Detective Kari Blackhorse faces a chilling enigma as athletes are mysteriously found dead in a desert that whispers old Navajo tales of “ghost sickness.” Tracing spectral footprints through scorching sands, she must decode the fusion of folklore and forensics to halt a phantom killer’s stride.

CLOSE TO DEATH is the eleventh book in a long-anticipated new series by #1 bestseller and USA Today bestselling author Blake Pierce, whose bestseller Once Gone (a free download) has received over 7,000 five star ratings and reviews. The series begins with CLOSE BY (book #1).

The Kari Blackhorse series will keep you riveted, turning pages late into the night in this fast paced mystery series. Packed with shocking twists and featuring a brave and brilliant heroine, it offers a fresh take on the mystery genre—and a thriller that will keep you wanting more.
Fans of Lisa Regan, Robert Dugoni, and Kendra Elliot are sure to fall in love.
