Synopsis

If looks could kill...It's the ultimate game. To win, you have to kill. To lose, you have to die. If he's chosen you to play, then it's Game Over...A brutal serial killer is on the loose. Each victim is a former beauty queen, a single rose placed next to their mutilated bodies. The scenes of unimaginable carnage have become familiar to Detective Lindsay McAllister. For the last 5 years, dozens of beautiful women have been slain and lives have been shattered, including Judd Walker whose wife was one of the first victims. But when the killer strikes again Lindsey knows she needs Judd's help. The murderer is getting bolder, faster, and more ruthless. The game has escalated, the rules have changed, the body count is rising...and no one is safe. Praise for Beverly Barton:"CLOSE ENOUGH TO KILL is not for the faint of heart! Shocking and terrifying, it will chill you to the bone. " Tess Gerritsen, author of THE MEPHISTO CLUB
