USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR AND AMAZON ALL-STAR AWARD WINNER

If you haven’t started reading this series yet you really need to download it and grab hold of this wild ride. I absolutely love this series!” – Amazon Review

In the emptiness of unoccupied homes, a killer is leaving his signature. And his victims…



When a struggling contractor discovers a crime scene at a construction site that lost funding months ago, the county sheriff expects a one-off horror. When another crime scene in a different county is revealed, the sheriff realizes someone is working out their trauma on women and children, but why?



Soon, the local media gets wind of the story, Sadie’s face is plastered everywhere, and news of an active serial killer spreads like wildfire. Fortunately, the sheriff anticipated this and asked ASAC Blackwood to send in his Special Agents Sadie Gray and Brad Tulle.



After the horrifying events of her last case shook her to her core, Sadie claims she’s ready for a fresh hunt. But with her personal life in free-fall, her romantic life spiraling out of control, and a desperate need for family, she leans on Brad at work and Aria at home.



The clues are mounting but going nowhere, everyone is frustrated, and just when Sadie asks herself what could go worse, worse happens in spades…



From the framed shells of new construction to nearly complete builds, every empty house holds its bodies, the atmosphere of death, and hopefully the smallest thread by which they can bring the killing to an end. Despite Sadie and Brad tightening the net, this designer of death adapts faster than they can pivot. Maybe he’s nursing old wounds, but he could also be unleashing a spree of terror unlike California's capital city has seen in decades...



If you crave dark, twisty FBI procedurals with serial-killer stakes, sharp forensic detail, and a ride-or-die partnership that blurs the lines between personal and professional, you’ll tear through The Choir of Empty Houses—an honest-to-God, edge-of-your-seat, page-turner built on trauma, intense casework, and a final reveal that’ll hit you like a slammed door.



Join Sadie Gray and Brad Tulle on their most personal case yet! Grab your copy of The Choir of Empty Houses now and see what all the hype is about...

I absolutely am in love with the Sadie Grey series. It’s an FBI procedural series with characters you can’t help but fall in love with. With each book they get better and better. Watching them grow together as a team who always catches the bad guy. The chemistry of these 2 just work. It’s a must reach series and I can’t wait for the next installment….

Yet another win.

I am addicted to these Sadie Gray FBI stories. Humor, horror and 'edge of your seat' mind blowing. I wait in anticipation for next in the series. I hope they never end. You have to start at the beginning to understand the intricacies of the characters. It's worth it.

Good read!

I've never been disappointed after reading a Sadie Gray book. This one was no exception. It ran in a slightly different direction, but the storyline, writing, characters all hit the mark. If you haven't read any of the Sadie Gray books before this one, I encourage you to do so. They're all fantastic!

I was soooo ready!

I can't get enough of Sadie and Brad. Love the FBI procedures and all the action, but love the chemistry more. I am literally so excited to see what happens next! Waiting with bated breath for the next installment.

Love this series!

The storyline in this book, along with the entire series, is excellent! Love Brad and Sadie, but I'm sure their "relationship" would not be happening in the "real" FBI. I'm going to miss those two when the series is completed, which is one more book to go!
