Highest Rank: #1 in Mystery/Thriller (Completed + EDITING) People throw rocks at things that shine. Maybe its a good thing that they do. They have learnt their lesson, with anything that glows like that. But fate has its ways. If you deserve the Necklace, It comes for you. When Damon comes back after an failed attempt by the girls to kill him, he wasn't about to thank his stars for making it out alive and live in fear. No. He was going to plan his moves, and make them pay for their sins. And he'd make sure they suffered his fate, but made it to the end. And he seemed to have accomplished it, when he had finished two of his victims. But when it came to the third girl, she was nowhere to be found. On his scavenger hunt to find her, he did. Or someone who looked like her. Exactly like her. And yet, not at all. Her records were in place, and so were the ones of the other girl. Who was real? Who was to be killed? No one said it was easy, But someone did say, Beauty maybe dangerous, But intelligence is lethal.

The action flows like a brisk mountain stream interspersed with rapids, holding suspense to last page."- Kirkus Review ======================= Grace has lived in the Smoky Mountains all her life, patrolling with her forest ranger father who taught her about wildlife, tracking, and wilderness survival. When her dad goes missing on a routine patrol, Grace refuses to believe he's dead and fights the town authorities, tribal officials, and nature to find him. One day, while out tracking clues, Grace is rescued from danger by Mo, a hot guy with an intoxicating accent and a secret. As her feelings between him and her ex-boyfriend get muddled, Grace travels deep into the wilderness to escape and find her father. Along the way, Grace learns terrible secrets that sever relationships and lives. Soon she's enmeshed in a web of conspiracy, deception, and murder. And it's going to take a lot more than a compass and a motorcycle (named Lucifer) for this kick-butting heroine to save everything she loves.
