"The most engaging pair of detectives I've seen in a long while." -David Morrell SOME SECRETS WILL NOT DIE For three agonizing decades, seasoned manhunter Jacob Rein has been consumed by one case-a missing girl never found and two cops dead, one murdered, the other a suicide. Rein's protégé, Detective Carrie Santero, shares an equal fascination with the twisted patterns of murder. But when the discovery of a small human foot unearthed in the Pennsylvania woods leads her to a decades-old cold case, she is not prepared for the secrets she will unravel-and their connection to her mentor's dark and buried past . . . Praise for Berard Schaffer's The Thief of All Light "Tense, fast, and excellent-I loved this book." -Lee Child "Schaffer writes about cops with the assurance of a seasoned police veteran." -Lisa Scottoline "Schaffer presents a thriller that is both gruesome in content and honest in its portrayal of police procedures." -Booklist "Schaffer is the real deal. His writing will knock you out." -J.A. Konrath

In this brilliantly chilling follow-up to The Thief of All Light, veteran police officer Bernard Schaffer digs deep into the past-and the haunted psyches of the detectives who search for truth . . . at any cost. "There's a thousand scavengers in these woods."Before being promoted to detective, Carrie Santero was given a rare glimpse into the mind of a killer. Through her mentor, Jacob Rein-a seasoned manhunter whose gift for plumbing the depths of madness nearly drove him over the brink-she was able to help capture one of the most depraved serial killers in the country. Now, the discovery of a small human foot buried in the Pennsylvania woods will lead her to a decades-old cold case-and the darkest secrets of her mentor's youth."Nobody trusts an animal that tries to eat its own kind."Thirty years ago, a young girl went missing. A police officer was murdered. Another committed suicide. The lives of everyone involved would never be the same. For three agonizing decades, Jacob Rein has yearned for the truth. But when Detective Carrie Santero begins digging up new evidence, she discovers some answers come with shattering consequences.
