Cross Your Heart
(2018)(The second book in the Detective Jess Bishop series)
A novel by Kierney Scott
She took in the bleak darkness of her surroundings. She knew there was no way out. All she could do was wait until it was her turn...just like the others.
Three young girls are missing, all of them cold cases and all of them forgotten. When Detective Jess Bishop identifies a disturbing link between them, she's determined to find out what happened to the girls as she fights to reopen their cases. At the scene of each abduction, the killer left a clue - a small bag of cotton candy - in place of the missing child.
Then a fourth child is taken. Eight-year-old Ava is snatched from her hospital bed, and Jess suspects right away that it's linked to the other cases. As Ava's illness worsens, Jess is in a race against time to save the girl before it's too late.
But is she missing something right in front of her, something that could put other lives in danger? Will she risk the lives of her loved ones to rescue the child she so badly wants to save? And can she get there before another child is taken?
If you love Robert Dugoni, Karin Slaughter, and Lisa Gardner, you'll love Kierney Scott. Cross Your Heart is a gripping thriller that will have your pulse racing.
