SSA Jade Monroe’s much-needed vacation is about to begin, and she can’t wait. Jack Steele, her former partner at the sheriff’s office, has offered her a weeklong stay at his family cabin in Hudson, Wisconsin. Being there alone for half a week isn’t at the top of Jade’s list, but her sister, Amber, will arrive in several days. Until then, Jade will make the best of it. After all, what could go wrong in paradise? But two convicts have just escaped the correctional facility across the river. They need a car, and Jade’s will do just fine. Two things work in their favor—Jade has the perfect vehicle, and she’s alone at a remote cabin. Everything that could go wrong does. Jade disappears without a trace, and the FBI, her former colleagues, and local law enforcement conduct a frantic search for the missing agent. Jade fights to stay alive, but those convicts have a dangerous agenda, and it goes way beyond her. Editorial Review “FBI Agent Jade Monroe is finally on vacation, enjoying a lakeside cabin by herself for a few days until her sister can join her. But two escaped convicts have ended up in the area, and their discovery of a single woman with a cool car fits in nicely with their plans. After Jade fails to check in with her family, alarm bells ring, and officers are soon looking for her. Tense and fast-moving, this Jade Monroe tale is a nail-biter from the get-go and doesn’t let up.” Angela M., Line Editor, Red Adept Editing FBI Agent Jade Monroe Live or Die Series books are listed in chronological order below

C.M. Sutter was born in San Jose, California and split time between the sunny California coast and Milwaukee, Wisconsin. As a senior in high school, she chose Wisconsin as her permanent address. After many years in the Badger State, she decided on a warmer year-round climate to call home and moved south. Years of progression took her from working in large companies, to twelve years as a massage therapist, and finally, owning a corporation. She has been self-employed for over twenty years. Ms. Sutter has been writing and self-publishing since 2014 with eleven titles published in a different genre. Because of her deep interest in crime and thriller novels, she took up writing in the police procedural/crime thriller genre in 2016.
