    Cree Thunderboy wants nothing less than to be the next great blues man. But, playing to tiny audiences in shabby rooms like Shelly’s Crab Shack, his career is stalled. Then at the race track he meets Win Hardy, a seemingly charming rogue who spots Cree’s knack for picking winning horses. He offers to record his first CD and send him on tour, as long as Cree can keep coming up with the hot tips at the track. 
    Things are looking good for Cree until he discovers Win’s connections to the mob and his violent response to anything that doesn’t go his way. And when things inevitably go bad, Cree discovers that in life and in gambling there is never really the next sure thing.

    Achievement unlocked. One wrong move, and it’s game over. 
    Private detective Winter Black finally knows the identity of the puppeteer behind the recent string of murders she’s been entangled in investigating—the same man who’s been stalking and tormenting her for weeks. But when he leaves recent photographs he took of her and Noah, her husband’s eyes scratched out, his vendetta becomes frighteningly real. And terrifyingly personal. 
    Because Noah is missing. 
    The nightmare becomes disturbingly real when Noah’s wedding band is placed on Winter’s doorstep, accompanied by a taunting note written in cryptic, video game jargon. The instructions? A deadly scavenger hunt, with Noah’s life hanging in the balance. Refusing to play isn’t an option. 
    Her mission: find her husband before it’s too late. 
    As Winter dives headfirst into the puppeteer’s sinister game, other unwilling players emerge, their fates as uncertain as Noah’s. Every clue leads her deeper into a labyrinth of danger, each wrong move tightening the noose around the man she loves. The stakes couldn’t be higher: solve the puzzle or lose Noah forever. 
    The mystery and suspense continue with Winter’s Maze, the eighth book in the Winter Black Season Two series. The game is far from over. In fact, it’s only just begun.
