The Difference between a Sociopath and a Psychopath is a Very Fine Line

At the tender age of nineteen, Special Agent Samantha Stevens's life was forever altered when she was forced to endure the unspeakable. But that was ten years ago. Now, she lives an uncomplicated life in Washington, D.C., void of any commitment or ties as she pours over unsolved cases and clears them with unparalleled accuracy.

Unfamiliar Partners Make for Strange Bedfellows

Handsome Special Agent Nicholas McLeroy and his four-legged partner, Officer Murphy, are from the Seattle office of the FBI. He has stumbled upon a disturbing pattern that involves women disappearing from the Alaskan territory without a trace. So, he does the only thing he can do: request the help of a profiler whom he's only heard about in the professional circle as the savant of profilers. He's told she can read people and situations like no other but that working with her complex personality can be quite challenging.

Learning to Trust Again

The stakes are high, and it doesn't take Sam long to figure out that she is chasing the man who has haunted her nightmares for a decade. Sam decides to trust again by revealing her secret to her new partner. But is it too little too late to save her from another encounter with the madman dubbed "The Magician Killer?" After all, she was the one that got away.
