When the Wicked Prosper - Paperback

by Mila Cross (Author), David Archer (Author)

In Bangor, Maine, a priest is found dead in his own church. Twenty-eight stab wounds, and he's been sealed inside a body bag.

The ultra-violent nature of the case draws the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit, and rookie agent Maya Frost - only three weeks into the job - is sent to investigate. More bodies follow, and Maya soon realizes she's hunting more than a serial killer. This monster is targeting a specific type of person, and won't stop until his mission is complete

Paired up with veteran agent Devon Lynch, Maya is hunting a psychopath who's already three steps ahead. And she's got a secret from her previous case - a piece of evidence she pocketed and can't explain - burning a hole in her conscience.

As the body count climbs and the killer grows bolder, Maya races to find him before he finds his next victim. But as she uncovers the truth, one question haunts her: how do you stop someone who believes he's a savior?

Gripping, disturbing, and relentlessly suspenseful, this twist-filled FBI thriller will keep you reading long past bedtime. Perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn, Karen Slaughter, and Lisa Regan!
