The Angie Pallorino Series

As a member of the sex crimes unit, Detective Angie Pallorino is intimately acquainted with the dark side of desire.

And when buried secrets in her past emerge, they threaten to derail both her professional ambitions and her developing relationship with a fellow detective.

 

'The Angie Pallorino series, penned by bestselling author Loreth Anne White, is a hard-hitting and gritty police procedural that will appeal to those who like their mysteries deep and their heroines edgy.'

' For those who love dark, gritty, atmospheric, female-driven Scandi Noir-toned television series like THE KILLING, THE BRIDGE, THE FALL, and Law and Order's SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT, and for readers who gravitate toward strong heroines who are also in some ways broken.'

He surfaced two years ago. Then he disappeared.

But Detective Angie Pallorino hasn’t forgotten the violent rapist who left a distinctive calling card—crosses etched into the flesh of his victims’ foreheads. When a comatose Jane Doe is found in a local cemetery, sexually assaulted, mutilated, and nearly drowned, Angie is struck by the eerie similarities to her earlier unsolved rapes. Could he be back?

Then the body of a drowned young woman, also bearing the marks of the serial rapist, floats up in the Gorge, and the hunt for a predator becomes a hunt for a killer. Assigned to the joint investigative task force, Angie is more than ready to prove that she has what it takes to break into the all-male homicide division. But her private life collides with her professional ambitions when she’s introduced to her temporary partner, James Maddocks—a man she’d met just the night before in an intense, anonymous encounter.

Together, Angie and Maddocks agree to put that night behind them. But as their search for the killer intensifies, so does their mutual desire. And Angie’s forays into the mind of a monster shake loose some unsettling secrets about her own past.

How can she fight for the truth when it turns out her whole life is a lie?
