Bad Scene: Volume 3

1978 San Francisco--a cult leader in Ecuador--one woman's struggle to reconnect with her lost daughter before it is too late

When PI and ex-con, Colleen Hayes, learns that a local neo-Nazi group is talking about shooting the mayor, she thinks it's just another rumor--until her source, a humble street newspaper vendor, winds up in SF General, beaten to a pulp.

To add to her grief, she discovers that her runaway daughter, Pamela, might have joined a shadowy religious group, building a church in South America near a volcano that is about to erupt. Death is the path to perfection according to the charismatic young preacher--and the date is fast approaching.

Colleen is desperate to find a way to stop her daughter from making the ultimate mistake before she--along with hundreds of others--lose their lives.

Perfect for fans of Harlan Coben's gritty noir suspense
