Details

An FBI agent with an uncanny ability to sense danger must hunt down a serial killer through the frozen Colorado wilderness in Headlights, a tense and gripping thrill ride by bestselling author CJ Leede.

Special Agent Daniel Stansfield is ready for a change. Burnt out and defeated by the job, it's his last day with the FBI. But before he can turn in his badge, he's summoned back to Denver, the city he ran from four years ago, with a chilling message: it's happening again.

Seemingly innocent people are waking up on the side of the highway, with no memory of how they got there, wearing the skin of victims they've allegedly never met. And they each share one haunting detail: a strand of a stranger's hair is tied around their tongue.

Now Daniel is pulled back into the gruesome cycle, and every clue leads him deeper into the shadows of his own past. He will have to confront the ghosts of his traumatic childhood and face what's been hunting him all along—before he and the people he loves become the next victims.

    Absolutely Stunning

    I loved Headlights by CJ Leede when I read it so when I saw that Owl Crate did this special edition I knew I had to have it! Pictures do not do this book justice, it was even more beautiful in person. I also was pleasantly surprised by how affordable it was, I was prepared to pay a pretty penny for this special edition.
