She left the killers behind. Now one has come for her.
Alexa Chase, 34, was one of the FBI’s top profilers—until the darkness of the killers she hunted became too much to bear. Walking away from her brilliant career, she joined the U.S. Marshals, trading psychological games for the straightforward pursuit of fugitives. But when a notorious serial killer escapes during a prison transport, Alexa is pulled back into the deadly world she tried to leave behind.
The manhunt forces an uneasy alliance between the U.S. Marshals and the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit. Alexa, haunted by her past cases, must confront the thing she fears most: stepping back inside the mind of a killer. As the bodies pile up and the killer's spree escalates, Alexa faces a terrifying truth—she may be his next target.
With a hostile new partner, dead-end leads, and a ticking clock, Alexa must play a lethal game of cat and mouse. But can she survive the darkness without losing herself to it once again?
The Killing Game is the explosive first book in the Alexa Chase Suspense Thriller series by Kate Bold—an intense, fast-paced crime thriller packed with shocking twists, complex characters, and relentless suspense.
