First published 2016
Clara Avery works as an entertainer aboard the Fate, a cruise ship navigating Alaskan waters. When she ventures to Bear Island, she stumbles upon a horrific crime scene filled with bloody carnage. There she meets Thor Erikson, an FBI agent from the Alaska field office who will soon join the Krewe of Hunters, the bureau's specialized paranormal unit. Thor investigates a series of disturbing murders where corpses have been arranged to mirror victims of famous serial killers. The main suspect is a convicted murderer Thor previously captured, who recently broke out of a Midwest prison and appears to be heading toward Alaska. Both Clara and Thor possess an extraordinary ability to speak with spirits of the deceased. As their romantic connection deepens, they combine their supernatural talents with insights from the victims' ghosts. Together they must solve the brutal killings before they become the next targets of this escaped killer's twisted game.
