A chilling Albuquerque serial killer thriller that fans of Michael Connelly and Karin Slaughter will love.
Nine girls. Nine trophies. One obsessed killer.
When another teenager vanishes in Albuquerque, Detective David Temeke is thrust into the most dangerous case of his career. The Duke City Police Department has seen brutal crimes before, but this serial killer is different—he stalks young victims across New Mexico, mutilates their bodies, and keeps their parts as trophies.
With one suspect already locked away, a new disappearance proves the nightmare isn’t over. Partnered with sharp new detective Malin Santiago, Temeke follows the trail into the remote forests of Cimarron State Park, where Norse legends and ritual sites hide dark secrets.
Time is running out. Can they stop the 9th Hour killer before he claims his final victim?
Perfect for fans searching for serial killer crime novels, Albuquerque thrillers, gritty police procedurals, and New Mexico detective mysteries.
