An escaped killer. A troubled investigator. Secrets that haunt the past and present.

The Violet Darger series continues with this gripping short, The Last Victim.

New crimes lead FBI profiler Victor Loshak to revisit former scenes and witnesses in the Las Vegas area. The evidence suggests the return of a notorious and brutal serial killer from years ago -- the one who got away.

Loshak conceals his work from his partner, Violet Darger, and tries desperately to stay one step ahead of both her and the murderer.

Leonard Stump is back. Maybe. And things are about to get so much worse.

While the Darger books can be read in any order, here is the chronological order of the series:

Dead End Girl
Image in a Cracked Mirror (A Darger Novella)
Killing Season
The Last Victim (A Darger Novella)
