Book Synopsis

From New York Times bestselling author Brenda Novak comes Face Off, the next installment of Dr. Evelyn Talbot and her murderous home for psychopaths.

SHE VOWED NEVER TO BE A VICTIM AGAIN. BUT NOW A KILLER HAS HER IN HIS SIGHT. . .

Tortured and left for dead at sixteen, Evelyn Talbot turned her personal nightmare into her life's work--studying the disturbing psychopathy of some of the world's most vicious serial killers. Now a leading psychiatrist at Hanover House in a small Alaskan town, she tries to believe the past will never come back to haunt her--until a woman goes missing from a cabin nearby, and every clue points to the man who once brutalized her...

As her boyfriend, who is the area's only police, begins to investigate--and finds not one but two bodies--Evelyn can't forget that her would-be killer, Jasper Moore, was never caught. But there are no new faces in tiny Hilltop, no one who seems suspicious or potentially violent. In this twisted game of cat and mouse, Evelyn is certain of only one thing--Jasper must be hiding in plain sight. And if she can't find him before he comes for her, she won't be lucky enough to survive twice...

"Novak is a master of suspense."--RT Book Reviews
