4.Dark Deeds

This time, the killer is hiding in plain sight.

The suspicious fire that destroyed the shed exposes a surprise corpse—not what ghostwriter Megan Scott and investigative reporter Michael Elliott expected when they reserved a cabin at their friends’ lakeside resort in Ontario.

Fear overshadows their visit when their friends receive anonymous threatening letters, an elderly resident is reported missing, and then a child vanishes. When Michael makes a connection to a cold case, evidence points to an ex-convict looking for revenge. He’s had reconstructive surgery. He could be anyone.

5.Hotel rooms often come with perks. A corpse isn’t one of them.

Ghostwriter Megan Scott and investigative reporter Michael Elliott discover the body of a young woman in their Ottawa hotel room. She’s wearing a black lace teddy. A carafe of red wine and two glasses sit on a table. A closer look inside her purse reveals thousands of dollars, three business cards, and a supply of pills.

The detective initially writes off Becca Landry’s death as an open-and-shut case of overdose, but Frank Landry, an ex-military, believes his wife was murdered. As Megan and Michael dig deeper, they expose the dark underbelly of a city where widespread fraud, illegal drug trafficking, and a sense of entitlement defy the system.

6.The message is one simple word: Vengeance.

Anonymous threats aren’t unusual for a crime reporter. Michael Elliott has assisted the police with putting enough criminals behind bars to have earned his fair share.

But when Megan Scott, the love of his life and investigative partner, goes missing, Michael realizes this threat is real. He has a list of five potential kidnappers for the police to investigate, but he can’t wait for them to find Megan. Someone is out for revenge, and now they’ve given him just forty-eight hours to find her or she dies.
