them will survive the final confrontation.
