Helen is familiar with the dark sides of human nature, including her own, but this case—with its seemingly random victims—has her baffled. But as more people go missing, nothing will be more terrifying than when it all starts making sense.... [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content]
