The Evangeline Series: Collide (Book 2)

She had him.

Charles: the man responsible for the missing hikers.

He even confirmed that he’d killed them. She had Charles. And Ben let him go.

Her mission was clear: Find the John Doe responsible for the missing hikers and make an arrest. She had pictured coming back into the office in triumph, excited to prepare her report and close this case. She imagined testifying at the trial and hearing the gavel come down on his life sentence as the hikers’ family members cried and hugged each other in relief, having answers and justice at last. But that would never happen. And Ben was responsible.

But she soon learns that what Ben did was more complex than the simple betrayal she’d labeled it.

After learning that there was more to the missing hikers than she ever expected, Sam finds herself thrust into the center of the apprehension of a notorious criminal: The Crocodile.

Ben is impressed by Sam’s determination and grit and makes her his partner on The Crocodile case. But Sam’s Lone Wolf tendencies are challenged as she learns to balance her stubborn self-reliance with the new reality of sharing a case with Ben, her boss-turned-partner.

Through all this, Sam is elated that Isaac has returned, but things soon become complicated as Sam is horrified to realize that she’s developing feelings for Ben.

Sam and Ben work together to pursue new leads to track down The Crocodile, an endeavor that brings them face-to-face with the criminal’s dangerous appetite for chaos more than once.

Their new mission: Stop The Crocodile. And don’t die in the process. Can they do it?
