Dall'autore di successo Blake Pierce, una nuova serie di gialli mozzafiato. Una donna viene trovata morta nei campi di granoturco del Nebraska, legata a un palo, vittima di un folle assassino. La polizia non ci mette molto a realizzare di avere a che fare con un serial killer - e che la sua furia omicida è appena iniziata. La detective Mackenzie White è giovane, determinata e più intelligente dei maschilisti di mezza età che lavorano con lei nella polizia locale. È quindi a malincuore che viene interpellata per risolvere il caso. Anche se detestano ammetterlo, i suoi colleghi poliziotti hanno bisogno della sua mente giovane e brillante, che li ha già aiutati in passato a risolvere casi per loro difficili. Eppure, stavolta l'enigma sembra impossibile anche per Mackenzie: né lei né la polizia locale hanno mai visto prima qualcosa del genere. Con il supporto dell'FBI, ha inizio una caccia all'uomo. Mackenzie, turbata da un oscuro passato, relazioni fallite e dall'innegabile attrazione che prova verso il nuovo agente dell'FBI, deve affrontare i propri demoni quando la caccia al killer la trascina nei luoghi più bui della sua mente. Immergendosi nella mente dell'assassino per tentare di comprendere la sua psicologia contorta, scopre che il male esiste davvero e che l'unica speranza è non rimanerne invischiata, mentre il mondo inizia a crollarle addosso. Dopo che altre donne vengono trovate morte, inizia una corsa contro il tempo. L'unica soluzione è scovare il killer prima che uccida ancora. Thriller-noir psicologico dalla suspence mozzafiato, PRIMA CHE UCCIDA è il primo libro di una nuova, avvincente serie-con un nuovo, irresistibile personaggio- che vi terrà incollati alle pagine fino a tarda notte.

Delle donne sono state assassinate a nord di New York, i loro corpi trovati misteriosamente appesi e incatenati. Quando viene richiesto l'intervento dell'FBI, data la bizzarra natura degli omicidi-e la mancanza di indizi-c'è soltanto un'agente a cui ci si possa rivolgere: L'Agente Speciale Riley Paige. Riley, ancora scioccata dal suo ultimo caso, è riluttante ad occuparsi di quest'ultimo, visto che è ancora convinta che un ex serial killer sia ancora a piede libero, perseguitandola. Ad ogni modo, lei sa che la sua capacità di penetrare nella mente di un serial killer e nella sua natura ossessiva è ciò che le occorrerà per risolvere questo caso, e proprio non può rifiutare-sebbene la spingerà al limite. La ricerca di Riley la porta nel profondo della mente illusa dell'assassino, in quanto la condurrà in orfanotrofi, ospedali, prigioni, tutto pur di comprendere le origini della sua psicosi. Realizzando di trovarsi a che fare con un vero psicopatico, è consapevole che non passerà molto tempo prima che colpisca ancora. Ma con il suo stesso lavoro esposto e la sua stessa famiglia un bersaglio, e con la sua fragile psiche che rischia di crollare, potrebbe essere fin troppo per lei-e troppo tardi.
