From the #1 NYT bestselling author: After a thirty-year search for a serial killer, FBI agent Drex Easton becomes a suspect's next-door neighbor -- but can he navigate a shocking series of twists and turns to track down the truth?

FBI agent Drex Easton is relentlessly driven by a single goal: to outmaneuver the conman once known as Weston Graham. Over the past thirty years, Weston has assumed many names and countless disguises, enabling him to lure eight wealthy women out of their fortunes before they disappeared without a trace, their families left without answers and the authorities without clues. The only common trait among the victims: a new man in their life who also vanished, leaving behind no evidence of his existence . . . except for one signature custom.

Drex is convinced that these women have been murdered, and that the man he knows as Weston Graham is the sociopath responsible. But each time Drex gets close to catching him, Weston trades one persona for another and disappears again. Now, for the first time in their long game of cat and mouse, Drex has a suspect in sight.

Attractive and charming, Jasper Ford is recently married to a successful businesswoman many years his junior, Talia Shafer. Drex insinuates himself into their lives, posing as a new neighbor and setting up surveillance on their house. The closer he gets to the couple, the more convinced he becomes that Jasper is the clever, merciless predator he's sought--and that his own attraction to Talia threatens to compromise his purpose and integrity.

This is Drex's one chance to outfox his cunning nemesis before he murders again and eludes justice forever. But first he must determine if the desirable Talia is a heartless accomplice . . . or the next victim.

THOUGHTS/REVIEW:

FBI Agent Drex Easton is driven to outfox a conman known as Weston Graham, a man so mysterious has assumed multiple identities. Graham is known to have lured eight wealthy women not only of their fortunes but also their mysterious disappearances. Each of these wealthy women all had a new beau who vanishes into thin air leaving no trace except for a new suspect that just might fit the profile.

This is my first Sandra Brown book and I am a fan of her work. She writes an intelligent cat and mouse story that is sexy, captivating, complex and intriguing to me as a reader that I cannot turn those pages fast enough. Brown really built up the plot and I enjoyed the characters in this story. I highly recommend this amazing read from the brilliant Sandra Brown.
