The Butterfly Murders

Special Agent Kara Martin swore she'd never return to Rochester, the town steeped in memories of her parents' brutal murders. For thirteen years, she's buried the past and built a career chasing justice. But when a congressman's teenage daughter is savagely killed, Kara is thrust back into the place she's tried to forget-and into the path of the man whose heart she once shattered.

Detective Shane Rogers has endured his own tragedies: the loss of his wife and the near loss of his son to a rare heart condition. Now, with his son thriving after a life-saving transplant, Shane has reclaimed his passion for solving crimes. His first case back-a grisly murder-throws him face-to-face with Kara, his first love and the woman who broke his heart.

As Kara and Shane race to catch a killer targeting transplant recipients, they're forced to confront their shared past and a rising tide of emotions they thought were buried. Each new murder reveals a chilling pattern, as the killer harvests organs mirroring the ones the victims had received.

When Shane's son is kidnapped, the case takes a horrifying turn, and the clock begins ticking. Can Kara and Shane stop the killer before the boy becomes the next victim?
