Dead Cold by Jennifer Chase

About Dead Cold by Jennifer Chase

Every Emily Stone Thriller is a stand-alone novel.

From the multi-award winning thriller series:

What happens when one California community has a disturbing spike in homicides? It catapults cops into a deadly game of murder. Frozen human body parts hideously displayed at the crime scenes offers a horrifying interpretation that only a sadistic serial killer could design—and execute.

On the hunt for a complex serial killer, vigilante detective Emily Stone must face her most daring case yet. Stone’s proven top-notch profiling skills and forensic expertise may not be enough this time.

Young and ambitious, Detective Danny Starr, catches the homicide cases and discovers that it will test everything he knows about police work and the criminal mind. Can he handle these escalating cases or will the police department have to call in reinforcements—the FBI.

Emily Stone’s covert team pushes with extreme urgency to unravel the grisly clues, while keeping their identities hidden from the police. With one last-ditch effort, Stone dangles someone she loves as bait to draw out the killer. She then forces the killer out of their comfort zone with her partner Rick Lopez, and with help from a longtime friend Jordan Smith. A revelation of the serial killer’s identity leaves the team with volatile emotions that could destroy them.

The killer continues to taunt and expertly manipulate the police, as well as Stone’s team, and as they run out of time—they leave behind everyone and everything—in Dead Cold.

A Tale of Two Times

About A Tale of Two Times:

According to the front-page photo in the (New York) Daily News, my father was “Murdered Gangland Style.” I was three years old.

The assassination was most likely ordered by a mob insurance broker in order to collect on a large life insurance policy that my father provided as collateral for a business loan. After my father’s death, my distraught mother began a downward spiral into substance abuse from which she never recovered. The insurance broker, later convicted of another killing while under witness protection, was never charged with my father’s murder.

Based on those events, I’ve written a time-travel novel, “A Tale of Two Times,” about how a middle-aged son battles to save his younger parents’ previously doomed lives.

In present-day Florida, Billy Volante leans against a large oak tree in his backyard, only to keep falling—through the tree into 1961, exactly fifty-six years into the past, into the same Gulf Coast resort town where he now resides and where his parents took winter vacations.

Billy and his free-spirited girlfriend, Carrie Anne, decide to pose as a married couple to warn his young father, Johnny Volante, of the looming 1964 murder. Seeking to build a friendship before revealing his identity, the older Billy takes his father on a fishing trip, only to stumble upon a vacationing mob attorney, Herman Goldman, who will order the future murder.

When Goldman meets Billy, all prior history is rebooted and Billy is forced to ask his father for help as the mob has more pressing ideas about who they want to eliminate first.

Will Johnny Volante believe Billy, a man more than twice his age, is his son and help him fight the mob?

In this rebooted history, if Billy saves his father’s life and prevents another murder, what becomes of his future and the future of the girl he loves? Will they even exist in 2017 if they change the past?

Will Goldman complicate things, even more, by eliminating the new target and Billy’s father to thwart all of Billy’s attempts to change the past for a better future?

Or will will someone or something show up to …

Obviously, there’s only one way to find out …

eMOTION: Forced Pair

About eMOTION: Forced Pair:

Marion Dent is a high-functioning sociopath, unafflicted by emotions, trained from a young age to become the perfect soldier to combat illegal emotional-tampering technology known as eTech. Relieved of his military duty, he has become a contractor for the highest bidder—his mental handicap making him the perfect weapon in a world where illegally controlling emotions means controlling economic power. Dent’s skills are put to the test when he’s contracted to steal a package—a young girl dubbed Fifth, who has a very unique talent which has the potential to render current eTech obsolete and usher in a new form of undetectable emotion-tampering.

Seemingly betrayed by the person who hired him, Dent flees with Fifth, where they find themselves in a tentative partnership, struggling not only to survive hitmen and assassins but also to understand each other. Dent races to figure out why he was betrayed as he comes to suspect the people behind Fifth’s secretive past may have ties to his own. For the first time in his life, Dent’s actions are clouded by emotions, and if he can figure out how and why Fifth makes him act irrationally, he may have a chance to save her from the same fate he suffered at a young age—being studied and manipulated into becoming an unwitting pawn as countries and corporations fight for economic dominion, with no remorse for those they harm or kill in order to obtain power.

A sociopath may just be the only hope for ensuring the emotional freedom of the world.
