Synopsis
An FBI agent with an uncanny ability to sense danger must hunt down a serial killer through the wilderness of Colorado, in this tense and gripping thrill ride by bestselling author CJ Leede. Perfect for fans of The Shining and Longlegs.
Every instinct tells him to run. Every memory tells him he can’t.
Special Agent Daniel Stansfield is ready for a change. Burnt out and defeated by the job, it’s his last day with the FBI. But before he can turn in his badge, he’s summoned back to Denver, the city he ran from four years ago, with a chilling message: it's happening again.
Seemingly innocent people are waking up on the side of the highway, with no memory of how they got there, wearing the skin of victims they've allegedly never met. And they each share one haunting detail: a strand of a stranger’s hair is tied around their tongue.
Now Daniel is pulled back into the gruesome cycle, and every clue leads him deeper into the shadows of his own past. He will have to confront the ghosts of his traumatic childhood and face what’s been hunting him all along - before he and the people he loves become the next victims.

Reviews
Gory and brutal and beautiful and painful and terrifying and a pure delight
Blood-soaked, heart-wrenching, grim and glorious. CJ Leede is a singular talent
Brutally violent, and, as with her previous novel, Maeve Fly, Leede doesn't pull a single punch
Bold, fiercely sharp, and deeply unsettling
