Publisher's Synopsis
The collection isn't complete without her... The writer becomes the story when crime reporter Mia Hale is discovered on a beach in Jacksonville, Florida--bloodied and disoriented but alive. She remembers nothing, but her wounds bear the signature of a sadistic serial killer. After years lying dormant, the Collector has resumed his grim hobby of abducting women and taking gruesome souvenirs before dumping their bodies. Not one of his victims has ever escaped--and he wants Mia back more than he ever wanted any of the others. FBI agent Eric MacFarlane has pursued the Collector for a long time--the case runs deep in his veins, bordering on obsession--and now Mia holds the key. She'll risk everything to recover her memory and bring the madman to justice, and Eric swears to protect this fierce, fragile survivor. But the Collector will not be denied. In his mind he knows just how their story ends.
