Tauchen Sie ein in eine düstere Psychothriller-Reihe, die sich um einen sadistischen Serienmörder namens 'Der Gärtner' dreht. Begleiten Sie FBI-Agenten bei ihren Ermittlungen zu den Entführungen junger Frauen, die auf einem abgelegenen Anwesen gefangen gehalten und mit Schmetterlingstattoos markiert werden. Diese fesselnden Erzählungen enthüllen die verdrehten Methoden des Mörders und das tiefe Trauma der Überlebenden und legen dunkle Geheimnisse offen, die sich hinter prächtigen Gärten verbergen.
In einem geheimen Garten leben junge Frauen, die entführt und tätowiert wurden. FBI-Agenten Victor und Brandon stehen vor einem verstörenden Fall, den nur Überlebende Maya lösen kann. Doch je mehr sie enthüllt, desto rätselhafter wird sie. Ein Psychothriller, der die Nerven des Lesers strapaziert.
"Four months after the explosion at the Garden, a place where young women known as the Butterflies were kept captive, FBI agents Brandon Eddison, Victor Hanoverian, and Mercedes Ramirez are still entrenched in the aftermath, helping survivors in the process of adjusting to life on the outside. With winter coming to an end, the Butterflies have longer, warmer days of healing ahead. But for the agents, the impending thaw means one gruesome thing: a chilling guarantee that somewhere in the country, another young woman will turn up dead in a church with her throat slit and her body surrounded by flowers. Priya Sravasti's sister fell victim to the killer years ago. Now she and her mother move every few months, hoping for a new beginning. But when she ends up in the madman's crosshairs, the hunt takes on new urgency. Only with Priya's help can the killer be found--but will her desperate hope for closure compel her to put her very life on the line?"--Provided by publisher.
This FBI agent has come to expect almost anything--just not this... When Agent Mercedes Ramirez finds an abused young boy on her porch, covered in blood and clutching a teddy bear, she has no idea that this is just the beginning. He tells her a chilling tale: an angel killed his parents and then brought him here so Mercedes could keep him safe. His parents weren't just murdered. It was a slaughter--a rage kill like no one on the Crimes Against Children team had seen before. But they're going to see it again. An avenging angel is meting out savage justice, and she's far from through. One by one, more children arrive at Mercedes's door with the same horror story. Each one a traumatized survivor of an abusive home. Each one chafing at Mercedes's own scars from the past. And each one taking its toll on her life and career. Now, as the investigation draws her deeper into the dark, Mercedes is beginning to fear that if this case doesn't destroy her, her memories might.
