Kenna Burke is finally ready to join the land of the living after the death of her husband almost three years ago. With the simple ring of her doorbell, an obscene evil is now threatening to take away her hopes of having a new life.

The gripping and suspenseful search for The Widow Taker continues in this mesmerizing thriller by USA Today Bestselling Author Kennedy Layne... Lincoln Roche has spent most of his career profiling serial killers, and there is one thing he is absolutely certain of—the man arrested for the most recent killing spree in Connecticut doesn’t fit the profile. Evidence soon comes to light to vindicate Linc’s theories, but that only means the tally of victims will begin to rise once again. Quinn Simmons fully believes it was her solemn duty to warn the widows of Winter Heights that a killer is targeting them for the sheer enjoyment of killing the innocent. She never intended to be The Widow Taker’s spokeswoman, but the package she receives clearly states the rules of the game—she must broadcast his messages, or else he will claim yet another victim. Linc has no choice but to work with the reporter responsible for giving this sociopath his desired recognition. His aversion quickly turns to emotions somewhat more intriguing when Quinn becomes the one woman he can’t quite fit into the usual categories. What is she hiding, and why has she become The Widow Taker’s next target? They must now race against the clock to capture a serial killer who sees himself as Quinn’s savior.

USA Today Bestselling Author Kennedy Layne brings you the stunning conclusion to The Widow Taker trilogy... Ridge Killian would have preferred to stay anonymous, given his past life as one of the most efficient snipers in recent U.S. military history. He even bought a house in a peaceful neighborhood where the most prevalent crime was not picking up after your dog. His quiet life is turned upside down when his next-door neighbor turns up half-dead on his doorstep. Lily Hudson always had an aversion to attention, but that doesn’t seem to matter when she narrowly survives an attack in her own home. She has somehow caught the attention of a serial killer dubbed The Widow Taker and is now known to the public as the lone surviving victim. Ridge finds himself in a predicament when the press leaks his identity as her savior, along with Lily’s ability to identify the killer. Their forced commiseration in protective custody spins into a sizzling chemistry neither one of them can ignore, but that only fuels The Widow Taker to eradicate the one woman who is responsible for his public humiliation.
