Dana Gray knew few things for certain. The earth was round. Death was inevitable. And Jake Shepard didn’t do promises. Until now.
With a serial killer unleashing a Grim Reaper murder spree in D.C. it will take everything Dana has to fight for the life she’s always wanted. She has seven days to stop seven murders and she has to do it without Jake Shepard and the FBI.
With her friend and protégé in the D.C. Reaper’s sights, Dana is pulled into a psychiatric web of lies and occult rituals that even she can’t solve. Is this a political strike or something more sinister? She’ll have to race against time, trust past betrayals, and open old wounds if she hopes to save everyone she’s afraid to admit she loves.
C.J. Cross grew up in a snowy little Northeast town, cutting her teeth on true crime novels to stave her love of all things mysterious. The writing bug bit her early and she found her way into the publishing world, writing 50+ books under various top secret pen names over the years.
Now relocated to a place where she can safely trade in her snowshoes for flip flops, she's found a reason to dust off her old Criminal Justice degree and she's turned an old passion into a new flame, writing compelling thrillers novels.
When she's not writing you can usually find her drinking bourbon with fellow authors or spoiling her rescue pup.
