Darkwater Bay is sliding back into dangerous territory. Between upheaval in the police department and the semi-retirement of Helen Eriksson, criminals have found another foothold. A new face in the department offers hope, if only she'll commit. Mere hours after her arrival, all hell breaks loose, when a high-profile mass murder lights the city afire all over again.
Sygnet was a mastermind of schoolyard schemes as a child who grew into someone who channeled that inner criminal onto the pages of books. In the real world, the profession is nursing, psychiatric variety.
Devoted to family, friends and dogs in middle age, Sygnet spends most spare time plotting fiction, reading obsessively or playing with her four-legged children – the dogs.
Sygnet is a rabid NBA fan and loves the elliptical when the plot gets elusive. Nothing like endorphins to light the path. When endorphins fail, speed metal usually does the trick. Sygnet can often be found muttering over Pages on the iMac or the iPad, where most of the writing takes place.
