Reborn To Hunt My Killer

"Why?" The word came out as a whisper. "Why me?" The knife was sticking out of my stomach like it belonged there. Blood poured between my fingers as I pressed both hands against the wound. My legs gave out. The pavement was freezing against my face. The guy wiped his blade clean, then grabbed my ankles. He was dragging me toward the lake. "No!" I tried to kick, but my body wouldn't work right. "Please..." Tyler's gift bag was just within reach and I grabbed it, held on tight. Twenty-three years of never being enough. Of taking scraps and saying thank you. Then the water hit, and everything went black. *** Samantha Thompson died at twenty-three, clutching a birthday gift she'd never get to give. Murdered in a dark alley, her last thought was of wasted potential and a life unlived. But death wasn't the end—it was a second chance. Reborn at seventeen with memories intact, Samantha makes radically different choices. She fights for her West Point acceptance, becomes an FBI agent, and partners with mysterious Matthew Nolan to hunt serial killers. But as she grows from broken victim to formidable investigator, darker truths emerge about her parents' deaths and the people she trusts most. Will Samantha master her destiny this time, or will the same forces that destroyed her family claim her second life as well?
