    About this ebook

    When a storm causes an unexpected, late-night bus delay, Kara, a sheltered cheerleader type meets independent, tough girl, Mina. The two find they have much in common as Kara’s parents are in the middle of a divorce, and Mina is also from a broken home. Mina tells Kara about the recent brutal murders of young women in this area. Mina says she senses evil around them now, unknown eyes watching.

    Jordan, an attractive stranger, who claims to be a photographer, tries to lure Kara from the station, but she manages to escape from him. Kara realizes she must act quickly to protect herself and Mina from the serial killer who is every moment getting closer.
