First Came the Drowning

Amateur assassin Erica Banks faced a choice. She had methodically worked her way through her list of victims for a decade; but now it appeared someone may have picked up her scent. Should she continue on her path of death, taking out the few remaining targets, or should she shift and protect herself?

Unlike her previous victims, her current prey lives in New Orleans, the city Erica has made home. While being on her own turf gives her advantages in stalking and killing, the stakes are higher than ever. If she slips up, will that expose her? Or worse, the man she’s realizing could be the one in her life?

In the past, Erica was compelled to kill by an all-consuming, almost physical rage. Now, as she weighs the risks, she feels the rage starting to grow. This local cyber-sleuth, Genny Clarke, the one who seems to be tracking her, she looked juicy. Maybe

Genny and her Code Crackers firm have been dragged into solving the series of horrific murders when one of the victims is the wife of her business partner, Rhonda Dickerman. Together, Genny and Rhonda don’t seem able to pull together the clues and find the killer until they come to a shocking realization. One of them might be next.

As the net begins to tighten around Erica, she faces the fatal choice: fight or flight. More than one life will be at stake whatever she chooses.
