to review a twenty-year-old autopsy report &#x2013; there&#x2019;s only one thing Evan can be sure of: simple is the one thing it won&#x2019;t be. As he heads off to Cape Ann on the Massachusetts coast Evan soon finds himself on the trail of a female serial killer, and the more he digs, the more two questions align themselves. Why has the connection not been made before? And is Crow&#x2019;s interest in finding the truth or in saving his own skin?<br/><br/>It&#x2019;s a difficult line Evan is forced to walk when the answers he finds threaten to drive a wedge between himself and Detective Kate Guillory as he struggles with his conscience and she with her duty, a grievous criminal act from their shared past only making things more difficult still, demanding compromise of them both.<br/><br/>And as the case draws to a close and Evan unravels twenty years&#x2019; of duplicity and obfuscation, one simple mistake leads to unforeseen and disastrous consequences while at the same time teaching him a painful lesson too late &#x2013; that even those you trust the most will let you down.</span><br> <span style="float:right" id="preview"></span> <br><br>Genre: <a class="ameritxt" href="/genres/?gp=M">Mystery</a><br> </div> <br> <div class="sectionhead">Visitors also looked at these books</div><br><div class="similarbook"><a href="/e/warren-easley/deadly-redemption.htm"><img alt="cover of Deadly Redemption" src="/img/_.png" data-US="51jIpn2Cw7L._SL500_.jpg" data-GB="51jIpn2Cw7L._SL500_.jpg" data-CA="51jIpn2Cw7L._SL500_.jpg" data-AU="51jIpn2Cw7L._SL500_.jpg" width="120" height="185"></a><br><a href="/e/warren-easley/deadly-redemption.htm">Deadly Redemption</a><br>(<span class="iseries"><a href="/e/warren-easley/cal-claxton-mysteries/">Cal Claxton Mysteries</a>, book 10</span>)<br><a href="/e/warren-easley/">Warren C Easley</a></div><div class="similarbook"><a href="/h/blair-howard/unfinished-business.htm"><img alt="cover of Unfinished Business" src="/img/_.png" data-US="51GiEKuKN0L._SL500_.jpg" data-GB="51GiEKuKN0L._SL500_.jpg" data-CA="51GiEKuKN0L._SL500_.jpg" data-AU="51GiEKuKN0L._SL500_.jpg" width="120" height="185"></a><br><a href="/h/blair-howard/unfinished-business.htm">Unfinished Business</a><br>(<span class="iseries"><a href="/h/blair-howard/harry-starke/">Harry Starke</a>, book 24</span>)<br><a href="/h/blair-howard/">Blair Howard</a></div><div class="similarbook"><a href="/m/john-misak/third-and-long.htm"><img alt="cover of Third and Long" src="/img/_.png" data-US="41yRLSUnIbL._SL500_.jpg" data-GB="41yRLSUnIbL._SL500_.jpg" data-CA="41yRLSUnIbL._SL500_.jpg" data-AU="41yRLSUnIbL._SL500_.jpg" width="120" height="185"></a><br><a href="/m/john-misak/third-and-long.htm">Third and Long</a><br>(<span class="iseries"><a href="/m/john-misak/john-keegan-mystery/">John Keegan Mystery</a>, book 10</span>)<br><a href="/m/john-misak/">John Misak</a></div><div class="similarbook"><a href="/r/e-h-reinhard/insatiable.htm"><img alt="cover of Insatiable" src="/img/_.png" data-US="41d0RmP9OHL._SL500_.jpg" data-GB="41d0RmP9OHL._SL500_.jpg" data-CA="41d0RmP9OHL._SL500_.jpg" data-AU="41d0RmP9OHL._SL500_.jpg" width="120" height="185"></a><br><a href="/r/e-h-reinhard/insatiable.htm">Insatiable</a><br>(<span class="iseries"><a href="/r/e-h-reinhard/nash-harrington-crime-thriller/">Nash Harrington Crime Thriller</a>, book 13</span>)<br><a href="/r/e-h-reinhard/">E H Reinhard</a></div><div class="spacer"></div><br> <div id="usedsection" class="sectionhead">Used availability for James Harper's Once Bitten</div> <iframe id="abeframe" style="visibility:hidden;" width="710" height="0" src="about:blank" data-src="/frames/abe.001.htm"></iframe> <br> <div id="genre-list"></div> <!--ff-bottom-ad--> <div class="ad-banner-bottom"> <!-- /34217560/bottom-multi-adsense --> <div id='div-gpt-ad-1561798315429-0'> <script> if (!noads) googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1561798315429-0'); }); </script> </div> </div> <!--/ff-bottom-ad--> <!--footer--> <br> <div class="search"> <form action="/search/"><span class="searchtxt">Search for &nbsp;</span><select class="searchselect" name="searchfor" onchange="this.form.keywords.focus();"><option selected="selected" value="author">Author</option><option value="book">Book</option><option value="series">Series</option></select> &nbsp;<input class="searchinput" type="text" name="keywords" maxlength="60" required> &nbsp;<input type="submit" value="Find"></form> </div> <a href="/about.htm">About Fantastic Fiction</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="/information-for-authors.htm">Information for Authors</a> <br> <div class="footer"> <a href="/privacy.htm">Privacy Policy</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="/cookie-policy.htm">Cookie Policy</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="/terms.htm">Terms</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="/affiliate-disclosure.htm">Affiliate disclosure</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="/preferences.htm">Preferences</a> <br> Questions?
