Some secrets don’t stay buried.

Three elaborately staged victims. No clues. A public verging on panic.

FBI profiler Victor Loshak heads to Kansas City to hunt another serial killer. But something about this case is all wrong.

The three corpses lie posed. Face up. A glove laid to cover each right eye.

The victims seem to be selected at random. Suburban. Upper middle class. Squeaky clean. It doesn’t make sense.

A piece is missing from this puzzle.

If Loshak can find the missing link that connects the victims, he believes he can solve the case. The obstacles are many, however.

And the cryptic note someone left under his windshield wiper? It warns him that danger lurks all around.

They bury it, and they bury it, but it won't stay dead.

As Loshak digs deeper, uneasiness seems to creep over everything in the city. Paranoia. A sense of dread.

Everyone he encounters seems to be keeping things from him. Concealing something.

He gets a visceral sense of the lengths people will go to hide their sins. Bury them.

When the suburban veneer finally strips away, all the dark secrets come clear one by one.

But nothing can prepare Loshak for the shocking revelation this case unearths.

Because what lies beneath the surface? It changes everything.

This pulse-pounding thriller will have you holding your breath until the very end. Fans of James Patterson, John Sandford, and Lisa Regan should check out the Victor Loshak series.

Loshak is one of my favorite investors! This story is dark and exciting. My favorite Loshak book to date. I don't want to say too much about this book for fear of ruining it for you. Just jump in and enjoy!

I love this book!

I am a huge fan of the Violet Darger series and Victor Loshak is obviously a major part of that series, but this is the first book I’ve read in the Loshak series. I really enjoyed this book!

The ending was very surprising to me, but I have to admit that I liked it. Especially, if this isn’t the conclusion of this story. I do not want to add any spoilers, but I am very excited to see how Vargus, Smith, and McBain use the outcome of this novel in future stories. The possibilities are endless.

If you enjoy a fast-paced crime novel, this is the book for you!

Another fantastic story in the Loshak series!

It was intense yet funny! Those two together are a riot!

I will not comment on the ending, but I loved it!
I gave us even more insight into Loshak's character!

Please E.M. Smith, LT Vargus & Tim McBain, keep 'em coming!
I can't wait for #3!

As I said about him in my review of Beyond Good & Evil, no one could have narrated better than Curt Bonnem!

Loshak & Spinks are at it again!
