Dead by Monday (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798886798937)

With powerful agencies closing in by the hour, one small mistake can prove fatal.

College student Kathryn Benton comes home one night to discover her parents have been brutally murdered. Porch camera video reveals the killer's identities-two neighborhood troublemakers with a taste for crystal meth. Consumed with grief and blinded by vengeance, she tracks them down and kills them. With no thoughts to avoid the obvious consequences, she is quickly arrested and awaits trial-likely facing a death sentence.

Seeing an opportunity, a ruthless politician capitalizes on Kathryn's misfortune. She is coerced into killing an innocent man in exchange for her freedom. A man she has been convinced is a terrorist. However, for the politician's plan to succeed, Kathryn must be killed before she can tell the truth.

When unexpected circumstances allow Kathryn to escape, she has four days to expose the plot, while evading authorities working hard to capture her. To guarantee success, hired mercenaries are sent to ensure she is DEAD BY MONDAY.
