Deadly Envy

A return to power. A town gripped by fear. A detective desperate for answers.

When a child is abducted, Detective Harper Scranton and FBI Special Agent Liam McConnell are thrown into their most harrowing case yet. The Seven Deadly Sins Killer has always targeted adults—but why take an innocent child? And why frame another child as the culprit?

As the madman’s mind spirals out of control, he finds a way to reassert his dominance, striking terror into the town and reminding Harper and Liam that he’s still in command. With his ruthless assassin by his side, his games grow deadlier, his demands more twisted.

Every step closer brings Harper and Liam face-to-face with a shocking truth: the killer’s obsession isn’t just about sin—it’s about vengeance. A dark crime committed by their grandfathers has ignited a plan for retribution that won’t end until the final sin is claimed.

As their growing relationship is pushed aside by duty, Harper and Liam must confront their shared legacy, outthink a spiraling madman, and protect the innocent before the seventh sin demands blood.

Perfect for fans of FBI thrillers, serial killer suspense, detective crime fiction, and dark romantic mysteries, A Return to Power raises the stakes to terrifying new heights.
