The killer isn’t just close. He answers the door when she knocks. In the quiet college town of Corvallis, Oregon, a young woman has vanished without a trace. Jane Ashcroft came here for a clean slate—new town, new clients, no complications. But when she learns that R has a personal stake in finding the killer, she’s thrust into a nightmare that refuses to let her go. Every house she visits carries whispers of danger: a client too secretive, an ominous note left waiting at the door, eyes watching from the trees. The deeper she looks, the more twisted the shadows become.

At the Loomis Estate, every secret has its price. Jane Ashcroft is starting over in Old Saybrook, Connecticut—new town, new job, same rules: stay quiet, stay useful, stay unnoticed. Her newest client, the Loomis family, resides in a vast estate along the coast, and nothing about them feels ordinary. The matriarch is elegant and exacting. The staff, formal and watchful. And then there’s Graham—the disarming grandson with a sailor’s charm and a past Jane can’t quite decode. She knows better than to get involved. But the pull is real.

When Lady Sophia Parsons reads the notice in the window of the haberdashery at Devon’s Mill, she has no choice other than to answer the summons. She is expected. Indeed, Lord Albion Rayment will have no other, for Sophia’s family is deeply in his debt, and he has loved her from afar for years. But Lord Albion is no longer merely the suitor her father turned away.

For Emma Jo and Buddy, for Peter and Cassidy, only love can temper the agony of their discipline. Only friendship can give them the strength to deliver a little justice of their own. As for the upperclassmen Sierra and Kevin—the conspirators who laid the trap that ensnared them in the Dare Dungeon—Nurse Reyes-Garcia and the Punishment Wardens of Huntington Regional Detention Center have a special plan, guaranteed to put them in their proper place and to show the world that all offenders are equal under law.

At Chesapeake Bay University, tomorrow is Hell Day. When freshman pledges Cassidy, Peter, Emma Jo, and Buddy are offered a way out of the mysterious initiation, little do they know they’re being played. The “dare” they must complete is a prank. They are meant to be caught—and to be found guilty, in court, of crimes for which there is only one possible sentence. Nurse Reyes-Garcia knows just what to do with misbehaving college kids. Their punishments will be carried out on live television. For two days, they’ll face their deepest, most intimate, and secret fears.

Robbie McNeal is a young man to be envied. A senator’s son, raised in wealth and privilege, he’s got everything - but all he really wants is the courage to ask out the girl in his government class.
