crimedetectiveinvestigationmurderpolice
The Boslone Institute for Mental Health and Wellness houses the children of some of the most influential people in the world. Boasting of its seclusion and privacy factors on the little known and remote island of Boslone, the hospital is considered to be the best place to be for troubled kids. 
Until two nearly identical girls turn up dead less than two weeks apart. 
With both media and actual storms approaching, the understaffed and unqualified detectives of the island's tiny (and less than ethical) police station soon find themselves drawn into a case they can't solve on their own. As the media closes in and the island prepares for a storm of its own, they soon realize that what appear to be serial murders may be more than they ever imagined. 

Thank you to Aleks for the cover, I think she did an awesome job.

Women are turning up dead in the rural outskirts of Virginia, killed in grotesque ways, and when the FBI is called in, they are stumped. A serial killer is out there, his frequency increasing, and they know there is only one agent good enough to crack this case: Special Agent Riley Paige. Riley is on paid leave herself, recovering from her encounter with her last serial killer, and, fragile as she is, the FBI is reluctant to tap her brilliant mind. Yet Riley, needing to battle her own demons, comes on board, and her hunt leads her through the disturbing subculture of doll collectors, into the homes of broken families, and into the darkest canals of the killer's mind. As Riley peels back the layers, she realizes she is up against a killer more twisted than she could have imagined. In a frantic race against time, she finds herself pushed to her limit, her job on the line, her own family in danger, and her fragile psyche collapsing. Yet once Riley Paige takes on a case, she will not quit. It obsesses her, leading her to the darkest corners of her own mind, blurring the lines between hunter and hunted. After a series of unexpected twists, her instincts lead her to a shocking climax that even Riley could not have imagined. A dark psychological thriller with heart-pounding suspense, ONCE GONE marks the debut of a riveting new series-and a beloved new character-that will leave you turning pages late into the night.
