Freezing temperatures can kill…
A serial killer the press has dubbed the Christmas killer is taking lives…and he’s not finished yet.All Special Agent Gia Franklin’s sister Carly wanted was for Gia to come home for Christmas.
But Gia avoids the holidays, using her job as an excuse to stay away. For weeks, she’s been tracking The Christmas Killer, a cold-hearted monster who strangles his victims and poses them with one of the Twelve Days of Christmas ornaments. With nine women dead, and only four days until Christmas, she must stop him before he kills again.
Then he makes the case personal by kidnapping Carly, and Gia must go home.
Aware she may be walking into a trap, she teams up with sexy, local Sheriff Murphy Malone to stop the madness, and save the holiday for her sister and the town.
But the clock is ticking.
And the CK has his own holiday plans – ornaments eleven and twelve belong to the Franklin sisters, and he won’t stop until they’re dead…
Enjoy an Excerpt
Gia pounded her pillow in frustration. She hadn’t slept in two days. But even exhausted, sleep eluded her.
The screams of the dead girls echoed in her ears.
When she closed her eyes, their beautiful gazes, frozen in the shock of death, stared back at her.
She had to stop this madness before he reached a dozen. He could disappear. Or start over again next year.
Her phone buzzed on the nightstand and she snatched it, hoping again for a tip. Carly again.
The last thing she felt like doing was arguing with her sister tonight. She’d thought they had the holiday visit settled. It was just too hard for her to go back to that house. To the bedroom where she’d grown up. To the pictures on the mantle when they were together.
She rolled over and punched the pillow again. But the phone continued to ring. Battling anger and fatigue, she snatched it and connected the call. Before she could speak, a low wail echoed over the line.
“Help me, Gia…please help me!”
“Carly –”
Cold terror swept over Gia as the phone line died in her hand.

USA Today Bestselling and award-winning author Rita Herron fell in love with books at the ripe age of eight when she read her first Trixie Belden mystery.

Having sold over fifty books to date, she enjoys spinning spine-tingling romantic suspense tales filled with murder, mayhem, and spicy romance as well as sexy romantic comedies. Rita Herron currently writes romantic suspense for Harlequin Intrigue and she’s writing dark, gritty romantic suspense thrillers for Amazon Montlake.
