All the while, the body count rises in his city. Two serial killers. Each threatening to change his life forever. One succeeds.

After selling his company for millions, Colby Walker takes his family — and his son's friend Jess — on vacation, wanting nothing more than to unwind in the sun and surf. But he spots the alarming signs in short order: Jess's downcast eyes, a familiar passivity, and angry red welts marching across the boy's bare back. Walker understands what they mean because he'd been that boy, many years ago.

He'd suffered in silence, too.

Can Walker stand by and let the torment continue? Does he trust the authorities — the same ones who had failed him in his youth — to take care of Jess?

Hell no.

With Jess in tow, Walker packs up the minivan and takes his family on the lam, keeping one step ahead of Jess's cruel father and unhinged ex-con aunt. When the stakes escalate and his headstrong actions put people's lives in jeopardy, Walker must finally conquer his past before he can save those he loves.

He can run no longer.

Dr. Watson, at the behest of Mycroft, is charged with cajoling Holmes away from Suffolk comfort to serve his country.

The hunt for the conspirators and the secrets they posses takes Holmes and Watson on a wild chase through the English countryside and eventually to the Western Front itself …

Determined to make a new start in her quaint hometown on the banks of the Mississippi, Brandy Borne never dreams she'll become the prime suspect in a murder case …

Moving back in with her eccentric, larger-than-life mother, Brandy Borne finds small-town Serenity anything but serene. It seems an unscrupulous antiques dealer has swindled Vivian out of the family's heirlooms. But when he is found run over in a country lane, Brandy becomes Murder Suspect Number One — with her mother coming in a very close second …

The list of other suspects is impressive — the victim's business seems to have been based on bilking seniors out of their possessions. And when the Borne "girls" uncover a few very unsavory Serenity secrets, they become targets for a murderer whose favorite hobby seems to be collecting victims.

Local law scares up a suspect in the victim's dog, Brad Pit Bull.

But Brandy and Mother see through the killer's clever canine masquerade. Their mission: unmask a murderer — before the witching hour comes, and he mauls again.

With just hours to go, Jack finds herself chasing the teenager alone and unarmed, ready to test her instincts. Bracco believes the teenager is there to detonate the bomb. Jack believes she can save the kid and find the bomb before the terrorists push the button.

It's only been a few days since Bernie and Libby started working together at A Little Taste of Heaven, and already they've got their hands full — baking cookies and slicing rare beef tenderloin to serve at a high school reunion.
