Alicia Hawkins is not your average serial killer.
She didn’t tear the wings off butterflies when she was a kid, and she never killed a neighbor’s cat. But now, she's back in Aspen and on the hunt for her next victim. The picturesque town of Aspen, Colorado serves as the backdrop for Alicia’s twisted game. The snow-capped mountains and luxurious ski resorts provide the perfect cover for her sinister plans. Alicia is a master manipulator, using her charm and beauty to lure unsuspecting victims into her trap. But beneath her facade lies a deep-seated darkness, fueled by a promise she made to her late grandfather. A promise that will embolden her and secure both her and her grandfather’s sick legacies. Colorado Bureau of Investigation agent Buck Taylor is thrown into the case when Alicia sends him a message carved into one of her victims. But as he delves deeper, he realizes that this killer has honed her craft and is now a top-tier predator. With time running out, Buck must race against the clock to stop Alicia before she strikes again. But as the body count rises, Buck's own personal ties to the case become more apparent. And when one of his oldest friends becomes Alicia’s next target, Buck must confront a difficult truth: will he be able to stop her before she kills again? If you enjoy psychological thrillers with a strong, female lead, then you'll love "Crime Denied".
