Sky above. Earth below. Trees around. Evil within. With two members of the Violent Crimes Unit just out of the hospital and another still recovering, things are finally beginning to settle—except for Special Agent Emma Last. Her disturbing dreams of the Other are growing more vivid, and now a desperate fortune teller from a past case arrives on her doorstep. The woman’s estranged husband took their ten-year-old camping, and they haven’t been heard from in five days. Are they lost? Or has the boy been abducted by his own father? As Emma and her team investigate, they uncover something far more disturbing than a routine missing persons case. Four other hikers have recently vanished without a trace—until a severed foot is discovered, stark evidence of something far more sinister lurking in the wilderness. As they navigate the fifteen thousand acres of unforgiving wilderness, they encounter deadly traps hidden along the trails, meticulously designed to kill. This isn’t just a man gone rogue—this is a predator, and he’s hunting them. The deeper they push into the woods, the more dangerous their mission becomes. There’s a madman on the loose, and if they’re not careful, they’ll become his dinner. Last Trace, the eleventh book in the Emma Last series by bestselling author Mary Stone, will redefine the concept of a hunger for revenge.

Mary Stone lives among the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains of East Tennessee with her two dogs, four cats, a couple of energetic boys, and a very patient husband. As a young girl, she would go to bed every night, wondering what type of creature might be lurking underneath. But instead of asking her parents to look for her, Mary looked herself. Scared, sure, but she just needed to know. Needed to see with her own eyes. It wasn’t until she was older that she learned that the creatures she needed to most fear were human. Mary has always adored puzzles of any kind and could often be found sitting in a corner with a pencil scrunched tightly in her hand, an open puzzle book on her lap. This isn't to say she's a loner. Quite the contrary, Mary has always been a leader taking her friends on many exciting adventures to hunt down and capture an assortment of bad guys pulled from her imagination. Today, instead of walking that imaginary beat, she now creates vivid stories with courageous, strong heroines and dastardly villains. She invites you to enter her world of serial killers, FBI agents but never damsels in distress. Her female characters can handle themselves, going toe-to-toe with any male character, protagonist or antagonist. Come on, open a book. Mary dares you to look under the bed with her.
