Lost Souls

Lost Souls

by Lisa Jackson (Author)

Synopsis

Lisa Jackson's new novel returns to Louisiana - scene of some of her most memorable bestsellers - where a courageous young investigator infiltrates a death cult. Three girls have disappeared from All Saints University. They were all 'lost souls' ...The police think they're runaways, but Kristi Bentz - who has survived a serial killer twice - senses there's something that links them, something terrifying. She enrolls at her old college in New Orleans, following the steps of the troubled, vulnerable girls. All Saints has changed. Among the edgy new courses and plays, there are whispers of a secret society on campus whose members wear vials of blood around their necks. To find the truth, Kristi will need to become part of their inner circle and play the part of a lost soul without losing herself in the process. It's a dangerous path, and Kristi is skating on its knife-thin edge. The deeper she goes, the more Kristi begins to wonder if she is the hunter or the prey. She is playing a game with a killer more cunning and bloodthirsty than anyone can imagine, one who has personally selected her for membership in a cult of death from which there will be no escape.
