"[This] fast-paced story holds readers with investigative detail. The fourth in a solid series."
Booklist

True-crime writer Regan Landry has followed several explosive stories but none more challenging than that
of convict Lester Barnes, a rapist and murderer, who persuades the intrepid author to reinvestigate his case.
When Regan and FBI Special Agent Mitch Peyton oblige, they discover a startling number of irregularities
including a crucial DNA mismatch. Their vigorous efforts secure Barnes's parole.

Shortly after his release, however, the ex-con vanishes, and a month later, a series of nightmarish, sexually
motivated slayings plagues North Carolina's Outer Banks. Fearing the unthinkable, Mitch, Regan, and the
FBI sweep in to confront the unspeakable: the horrifying possibility that they have set free a monster with
an insatiable appetite for death and a ruthless determination to never again be caged.
