Heather Graham

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Heather Graham comes a new story in her Krewe of Hunters series... Angela Hawkins Crow awakens to find herself in total darkness. Despite her years as a Krewe agent, she is first seized with panic, but her life and her training kick in. She knows that she must stay calm and go back in her mind to find out how she got where she is...and where she might be. Meanwhile, an eerie phone call comes in at Krewe headquarters, warning them all that Angela has been kidnapped, describing her ordeal, and lamenting the fact that she can't be saved. But there is no such thing with the Krewe. In the dark and in the light, the fight is on. Angela determines that she might know what has happened to her, and she is prepared when her kidnapper can't resist the temptation to check in on her. By following his wife's expertise with research, Jackson discovers what just might be happening-and in the darkness of night and the silence of the graveyard, he'll risk everything to find the woman he loves. **Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it's an introduction to an author's world. And for fans, it's a bonus book in the author's series. We hope you'll enjoy each one as much as we do.**
