Blindsighted Book Description
The killer strikes in plain sight . . . but you’ll never see it coming.
The mutilation murder of a young college professor paralyzes a tiny Georgian community.
This hideous crime is the worst thing small-town pediatrician and coroner Sara Linton has ever seen — but only when the autopsy is complete is the intricate, terrible genius of a profoundly twisted psychopath truly revealed.
As Sara’s ex-husband — Heartsdale police chief Jeffrey Tolliver — pursues an elusive fiend, Lena Adams — the victim’s sister and the county’s only female detective — swears she’ll have her personal vengeance.
But their worst fears are realized by the macabre crucifixion of a second local woman: there is a serial slayer in their midst, one whose identity is hidden somewhere in Sara Linton’s secret past.
And this killer has no intention of stopping . . . and will not be stopped.
