A Deadly Influence

A forensic psychologist fights a mental war against two serial killers in this disturbing thriller from Mike Omer, Washington Post and Amazon Charts bestselling author of A Killer's Mind.

Meanwhile, a different murderer is on Zoe's mind. Rod Glover has been tormenting her since childhood, and his latest attack is a threatening photo of himself with Zoe's sister. As Glover's threats creep toward action, Zoe's torn between family and duty. Zoe must think fast to prevent another murder.
