But even though Harry is the only game in town, business—to put it mildly—stinks. So when the Chicago P.D. bring him in to consult on a double homicide committed with black magic, Harry's seeing dollar signs.

The last act has begun… A week ago, a woman’s body was found in a park. A day later, images of her death surfaced on the dark web. A snuff film depicting the horror of her final moments. The murder was shocking. The video was worse. Now, a second victim has been found. And yet another film is spreading. FBI Special Agent Amelia Storm has seen horror before, but this case is different. Too calculated. Too performative. Too real. With her former case partner—and now lover—back at her side, she’s racing to unmask the monster behind the camera before he casts his next victim.

This killer is setting the world on fire. One house at a time. Special Agent Amelia Storm thought she’d seen the darkest corners of humanity after facing a killer who exploited social media to broadcast his twisted “message.” But her latest case in the FBI Violent Crimes Unit plunges her into a new nightmare—one that catapults her from the frying pan into the fire. Literally. In the dead of night, an affluent Chicago neighborhood becomes a hellscape as an arsonist claims an entire family, leaving nothing but charred remains and unanswered questions. This is no isolated incident.

Detective Bec Whitfield thought she'd found paradise in tropical Mission Beach—and maybe even love with charming local developer Jake Morrison. But when Cyclone Meredith threatens the coast, emergency preparations uncover a twenty-year-old secret buried in concrete. The skeletal remains belong to Marcus "Moondog" Sullivan, a former Sydney property developer turned environmental activist who vanished in 2004 during heated battles over coastal development. Marcus had made powerful enemies on both sides of the conservation debate, and someone wanted him silenced permanently.

In her new role with the Bureau’s Violent Crime Unit, Special Agent Amelia Storm is ready to focus on new types of crimes—ones that aren’t mob related. She didn’t, however, expect her first case to take her to rural Illinois, where the tranquil waters of Lake Henry have been guarding a grim secret. Three corpses...and that’s just the beginning. Among the deceased are two recent victims, a young couple last seen camping in the nearby wilderness preserve. A third, a grim echo from years past, is a set of bones picked clean and left to whisper secrets of an older, darker crime.

Special Agent Amelia Storm, a seasoned FBI veteran, thought stepping away from the Organized Crime Unit and its mafia entanglements would lead to less complex and dangerous cases. She was wrong. Now in the Violent Crimes Division, Amelia is haunted by a chilling pattern that mirrors mob brutality. Murder as a message. How else can she explain why this serial killer murders everyone in the home but leaves the victim alive...and horrifically disfigured by acid? Four victims in two years. All women with dark-brown hair. All social media influencers with a substantial following.

Murderers never take a break, so when the body of a twenty-nine-year-old middle school gym teacher is discovered, Special Agents Amelia Storm and Zane Palmer are called in to help the Violent Crimes Division with one of their most puzzling cases to date. Because this isn’t just a random crime... It’s far more bizarre. The latest victim is the fifth to be found dumped in a rural area south of Chicago. The victims have little in common, except one thing...their internal organs have been removed with a precision that only a surgeon could achieve.

Hinweise auf ein Gewaltverbrechen gibt es nicht, auch keinen Leichenfund. 35 Jahre später wird in der ehemaligen Klinik – das Gebäude ist längst zur Ruine verfallen – ein in eine Zwischenwand eingemauerter Leichnam gefunden: Tommy Svensson, gestorben an Herzstillstand aufgrund einer Überdosis Beruhigungsmittel. Jetzt ist es ein Fall!

When a five-year-old girl reports being saved by a mysterious being in the middle of a tornado, her story is readily dismissed. But less so the computer-assisted discovery of a pattern in a series of deaths that suggests they are no accident. Special agent Ilona Farris of the FBI puzzles over how a killer could predict the storm events so accurately, yet stops short at believing they are dealing with the thunder beings of Native American legend.

Nothing is quite as it seems, and everything points towards a life he thought he’d left behind. In Galloway, a wealthy corporation makes a big investment in a quiet corner of rural Scotland. But who are they really? And what do they want with a disused airbase?
