Part of Series

Words can manipulate minds and mobilize armies. They have the power to unite and to destroy. No one understands this better than Carter Wainwright, a cult leader who murdered Detective Samantha Reilly’s partner ten years ago then vanished. Wainwright has resurfaced in Fall River, and his influence is stronger than ever. The charismatic psychopath has never had a problem attracting fanatics to his sadistic causes, but now even the most unlikely are falling victim to his voice. After an attack at a psychiatric care facility where friends of her foster son, Michael, reside, Sam begins investigating the hospital and its mysterious new doctor. The clock ticks down as her investigations intensify. The stakes have never been higher as she tracks down the most dangerous foe she’s ever faced, not knowing who she can trust. But can she hunt a killer and keep Michael and his friends safe while a killer hunts them all?

In his head, Jason Parent lives in many places, but in the real world, he calls New England his home. The region offers an abundance of settings for his writing and many wonderful places in which to write them. He currently resides in Southeastern Massachusetts with his cuddly corgi named Calypso. In a prior life, Jason spent most of his time in front of a judge . . . as a civil litigator. When he finally tired of Latin phrases no one knew how to pronounce and explaining to people that real lawsuits are not started, tried and finalized within the 60-minute timeframe they see on TV (it's harassing the witness; no one throws vicious woodland creatures at them), he traded in his cheap suits for flip flops and designer stubble. The flops got repossessed the next day, and he's back in the legal field . . . sorta. But that's another story. When he's not working, Jason likes to kayak, catch a movie, travel any place that will let him enter, and play just about any sport (except that ball tied to the pole thing where you basically just whack the ball until it twists into a knot or takes somebody's head off - he misses the appeal). And read and write, of course. He does that too sometimes.
