Dylan First, brilliant psychologist turned FBI agent, cannot forget the horrific discovery of her past—that her mentor and father figure, a brilliant psychiatrist and professor, was secretly a serial killer—now that he has escaped prison. When new victims appear, their deaths eerily announced by newspaper obituaries before they are killed, the FBI suspects her mentor’s work—but Dylan knows that the game this killer is playing is not at all what it seems—it is far more diabolical—and far more deadly.
