"If you want to see your daughter alive again, listen carefully."

When the body of a snatched schoolgirl is found in an abandoned biosciences building, the case is first treated as a kidnapping gone wrong.

But Detective Kay Hunter isn’t convinced, especially when a man is found dead with the ransom money still in his possession.

When a second schoolgirl is taken, Kay’s worst fears are realised.

With her career in jeopardy and desperate to conceal a disturbing secret, Kay’s hunt for the killer becomes a race against time before he claims another life.

For the killer, the game has only just begun…

Scared to Death is the first book in a thrilling crime series featuring Detective Kay Hunter from USA Today bestselling author Rachel Amphlett.

Praise for Scared to Death:

“Thrilling start to a new series. Scared to Death is a stylish, smart and gripping crime thriller” Robert Bryndza, USA Today bestselling author of NINE ELMS and THE GIRL IN THE ICE

"Amphlett has written an intriguing plot-driven police procedural, with Hunter a complicated heroine." The West Australian
