    "The girl is sixteen, at the scene of a grisly triple homicide, and has a gun to her head. She claims "The Stranger" killed her adoptive family, that he's been following her all her life, killing everyone she ever loved, and that no one believes her. No one has. Until now." "Special Agent Smoky Barrett is head of the violent crimes unit in Los Angeles, the part of the FBI reserved for tracking down the worst of the worst. Her team has been handpicked from among the nation's elite law enforcement specialists and they are as obsessed and relentless as the psychos they hunt; they'll have to be to deal with this case." "For another vicious double homicide reveals a killer embarked on a dark crusade of trauma and death: an "artist" who's molding sixteen-year-old Sarah into the perfect victim - and the ultimate weapon. But Smoky Barrett has another, more personal reason for catching The Stranger - an adopted daughter and a new life that are worth protecting at any cost." "This time Smoky is going to have to put it all on the line. Because The Stranger is all too real, all too close, and all too relentless. And when he finally shows his face, if she's not ready to confront her worst fear, Smoky won't have time to do anything but die."--Provided by publisher

    Smoky Barrett ist zurück An einem kalten Oktobertag werden Smoky Barrett und ihr Team nach Denver, Colorado, gerufen. Im Haus der Familie Wilton ist Schreckliches geschehen: Die gesamte fünfköpfige Familie wurde ermordet, und der Täter hat durch eine mit Blut geschriebene Botschaft Smoky mit der Lösung des Falles beauftragt. Doch das Unheil ist weit größer, denn die Wiltons sind nicht die einzigen Opfer. Insgesamt drei Familien wurden in der gleichen Nacht und in unmittelbarer Nähe voneinander getötet. „Komm und lerne“, lautet die Botschaft an Smoky. Es wird ein grausamer Lernprozess, das Böse in seiner reinsten Form, in seiner tiefsten Abgründigkeit zu spüren. Smoky gelangt an die Grenzen ihrer Belastbarkeit. Und weit darüber hinaus. Nach Ausgelöscht und Das Böse in uns der neue Psychothriller aus der Smoky Barrett-Reihe von Cody Mcfadyen - Hochspannung mit Gänsehaut-Potenzial!.
