Before Evil (Maggie O'Dell)

International bestseller Alex Kava delivers a stunning prequel to her critically acclaimed Maggie O' Dell series.

Special Agent Maggie O'Dell doesn't need to set foot at a crime scene to catch a serial killer. From her small Quantico office, she's profiled criminals using just Polaroids and faxed copies of evidence from homicide detectives across the country.

Then comes Albert Stucky . . . a sadistic madman who enjoys his twisted games as much as he enjoys the kill. And his killing grounds are the backwoods of Virginia, right on Maggie's doorstep. Tasked with profiling the murders, she must face the gruesome crime scenes firsthand.

When Stucky discovers Maggie is part of the taskforce to stop him, he begins to taunt her. He leaves notes and clues for Maggie to follow, daring her to catch him. But can she hunt him down before he makes her his next victim?

LET THE CHASE BEGIN.
