Description

“This cat-and-mouse thriller will give your goosebumps chills.” —Tierney Bricker, E! News

One of the Bestselling Books of the Year

New York TimesWall Street JournalUSA Today • Bookshop.org • Amazon • Barnes & Noble  

Lurking in the Louisiana bayou, a methodical serial killer is hard at work completing his most harrowing crime yet. But forensic pathologist Dr. Wren Muller is the best there is. Armed with an encyclopedic knowledge of historical crimes, and years of experience working in the Medical Examiner’s office, she’s never encountered a case she couldn’t solve. Until now.    

Case after case is piling up on Wren’s examination table, and soon she is sucked into an all-consuming competition with a brutal murderer getting more brazen by the day. An addictive read with straight-from-the-morgue details only an autopsy technician could provide, The Butcher and the Wren promises to ensnare all who enter.
