When a trail of arcane murders threatens to expose alchemical secrets, FBI Agent Faith Bold and her canine partner must decipher cryptic clues that are tied to a quest for immortality. Can they prevent the killer from completing the final and deadly stage of an ancient ritual?
FBI Special Agent Faith Bold doesn’t believe she can ever return to the force after the trauma she’s been through. Suffering from past demons, she feels unfit for duty and content to retire—until Turk walks into her life. Turk, a former Marine Corps dog, wounded in battle, suffers from his own demons. But he never lets it show as he gives everything to Faith to get her back on her feet. Each are slow to warm up to each other, but when they do, they are inseparable. Each is equally determined to hunt down the demons chasing them, whatever the cost, and to watch each other’s backs—even at the risk of their own life. A page-turning and harrowing crime thriller featuring a brilliant and tortured FBI agent, the Faith Bold 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.

Faith, Michael and Turk are sent to Chicago to investigate the murders of young women whose necks have been broken and are left posed naked covered in some kind of colored powder. They have to figure this one out fast before another woman dies. Really enjoyed this book and definitely enjoying this series!
I love a good series but after 17 books of copycats of the original serial killer in book 1 coming after the same FBI agent is getting old. Also, these last few books are riddled with spelling errors, including the names of the main characters. I will finish reading the released books in this series I’ve already purchased but do not plan to buy more if the series continues.
Interest plot line with some twists and turns. The characters are well developed and their relationship adds to the story, giving it greater depth. These books are still fresh and new even though 17 now in the series. Looking forward to finishing this series.
