Maggie O'Dell

Alex Kava

When brutal murders of young boys grip Platte City, Nebraska, the horrifying truth emerges: the man recently executed for the crimes was merely a copycat, and the real predator remains at large. Sheriff Nick Morrelli and FBI criminal profiler Maggie O'Dell must race against time to stop a killer who is not only evading capture but savoring every moment of his deadly game. As the investigation intensifies and Morrelli's own nephew vanishes, Maggie realizes the killer is deliberately staying one step ahead, turning this case into a deeply personal battle of wits. With a predator who kills with calculated precision and chilling enjoyment, O'Dell must use her expertise to uncover the psychological darkness driving these crimes before another victim falls. A gripping thriller that explores the cat-and-mouse game between hunter and hunted, where evil wears a human face and the stakes have never been higher.
