Books Included in This Collection:
The Crucifix Killer
When the body of a young woman is discovered, Robert Hunter is thrust into a nightmare case. The victim suffered a terrible death, and on the nape of her neck has been carved a strange double-cross—the signature of a psychopath known as the Crucifix Killer. But that seems impossible, because the killer was said to be executed two years earlier. Carter delivers a taut, meticulously plotted opening that threads clinical detail with nerve-wracking suspense, establishing Hunter’s unyielding drive to uncover truth beneath the surface glare of the crime scene.

The Executioner
Inside a Los Angeles church, the blood-soaked body of a priest lies in wait. The forensic team discovers that, on the victim’s chest, the figure 3 has been scrawled in blood. At first glance a ritualistic killing, the case quickly expands as more bodies surface and the motive deepens. Hunter’s investigation threads through religious symbolism, personal vendettas, and a killer who seems to choreograph death with chilling precision, testing Hunter’s resolve and pushing him to confront darker truths about power, faith, and vengeance.

The Night Stalker
An unidentified female lies on a slab in an abandoned butcher’s shop, devoid of marks but with lips stitched shut. The autopsy reveals a horror that refuses to stay hidden, forcing Hunter to interpret a pattern where silence itself becomes a weapon. The atmosphere tightens with each reveal, blending forensic exactness with psychological menace as Hunter hunts a methodical predator who leaves behind a chilling reminder: some killers prefer to vanish in plain sight.

The Death Sculptor
“Good job you didn’t turn on the lights…” A student nurse confronts a brutal murder: prosecutor Derek Nicholson, terminally ill, lies murdered in his own bed. The killer’s calling card hints at a brutal vanity, a game played with life, fear, and control. Hunter follows a trail that blends personal risk with professional duty, revealing a killer who respects no boundary and a city that trembles at the echoes of violence in the night.

One by One
Hunter receives a call directing him to a specific web address. He and the LAPD—and even the FBI—throw every resource at tracing the transmission, only to discover a killer who has anticipated every move and left nothing to chance. This finale amps the tension to a fever pitch, weaving digital cunning with real-world peril as Hunter races against time to prevent the next turn in a deadly, meticulously crafted show.
