- Used Book in Good Condition
The eagerly anticipated follow-up to the New York Times bestselling psychological thriller In the Woods

Six months after the events of In the Woods, Detective Cassie Maddox is still trying to recover. Sheâ€™s transferred out of the murder squad and started a relationship with Detective Sam Oâ€™Neill, but sheâ€™s too badly shaken to make a commitment to him or to her career. Then Sam calls her to the scene of his new case: a young woman found stabbed to death in a small town outside Dublin. The dead girlâ€™s ID says her name is Lexie Madisonâ€”the identity Cassie used years ago as an undercover detectiveâ€”and she looks exactly like Cassie.

With no leads, no suspects, and no clue to Lexieâ€™s real identity, Cassieâ€™s old undercover boss, Frank Mackey, spots the opportunity of a lifetime. They can say that the stab wound wasnâ€™t fatal and send Cassie undercover in her place to find out information that the police never would and to tempt the killer out of hiding. At first Cassie thinks the idea is crazy, but she is seduced by the prospect of working on a murder investigation again and by the idea of assuming the victimâ€™s identity as a graduate student with a cozy group of friends.

As she is drawn into Lexieâ€™s world, Cassie realizes that the girlâ€™s secrets run deeper than anyone imagined. Her friends are becoming suspicious, Sam has discovered a generations-old feud involving the old house the students live in, and Frank is starting to suspect that Cassieâ€™s growing emotional involvement could put the whole investigation at risk. Another gripping psychological thriller featuring the headstrong protagonist weâ€™ve come to love, from an author who has proven that she can deliver.
