SOME SINS CAN'T BE FORGIVEN

The police label them "victims," but she only sees them as depraved sinners. With each death, she rids the world of another monster. but not before offering them a chance to repent, atoning with their agony for the evil they committed.

SOME WRONGS CAN'T BE FORGOTTEN

Delilah Swift is on a career and personal high—recently promoted to detective in Stephen Kill, Delaware, and becoming involved with the chief of police, Snowden Calloway. But happiness turns to dread when bodies surface in a local pond—all dead long before they reached the water. Delilah knows the hallmarks of serial murders, and each gruesome discovery points to a twisted psychopath growing bolder and more brutal.

SOME CRIMES DESERVE NO MERCY

In this town full of secrets, a cold—blooded killer is acting as judge and executioner. Anonymous notes—harmless at first, then increasingly sinister—appear in Delilah's mailbox. But the closer Delilah gets to the truth, the higher the stakes. Because Delilah has a secret of her own. and it could be the death of her.

She looked into the dead face of the man she'd dined with the night before.

Standing over the body of a Supreme Court nominee, Lieutenant Sam Holland is hip-deep in another high-profile murder case. The fact that she was one of the last people to see Julian Sinclair alive just complicates things even more. On the plus side, her relationship with Senator Nick Cappuano is heating up—but it's also attracting a lot of unwanted media attention and blinding flash bulbs.

The pressure is on for Sam to find Sinclair's killer, but a new lead in her father's unsolved shooting puts her in unexpected danger. When long-buried secrets threaten to derail her relationship with Nick, Sam realizes that while justice can be blind, mixing romance with politics has the potential to be fatal...
