About this ebook
Dead Ringer is the latest crime novel from Mary Burton, America's Queen of Crime.
SOME NIGHTMARES
Beside each body, the killer leaves a simple charm bearing a woman's name. The victims are strangers to each other, but they have been chosen with the utmost care. Each bears a striking resemblance to Kendall Shaw, a local TV presenter, and each is brutally strangled by a madman whose obsession will never end...
DON'T FADE
In front of the cameras, Kendall is the picture of stylish confidence. But at night she's haunted by disturbing nightmares that feel like fragmented memories of a childhood she can't remember. Despite warnings from Detective Jacob Warwick, Kendall can't stop investigating the recent string of murders. She knows she holds the key to catching an obsessed psychopath - if he doesn't get to her first...
WITH DAYLIGHT
The deeper Kendall and Jacob dig into the victims' backgrounds, the more terrifying the discoveries. From the shadows of the past, a legacy of evil has resurfaced. Every murder, every moment has been leading to Kendall. And this time, nothing will stop the killer making her his final victim...
Fans of Tess Gerritsen, Kathy Reichs, and Karin Slaughter will love Mary Burton's Dead Ringer. Much like The Seventh Victim and Before She Dies, Dead Ringer will have its readers in horrified suspense.
Praise for Mary Burton:
'A twisted tale . . . I couldn't put it down!' Lisa Jackson
'Stieg Larsson fans will find a lot to like in Burton's taut, well-paced novel' Publishers Weekly

I'm a very picky when it comes to books however I found this book really good and worth reading. if you like mysteries I do advise you to read this book. It is a hard book to follow but it does give you moments to think for yourself what the story is. The ending is really amazing. had to read it like 5 times. honestly think thus is a great book. READ IT!
