This can't be the killer's first victim, and if Jack doesn't act fast, it won't be their last. Jack throws herself into the investigation, determined to beat the twisted killer at their own game.

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. The powerful story of a mind at the edge of unraveling, held together by love and acceptance. Nest and Q walk through the city. Nest speaks and Q listens. Mile by mile, Nest tells Q about her life, her family, her past . . . and her Chimaera, the beast that preys on her mind and causes her to lose herself. Q knows only that his love for Nest runs deeper than the demon that plagues her thoughts, that he loves her in spite of--or perhaps because of--the personal battle she fights every day. A beautifully-written, haunting story. Praise for Ten Miles One Way A loving but honest treatment of mental illness, these words will sing off the page and into your heart.
