THE KILLING HOUR (An Alexa Chase Suspense Thriller-Book 3) is book #3 in a new series by mystery and suspense author Kate Bold, which begins with THE KILLING GAME (Book #1).
Alexa Chase, 34, a brilliant profiler in the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit, was too good at her job. Haunted by all the serial killers she caught, she left a stunning career behind to join the U.S. Marshals. As a Deputy Marshal, Alexa-fit, and as tough as she is brilliant-could immerse herself in a simple career of hunting down fugitives and bringing them to justice.
But with her recent work a big success, the FBI and the Marshals have decided to make their joint-task force permanent. Alexa, reeling from her own traumatic past and her PTSD of hunting serial killers, has no choice: she will now have to work with an FBI partner she dislikes and hunt down serial killers whose jurisdiction intertwines with that of the U.S. Marshals. Alexa finds herself forced to confront the thing she dreads the most-entering a killer's mind.
An infamous killer dramatically escapes death row, and Alexa's joint task force is immediately put on the case. A high profile case with national media attention, Alexa isn't the only one who's called in-and between the clashes of ego with other state and federal powers, she knows the killer is only getting further away.
What appears to be a straightforward manhunt, though, quickly evolves into something more complex, as more bodies turn up dead, and as the killer inexplicably eludes everyone.
And when a shocking twist occurs that Alexa never saw coming, she realizes this case is far more complex-and disturbing-than she could have ever imagined.
With the killer outsmarting everyone, Alexa is the only one with a mind brilliant enough to stop him, the only one standing between him and his next kill. But, weighed down by the pressure of her own traumatic past, can Alexa hold it together long enough to enter the darkest canals of his mind-and come out whole?
A page-turning and harrowing crime thriller featuring a brilliant and tortured Deputy Marshal, the ALEXA CHASE series is a riveting mystery, packed with non-stop action, suspense, twists and turns, revelations, and driven by a breakneck pace that will keep you flipping pages late into the night.
Books #4-#6 in the series-THE KILLING POINT, THE KILLING FOG, and THE KILLING PLACE-are also available.
