Description

A trusted doctor with a deadly secret.

When a routine medical procedure leaves one girl missing and another dead, private investigator Dana Mulder dives headfirst into a chilling case. What she uncovers is terrifying: a respected doctor with a deadly obsession and a trail of victims buried under decades of deception.

With only circumstantial evidence and a rising body count, Dana teams up with her detective brother to stop a killer hiding in plain sight. But as she closes in, the case takes a dark turn—an old enemy from her past has returned, determined to make her his next victim.

In N. Gray's Deadly Pattern, the first in the gripping Dana Mulder Suspense Thriller Series, the hunt for the truth is a race against time. Can Dana outsmart a killer before she becomes the next piece in his sinister puzzle?
