Killer Smile cover

“Hooks you in. This is a well-executed psychological thriller. Its dark, gritty storyline has twists and turns that you don’t see coming.”

One killer was bad enough. After famously stopping a serial killer, a detective makes a disturbing discovery: a dark website for serial killers has targeted him.

Summoned to a mysterious meeting, detective Cade Dawkins is confronted with his past. A University of Minnesota computer science professor has discovered a disturbing website on the dark web. Made up of serial killers, they use the site to share exploits, brag and offer challenges to one another. But it gets worse. After Cade famously stopped a serial killer in the Twin Cities—and nearly lost the two women closest to him—a new site-wide challenge is issued: Come to Minnesota and outsmart the detective who stopped the Blonde Killer. Come and kill here.

With two killers from the site terrifying the public, the media turning on him, and the governor threatening to fire him, time isn’t Cade’s friend. But then, neither are the serial killers.

Set in the Twin Cities where author Allan Evans grew up, this thriller is the follow-up to Killer Blonde.

“I really enjoyed this book and couldn’t put it down. I read it in one night! I might have had a book hangover but it was worth it! If you love thrilling crime reads do yourself a favor and read this book!”

About the author
Allan Evans writes the twisty thrillers your friends warn you not to start before bed. He’s the author of three Cade Dawkins thrillers, Killer Blonde, Killer Smile, and Killer Instinct, along with several young adult and middle-grade novels, which have earned him a wonderfully surprising number of young readers who think he’s cooler than he probably is.

When he isn’t writing, he’s coaching middle-school soccer or diving into research that inevitably finds its way into his books. He lives in Minnesota, where winter is cold, crime is complicated, and stories are never in short supply.
