The Botanist (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781393899563)

Alex knows one thing for sure: Something creepy happened on that abandoned stretch of desert highway.

When Alex Thompson is pulled over by a squad car in the middle of nowhere, the police officer acts downright bizarre. She's positive something's not right about the whole situation.

Years later, a mass grave is discovered in that same area, and she knows she came close to being one of the victims. So why did the killer let her go?

Cody Oliver is a small-town detective. His department can't handle a case this huge. When a mysterious woman, Alex, appears from the past, it stirs something in him. Could a chance encounter a million years ago have been that important? Could a short, random meeting he'd dismissed as soon as it ended be the key to stopping a serial killer?

If Cody and Alex can't find the killer's laid, discover his connection to Alex, and bring him to justice, the desert will continue to fill up with bodies.
