An extraordinarily beautiful Amish woman, a dangerous femme fatale, is the central figure in a story that reveals a dark side of Painters Mill and its seemingly perfect Amish world A rainy night, an Amish father returning home with his three children, a speeding car hurtling toward them out of nowhere. What at first seems like a tragic, but routine car accident suddenly takes on a more sinister cast as evidence emerges that nothing about the crash is accidental. But who would want to kill an Amish deacon and two of his children? He leaves behind a grieving widow and a young boy who clings to life in the intensive care wing of a hospital, unable to communicate. He may be the only one who knows what happened that night. Desperate to find out who killed her best friend's husband and why, Kate begins to suspect she is not looking for a reckless drunk, but instead is on the trail of a cold blooded killer amid the residents of Painter's Mill. It is a search that takes her on a chilling journey into the darkest reaches of the human heart and makes her question everything she has ever believed about the Amish culture into which she was born.

Book Description
She used to chase killers . . . Now one is chasing her Deep inside a national forest, former Special Agent Ricki James stands in the middle of a killing field that was never meant to be found. With the carnage lying all around her, Ricki knows one thing for sure: a killer who hides his work so well, intends to go on killing. The single mom already has enough complications in her life, and a whole lot of dead bodies isn't helping matters. She has a son to support, an ex-husband who is also her business partner to deal with, and a slightly shabby diner to run so she can make ends meets. She's already seen the worst side of humanity and has no intention of stepping into that world again. But she hadn't counted on a serial killer murdering people in her own backyard, in a town with only a two-man police department standing between a terrifying death and everyone she loves. As the body count continues to rise, Ricki has no choice but to take up her badge again and go hunting for a madman. But he is used to being the hunter not the hunted, and he has plans of his own. Either Special Agent James will pay the ultimate price for finding his dumping ground, or someone she loves will take her place in a grave before he moves on to a new town, to kill again.
