Blood Test: A Heart-Stopping FBI Thriller

FBI Agent Jade Monroe: Live or Die #14

by C. M. Sutter

Five women have vanished in Asheville, North Carolina. No witnesses, no bodies, only abandoned cars left on dark, empty roads. Each disappearance defies logic. Why would any woman pull over alone at night and simply disappear?

With the investigation stalled and pressure mounting, the FBI’s Serial Crimes Unit sends Agents Jade Monroe and Lorenzo DeLeon to uncover the truth. The pattern is clear—someone is using a calculated ruse to lure victims out of their cars—but the how and why remain a mystery.

When rookie deputy Carrie Smythe joins Jade in chasing leads, her instincts prove sharp but not sharp enough. She vanishes in broad daylight, turning a cold case into a desperate search for answers.

Now the clock is ticking. Because if Jade doesn’t find the connection soon, Carrie will become just another car left behind—and another woman gone without a trace.

This was another good read, been awhile since I read a Jade Monroe book, but I enjoyed it.

C. M. Sutter has a sick mind. I found this one pretty gruesome and parts were unbelievable, like when Jade, out of the clear blue, seemed to know all about the procedure the killer was using.

Powerful Book

Unfortunately, there are a lot of criminals out there that have no respect for human lives. We live in a crazy world.
