Lt. Kate Gazzara

Were they simply victims of a tragic accident, or was it something more sinister? In a small but exclusive subdivision of Chattanooga, a devastating house fire leaves a family of five in ruins. The blaze claimed two victims leaving behind a shattered community and a lot of unanswered questions. As Captain Kate Gazzara and her team of dedicated investigators delve into the case, they uncover shocking secrets about the family and their troubled past. With each twist and turn, the evidence points more and more towards foul play, and it becomes clear that someone wanted this family dead. But who are the two victims? Who are the three survivors, and where are they now? Charlotte is a gripping tale of murder and betrayal that will keep you up late into the night.

Kingsley Lynch fell to her death from a seven-story, downtown rooftop garden. Was it an accident, suicide, or was she pushed? The two detectives assigned to the case decided she jumped. Her husband, an influential city councilor disagrees, and six weeks later Kate Gazzara is assigned to reinvestigate. Two days later, Clarissa Madill falls from a ten-story balcony. Coincidence? Kate doesn't think so, but if not, what's the connection? As the body count rises, Kate reluctantly admits she has a serial killer on her hands, but finding that killer...with no leads and only a couple of minor suspects, it seems like an impossible task. Can she and Samson solve the puzzle before the killer gets around to her?

A puzzling death, two dead lawyers, and another close call for Kate. When prominent defense attorney Madison Lombardi drops dead on the street outside her office of a perceived heart attack, no one pays much attention ... Except for her husband. When a second attorney, her law partner, drops dead a week later in almost the exact same spot, more people begin to pay attention, including police chief Wesley Johnston. Homicide detective Kate Gazzara, much to her dismay, is assigned what appears to be little more than a case of coinciding medical events. However, appearances can be deceiving, and Kate remains unconvinced by the notion of mere coincidences. Thus begins an investigation that will take all of Kate's formidable skills to solve and bring her within an inch of losing her life. Not once, but twice.

In 1982, ten-year-old Emma Jacobs disappeared while on her way home from school. Almost four decades later the case file lands on Kate Gazzara's desk. A cursory review of the case quickly turns into a personal nightmare for her team member, Detective Anne Robar. Haunted by vague, shadowy memories, of her own abduction more than thirty-seven years ago, Anne becomes consumed by them. Kate and Anne are determined to bring closure to Emma's family and to confront Anne's own demons. But with pressure mounting from her superiors to drop the case and threats surfacing from unknown quarters, Kate, Anne, and the team must navigate a labyrinth of deceit, manipulation, and Anne's personal trauma. As they get closer to the truth, they realize that by uncovering Emma Jacobs' fate they might also unravel the mystery of Anne's own past-a truth that someone is willing to kill to keep buried.

Some secrets are better left buried. And someone's willing to kill to keep it that way. Lt. Kate Gazzara didn't get where she was by playing it safe. So when the limestone walls in Forrest's Cave give up their grim secret-a skeleton entombed for over fifty years-she assigns her brilliant loose cannon to the case. Detective Jack North's methods may be unconventional, but his closure rate is unmatched. Now, she just has to hope his talent for solving impossible cases outweighs his talent for trouble. But Jack never expected to unravel a conspiracy that killed his grandparents decades ago. When Detective North teams up with Dr. Amelia Croft, their investigation reveals a chilling truth: Lookout Mountain's caves are more than just a tourist attraction. They're a carefully chosen tomb for countless victims, guarded by someone who won't hesitate to kill again to keep their deadly secret. As more bodies surface, North and Croft find themselves navigating a labyrinth of corruption that spans generations. His grandfather, Detective Lieutenant Charlie North, dug too deep and they killed him. His grandmother, Lab Tech Martha North, saw too much and they killed her too. Now those same forces want him silenced, and they'll stop at nothing to keep their secrets.

A sealed room. A murdered psychiatrist. A decades-old secret someone will kill to protect. When Dr. Marcus Holloway is found dead inside his locked office-surrounded by disturbing patient files from a long-buried experimental program-Captain Kate Gazzara is pulled into her most dangerous investigation yet. Someone is hunting down the survivors of a secret psychiatric trial gone horribly wrong. Armed with surgical precision, digital surveillance, and a motive rooted in trauma, the killer is always one step ahead. The files name 47 patients. Now they're dying one by one. Who is Subject 23? And how do you catch a killer who already knows you're coming? Title Info. 1. TheLocked Room 2. First Impressions 3._TheDoctors Secrets 4. Family Dysfunction 5. Following The Money 6.
