Dead Game

Emily Stone Series #2 / 4

Dead Game (Emily Stone Series #2) by Jennifer Chase
Unrated

All of the EMILY STONE THRILLERS are Stand-Alone Books:
AWARD WINNER for Thriller at Readers Favorite

In her independent efforts to catch child killers, Emily Stone discovers the evidence that the cops can’t — or won’t — uncover. Now, this covert investigator is back on the hunt for the world’s most sick and twisted murderers. But even with help from ex-police detective Rick Lopez, this time she’s facing her most dangerous opponent yet.

The headlines in the San Jose Mercury News blare updates on a serial killer who seems able to slaughter with impunity. Men, women — it doesn’t matter; the victims serve only to satisfy a perverted need to kill. The killer watches the moment of death on multiple computer screens, over and over again. The only connection is that they’re all devotees of the latest video-game craze — a sophisticated brain-puzzler called EagleEye.

When the killer goes after Lopez’s law-enforcement mentor, Lopez and Stone decide to give the cops a little extra, unsolicited help. What follows takes them deep inside a shocking high-tech world, a kind of social-networking community for serial killers. But when they start getting too close to the truth, all hell’s going to break loose. Now, Stone and Lopez become the killer’s next target as Stone must make a difficult decision to leave the ones she loves in an all-or-nothing effort for survival. Can they stay alive long enough to blow the whistle on this unlikely perpetrator?

Jennifer Chase

Jennifer Chase is a writer whose keen insight into criminal psychology and her own experiences with crime and law enforcement shape every page she writes. With a background in police forensics and criminology, she doesn’t just tell stories—she immerses her readers in the chilling intricacies of human behavior and the darkness lurking beneath the surface.

Born and raised in California, Jennifer’s journey into the world of crime fiction began with her personal experiences and academic studies. After earning a degree in police forensics and a master’s in criminology, she felt a deep calling to merge her professional knowledge with her passion for storytelling. The result? A series of captivating crime thrillers that not only entertain but also provoke thought about the human condition.

Her debut novel, Compulsion, introduces readers to Emily Stone, a vigilante detective on a relentless pursuit of justice for victims who cannot speak for themselves. The series has garnered praise for its realistic portrayal of criminal minds and earned Jennifer multiple readers' choice awards. It’s clear that her work resonates with fans of taut psychological suspense and dark, intricate crime dramas.

But Jennifer’s talents extend beyond the world of writing. She has authored a non-fiction book, How to Write a Screenplay, and provides consulting services to fellow authors looking to navigate the complexities of publishing. She’s also been sought out for her expertise in criminology, offering insight into serial crimes and criminal profiling.

When she's not delving into the minds of her fictional killers or helping others craft their stories, Jennifer enjoys outdoor adventures, hiking, and photography with her husband, two dogs, and two cats. These passions, much like her writing, reflect a love of both the quiet moments and the deep, often shadowed mysteries of life.

In Jennifer’s world, crime isn’t just a plot device—it’s a fascinating puzzle that she dissects with an expert’s eye. Her stories are dark, gripping, and emotionally charged, weaving together her knowledge, passion, and experiences into tales that linger long after the last page is turned.
