Chelsea Cain's novels featuring Portland detective Archie Sheridan and serial killer Gretchen Lowell have captivated fans through two New York Times bestselling entries, Heartsick and Sweetheart. And Gretchen Lowell is still on the loose. These days, she's more of a cause célèbre than a feared killer, thanks to sensationalist news coverage that has made her a star. Her face graces magazine covers and there have been sightings of her around the world. Most shocking of all, Portland Herald reporter Susan Ward has uncovered a bizarre fan club that celebrates the number of days she's been free. Archie Sheridan hunted Gretchen for a decade, and after his last ploy to catch her went spectacularly wrong, he remains hospitalized months later. When they last spoke, they entered a détente of sorts-Archie agreed not to kill himself if she agreed not to kill anyone else. But when a new body is found accompanied by Gretchen's trademark heart, all bets are off and Archie is forced back into action. Has the Beauty Killer returned to her gruesome ways, or has the cult surrounding her created a whole new evil? With Evil at Heart, Chelsea Cain is in top form. Delivering heart-stopping thrills and chills, she is an unmatched master of suspense.

Gretchen Lowell, the world's most beautiful serial killer, has escaped from prison in Chelsea Cain's unpredictable, edge-of-your-seat story, Sweetheart. Portland detective Archie Sheridan, the former head of the Beauty Killer Task Force, hunted Gretchen Lowell for years before she kidnapped him, tortured him, and then let him go. Now that she is behind bars, Archie is finally piecing his life back together. He has returned home to his ex-wife and their two children and sworn off visiting Gretchen. Though it should feel like progress, being away from Gretchen makes him feel worse. When the body of a young woman is discovered in Forest Park, Archie is reminded of the last time they found a body there, more than a decade ago: it turned out to be Gretchen's first victim, and Archie's first case. The body can't be one of hers. She's in prison. Then the unthinkable happens: Gretchen escapes and, while the city is on edge, Archie is secretly relieved. He knows he's the only one who can capture her, and once he does he now has a twisted plan to get out from under her thumb for good. Each new novel in Chelsea Cain's scorching bestselling series—Heartsick, Sweetheart, Evil at Heart, and more—is a dark, thrilling, and unparalleled tour de force.

'Ben je bang?' vraagt Gretchen. Hoe erg je ook denkt dat het kan zijn... voor detective Archie Sheridan is het erger. Hij heeft jarenlang gejaagd op Gretchen Lowell, de Beauty Killer, maar toen hij haar bijna had, liep hij in haar val. Ze ontvoerde hem en martelde hem tien dagen lang, en toen heeft ze – niemand weet waarom – hem vrijgelaten en zichzelf aangegeven. Nu, twee jaar later, is Archie verslaafd aan pijnstillers, vervreemd van zijn gezin en heeft hij één obsessie: Gretchen. Ze zit in de cel, maar ze heeft nog steeds de touwtjes in handen. Ze is slim, sexy, wreed en vals; ze is een schoonheid en een moordenares. Archie moet een nieuwe zaak oplossen en hij heeft haar nodig – zowel om de dader te vangen als om zijn ziel te bevrijden. Liefde doet pijn, martelende pijn.
