In the Dark

"An impressive feat of writing that combines imagination, empathy, and a rock-hard edge — and never fails in its duty to maintain the ratcheting tension of a first-rate thriller." — The Sunday Times (U.K.)

Jenny Aaron was the best of the best. An expert marksman and trained in four martial arts techniques, she was the star member of an elite team charged with tracking Germany's most dangerous criminals. But when a disastrous mission ended in irreversible blindness, Jenny was forced to abandon her dangerous career. Five years later, she's still haunted by her failure when she is called upon to investigate the brutal murder of a prison psychologist. Now she must test the new skills that she's acquired in her world of darkness — but are they enough to battle a ruthless killer whose intelligence and daring match her own?
