Unsafe Haven

For fans of Karin Slaughter and Michael Connelly comes a gripping thriller where Christmas lights hide deadly secrets.

Officer Eden Mercer has something to prove. A rookie cop in a small Oregon town, she's still fighting to outrun the fundamentalist cult that shaped her—and nearly destroyed her. Her K-9 partner, Shadow, is the only backup she trusts completely.

A routine welfare check on a bitter December morning changes everything. Behind the decorated door, a domestic-violence counselor lies murdered in her ransacked office, her confidential files ripped apart. Someone wanted those names. Someone desperate enough to kill for them.

While the Christmas market glitters on Main Street, Eden and Shadow hunt a predator moving through the shadows of this tight-knit community—silencing the survivors the counselor died protecting. The killer is methodical. Patient. And he's not finished.

Eden understands what it means to flee people who claim to love you. She knows what happens when they catch you. Now she's racing to reach the women on that stolen list before he does—because the last name scrawled at the bottom might be hers.
