The Chase - A Novel (Paperback)

To the FBI it s a cold case. To Kariss Walker it s a hot idea that could either reshape or ruin her writing career. And it s a burning mission to revisit an event she can never forget. Five years ago, an unidentified little girl was found starved to death in the woods behind a Houston apartment complex. A TV news anchor at the time, Kariss reported on the terrifying case. Today, as a New York Times bestselling author, Kariss intends to turn the unsolved mystery into a suspense novel. Enlisting the help of FBI Special Agent Tigo Harris, Kariss succeeds in getting the case reopened. But the search for the dead girl s missing mother yields a discovery that plunges the partners into a witch s brew of danger. The old crime lives on in more ways than either of them could ever imagine. Will Kariss s pursuit of her dream as a writer carry a deadly price tag? Drawing from a real-life cold case, bestselling novelist DiAnn Mills presents a taut collage of suspense, faith, and romance in The Chase."
