Description
A disgraced FBI profiler must stop a sadistic killer she knows all too well in the New York Times–bestselling author's romantic thriller series debut.
Former FBI agent Samantha Dark was one of the bureau's star profilers, an expert on the twisted minds and dark hearts of depraved criminals. But when her own former lover turned out to be the serial killer she was hunting, Samantha's career was destroyed. Blamed for the FBI's failure on the complex case, Samantha left Washington, DC, for the quiet anonymity of Alabama.
Now an all-too-familiar killer is hunting once again. To catch the cunning assassin, she must put her trust in her former partner, Blake Gamble. Ex-military, Blake is tough, protective, precise. She knows he wants her back in the FBI . . . and possibly more. But someone else wants her, too. A threat is waiting in the dark, a killer who has set his sights on the ultimate trophy victim—Samantha.
This volume includes the novella The Gathering Dusk, a prequel to After the Dark.

        February 13, 2017
        Eden (Broken Angel) shines with this taut romantic thriller, which opens her Killer Instincts series. Hotshot profiler Samantha Dark leaves the FBI in disgrace after her ex-lover, Georgetown professor Cameron Latham, is exposed as a serial killer. But her former law enforcement partner, Blake Gamble, isn’t ready to let her go. Blake knows that not everything is as it seems—and that Samantha’s plan to hide out in her old Alabama hometown won’t save her. Hiding in plain sight, Cameron is determined to show Samantha a lesson, and what’s even worse is that Cameron has an acolyte, a student who’s trying to impress his mentor. As the body count rises, Samantha and Blake race to find these predators before they become prey. Eden pulls readers into Samantha’s head from the first page and takes them on a first-class thrill ride, complete with effective red herrings and characters who practically leap off the page. This tale could have been ripped from today’s newspaper headlines; it’s deeply disturbing and impressively believable.
