She appears only at night. Watching. Waiting . . .

When local children begin to vanish, Officer Alex Mercer is positive the cases are tied to recent threats against his family—especially since the first girl to go missing is his best friend's daughter.

It all ties back to Alex. He's sure of it.

The only solid link to the missing kids is a mysterious woman in a red dress. But that isn't enough to go on, and Alex has orders to focus on another case. As if that will stop him.

He stumbles upon something so chilling, it finally provides the proof that he was right all along—the kidnappings are part of an elaborate worldwide scheme. And he and his family have landed on the bad guys' radar.

Alex will stop at nothing to take down the dangerous criminal empire . . . if they don't end him first.
