Candice Fox Livres

Before the blood, before the screaming, before the fall . . . The first victim is discovered on the edge of the park. Young. Female. Beautiful. Or at least she was before her face was destroyed.

To stop a serial killer in the making, Frank will have to place his faith in his beautiful, dangerous partner Eden Archer-a cop who moonlights as a killer . . . Eden knows the temptation of evil. Her intimate knowledge of the relentless forces that drive a killer gives her a unique edge. But with each jogger found brutally murdered in Sydney's pristine parks, Eden can see where the investigation is headed. And it gives her a feeling she hasn't felt in a long time. A fear she's never known. A fear she can't escape. A fear that, after all these years, she will have to face . . .
