Riley Paige Mystery (German)

Frauen werden im ländlichen Virginia tot aufgefunden – alle auf groteskte Weise getötet – und als das FBI den Fall übernimmt sind sie ratlos. Ein Serienmörder ist unterwegs, die Abstände zwischen den Morden werden immer kürzer und sie wissen, dass nur ein Agent gut genug ist um den Fall zu lösen: Spezialagentin Riley Paige. Riley ist beurlaubt, um sich von ihrer Begegnung mit dem letzten Serienmörder zu erholen, und so zerbrechlich wie sie ist, widerstrebt es dem FBI ihren brillianten Kopf zu nutzen. Trotzdem nimmt Riley, die sich ihren eigenen Dämonen entgegenstellen muss, den Fall an und ihre Suche führt sie durch die verstörende Subkultur von Puppensammlern, in die Häuser von zerbrochenen Familien, und in die dunkelsten Ecken des Verstandes eines Mörders. Während Riley sich Schicht für Schicht durch den Fall arbeitet wird ihr bewusst, dass sie es mit einem Killer zu tun hat, der verdrehter ist als sie es sich hätte vorstellen können. In einem wilden Wettlauf mit der Zeit wird Riley bis an ihr Limit gebracht – ihr Job steht auf dem Spiel, ihre eigene Familie ist in Gefahr und ihre zerbrechliche Psyche kurz vor einem Kollaps. Aber sobald Riley Paige einen Fall annimmt gibt sie nicht auf, bis er gelöst ist. Er vereinnahmt sie, führt sie in die dunkelsten Ecken ihres eigenen Verstandes, verwischt die Grenze zwischen Jäger und Gejagtem. Nach einer Reihe von unerwarteten Wendungen führen ihre Instinkte sie zu einem schockierenden Finale, das alle überrascht. VERSCHWUNDEN, ein düsterer Psychothriller mit Spannung die für Herzklopfen sorgt, ist das Debüt einer fesselnden neuen Serie – und einer faszinierenden neuen Heldin – die uns bis spät in die Nacht wachhält.

Im Hinterland von New York werden Frauen ermordet und ihre Leichen in Ketten gewickelt aufgehängt. Als das FBI übernimmt, ist klar, dass es für so einen bizarren Fall mit kaum vorhandenen Hinweisen, nur eine Agentin gibt: Spezialagentin Riley Paige. Riley, von ihrem letzten Fall ins Schwanken gebracht, will nur ungern einen neuen Fall annehmen, da sie immer noch davon überzeugt ist, dass ein totgeglaubter Serienmörder sie jagt. Sie weiß aber, dass ihre einzigartige Fähigkeit sich in den Verstand eines Serienmörders hineinzuversetzen und ihre unnachgiebigen Ermittlungen notwendig sind, um den Fall sie lösen. Sie kann nicht ablehnen - auch wenn es sie über ihre Grenzen bringt. Rileys Suche bringt sie tief in den wahnsinnigen Verstand des Mörders, sie führt sie durch Waisenhäuser, Psychiatrische Anstalten und Gefängnisse, in dem Versuch die Tiefen seiner Psychose zu verstehen. Ihr wird klar, dass sie es mit einem wahren Psychopathen zu tun hat und die Zeit knapp wird, bevor er wieder zuschlägt. Mit einem Job, der auf dem Spiel steht, ihrer eigenen Familie, die zum Ziel wird, und ihrer zerbrechlichen Psyche, die vor dem Zusammenbruch steht, könnte es alles zu viel für sie werden - und zu spät sein.
