Unquiet: A Gritty Crime, Serial Killer, Small-Town Romantic Suspense, Detective Murder Mystery

By S. E. Meyer

Surviving was supposed to be the end of Mia Hart's story.

Ten years after escaping a serial strangler, Mia has rebuilt her life as the voice of UNQUIET, a true-crime podcast that refuses to look away from the cases the system got wrong. Her therapist, Elise Ward, turned the worst night of Mia's life into a mission for change.

Then the murders start.

A killer the media dubs the Advocate is hunting people inside the justice system-an ADA, an internal affairs investigator, a judge-killing them with the same kind of cord that scarred Mia's throat. Worse, he's quoting her show.

Enter Lucas Reed, the former detective whose long-buried memo once warned that Mia's attack was part of a pattern. He's the only cop who ever believed her. He's also the one Internal Affairs now suspects.

Forced into a safe house that is anything but safe, Mia and Lucas must untangle a web of hacked evidence, manipulated narratives, and a mentor who may not have been a hero at all.

To stop the Advocate, Mia will have to walk back to the river that almost took her-and decide if she can trust the man standing beside her when the cord tightens again.

From the Amazon bestselling author of 'ORIGINS' comes a new romance crime thriller.
