The Murder Game

By Beverly Barton

Whether you run or whether you hide, he’ll find you. And then he’ll kill you…

The game is simple–he is the Hunter. They are the prey. And they’re both entangled in a terrifying game of hide and seek…

He gives them a chance to escape. To outsmart him. But eventually, he captures them. And that’s when the game gets deadly…

Private investigator Griffin Powell and FBI agent Nicole Baxter know a lot about serial killers – they took one down together. But this new killer is as sadistic as they’ve ever seen. He likes his little games, and he especially likes forcing Nicole and Griff to play along.

Every unsolvable clue, every posed victim, every taunting phone call – it’s all part of his twisted, elaborate plan.

And then the Hunter seeks out his most precious prey of all and Griff finds himself playing for the biggest stakes of his life.
