When a missing person's case becomes a hunt for an active serial killer, Detective Kaitlyn Kruse must use her greatest asset: a supernatural ability to remember her past lives. But the killer may be closer to home than she’s willing to believe.
When a local woman’s body is found in a shallow grave on one of Seattle’s pristine hiking trails, Detective Kaitlyn Kruse and her partner Joe Riley are under pressure to find her killer as swiftly as possible. But more than one body is recovered at the site, and-alarmingly—they all look a bit like Kaitlyn.
Fortunately, Kaitlyn has a secret weapon. She dreams of her past lives, and their memories are always eager to help her solve the crime at hand. But Kaitlyn’s dreams are getting more desperate every night, like one of her past selves is trying to tell her something… and a shady black sedan is tracking her every move. It may be too late to stop the inevitable—but Kaitlyn is determined to get justice for the dead before she becomes one of them. In this rousing crime debut with a touch of the supernatural, the first in her Detective Kaitlyn Kruse series, Karoline Anderson proves she’s got a knack for the thrill.
