She may have gotten away once...but Elliot Spencer is determined not to let it happen again. He has Meg Pennington just where he wants her: on a boat speeding down the Colorado River, in the aftermath of the deadly explosions that rocked the Oasis casino. But could sisterly love be the antidote to his carefully planned abduction-yet again? There's Amanda, a second-year FBI agent, and Rachael, a hardened Bullhead City detective. Both are relentless in their pursuit of the dastardly serial killer, and willing to put their lives on the line to ensure Meg's well-being. Just when it seems like he's a step ahead of the Bullhead City sisters, a turncoat emerges among his ranks-one with the power to throw a wrench in his nefarious plans once and for all. There can only be one winner in this cat-and-mouse game, but with a newly wounded Elliot thirsty for vengeance, can the Pennington family finally bring the killer to justice while remaining unscathed? A fast-paced thriller filled with high-stakes pursuits, international intrigue, and plenty of mystery, Deadly Aftermath delights as a stand-alone novel of its own, as it picks up the story from author Nancy Churchill's The 7th Victim.
