Description
An FBI agent's hunt for a killer resurrects ghosts from his past in a romantic thriller that "expertly twines terror and true love" (Publishers Weekly, starred review).
Ex-Navy SEAL Tucker Frost has seen evil up close. His own brother Jason was a sadistic serial killer. A killer Tucker himself put down in order to save Jason's final victim—Dawn Alexander, the only girl who got away from the infamous "Iceman."
It's Tucker's personal experience with evil that makes him perfect for Samantha Dark's experimental profiling division in the FBI. And when women start turning up murdered with the same MO used by the Iceman, Tucker is sent back to Louisiana to investigate.
Seven years have passed since Tucker faced down his brother . . . and since he last saw Dawn, his former lover. But as Tucker and Dawn grapple with a desire that never died, they must also face the terrifying thought that Jason Frost has somehow come back from the dead to hunt again . . .

        Starred review from June 12, 2017
        Eden expertly twines terror and true love in her second Killer Instinct contemporary romantic thriller (following After the Dark). As a teen, Dawn Alexander was the sole survivor of a serial killer named Jason Frost; she was saved by Jason’s brother, Tucker, who shot him to save her. Seven years later, Dawn is working as a private investigator in New Orleans and is determined not to be a victim ever again. Tucker, who joined the SEALs and is now with the FBI, is an honorable man—unlike his sadistic father and evil brother. When a serial killer starts operating in New Orleans with his brother’s hallmarks, Tucker and his FBI team move in, not sure whether they’ll find a copycat or Jason somehow returned from the dead. Either way, Tucker believes Dawn is in danger, and he’ll do anything to keep her safe, even if it means sacrificing his own life. Eden employs countless red herrings, making it impossible to tell who the real killer is until the book’s end. This winning tale is a tightly plotted, expertly characterized adrenaline rush from start to finish.
