"S. R. Reynolds has never forgotten the case of fifteen-year-old Michelle Anderson, a vibrant beauty who went missing from her Knoxville, Tennessee, neighborhood in 1987. Aided by her old professor, famed forensic anthropologist Dr. Bill Bass, founder of the University of Tennessee's Forensic Anthropology Center--The Body Farm--Reynolds picks up on the trail of this cold case. As she presses neglected pieces of the puzzle into place, Reynolds unearths a string of rapes across the South, crimes that span decades. Interviewing known victims, a picture begins to form. Patterns appear. And all evidence points to one man: convicted sex offender Larry Lee Smith. As a result of Reynolds' efforts, the Knoxville Police Department reopens the cold case of Michelle Anderson's disappearance, but Larry Lee is about to be released from a Georgia prison, where he served 20 years for a related crime--a similar transaction. Will he emerge from prison a changed man? Are the young women of Knoxville safe? Can Larry Lee control his deviant fantasies or will this monster strike again? Two books in one volume." - Publisher's description.
