Expecting to Die - Alvarez & Pescoli Novel by Lisa Jackson Paperback

Book Synopsis

In Grizzly Falls, Montana, the woods are lovely, dark, and deep--and perfectly deadly--in this gripping, #1 Publishers Weekly bestselling thriller featuring Detectives Selena Alvarez and Regan Pescoli.

Some places earn their bad reputation through tall tales or chance. Grizzly Falls is different. Here, killers aren't just the stuff of legends and campfire lore. Someone is in the night-time shadows, watching the local teens play around in the moonlit woods. Waiting to take away a life . . .

Detective Regan Pescoli is counting the days until her maternity leave. Exhausted and emotional, the last thing she needs is another suspected serial killer. Especially when her daughter, Bianca, is swept up in the media storm. When a reality show arrives in town, the chaos only makes it harder for Pescoli and her partner, Selena Alvarez, to distinguish rumor from truth.

Another body is found and another. And as the nightmare strikes closer to home, Pescoli races to find the terror lingering in the darkness, where there are too many places to hide and countless places to die.
