Love hurts. Someone always dies.

A killer the press calls "Cupid" is staging murders as twisted romances. Every victim is found with a single arrow and a heart that isn't their own. The clock is running, and the next target may be closer to the investigation than anyone wants to admit.

A Signature That Bleeds

Each crime scene is a love letter written in evidence — meticulous, personal, and impossible to forget.

Two Detectives, One Clock

Moss Stone's instinct and Anya Roberts's precision are all that stand between the city and the next heart.

Nobody Is Safe

The deeper they dig, the more the case feels designed — for them. A thriller that refuses to let go.

Meet the Detectives

Detective Moss Stone

Moss Stone

Twenty years on the force, and I've never seen love look this much like murder.

Haunted by the cases he couldn't close, Moss reads crime scenes like confessions. The Cupid killings feel personal — and that terrifies him.

Detective Anya Roberts

Anya Roberts

Patterns don't lie. People do. This killer is telling us everything.

Sharp, relentless, and impossible to rattle, Anya sees the design behind the carnage. But the closer she gets, the more the killer seems to know her.
