About The Taken Ones: A totally gripping crime and mystery thriller (Detective Mackenzie Price Book 4) (Unabridged)

You have two days to kill her, or you will be the next to die…. A week ago the body of a young woman named Mia Gallagher was found in an elevator shaft, 48 hours after she was snatched from her apartment in Lakemore, Washington. When a local man confesses to her killing in his suicide note, the police department believe the case is closed. But then another woman goes missing, and 48 hours later is found dead. Detective Mackenzie Price is convinced their deaths are connected. Then she finds a letter in the supposed murderer’s house and realizes the sickening truth: the victims are all part of a sinister game, and more lives are at stake. Someone wants these women dead — but isn’t killing them. Instead they are blackmailing others to do their dirty work: Become a murderer, or be the next to die. When a third woman goes missing, Mack and her partner Detective Nick Blackwood know they have just 48 hours to find her alive. Only by hunting down the blackmailer, who’s masterminding this twisted game, will they be able to stop the killings. But the blackmailer will go to any lengths to get away with murder, and now no one connected to the case is safe. Including Mack. She has spent years healing from her troubled past, learning to open her heart again but — as one of the people closest to her is sucked into the game — could she be about to lose another person she loves? A pulse-pounding thriller packed with twists. Perfect for fans of Lisa Regan, Karin Slaughter and Angela Marsons.
