When victims are found dead, arranged in peculiar boxes, FBI Special Agent Rachel Gift must race to decode the killer's motive-and the meaning behind his madness-before he strikes again.
FBI Agent Rachel Gift, 33, unparalleled for her ability to enter the minds of serial killers, is a rising star in the Behavioral Crimes Unit-until a routine doctor visit reveals she has but a few months left to live.
Not wishing to burden others with her pain, Rachel decides, agonizing as it is, not to tell anyone-not even her boss, her partner, her husband, or her seven-year-old daughter. She wants to go down fighting, and to take as many serial killers with her as she can.
This new case is not what it initially seems, and Rachel must race against a ticking clock to solve it before it's too late. Can she uncover the secret behind these murders before another victim dies?
Or will this killer finally outsmart her?
