Publisher's summary

An Amazon Charts and Wall Street Journal bestselling series.

Detective Tracy Crosswhite draws a long-dormant serial killer out of hiding in a nerve-shattering novel by New York Times bestselling author Robert Dugoni.

Tracy Crosswhite is reopening the investigation into Seattle’s Route 99 serial killer. After thirteen victims, he stopped hunting and the trail went cold, stirring public outrage. Now, nearly three decades after his first kill, Tracy is expected to finally bring closure to the victims’ families and redeem the Seattle PD’s reputation. Even if it means working with her nemesis, Captain Johnny Nolasco.

Lead detective of the original task force, Nolasco dares Tracy to do what he failed to: close the case. Forming an uneasy alliance, Tracy and Nolasco revisit old leads and pursue new evidence only to unearth high-level corruption and cover-ups as dangerous as the elusive killer himself. At the risk of being exposed, such deadly and powerful forces will go to extremes to stay in the shadows.

That’s just where Tracy and Nolasco are headed—to find the twisted truth behind a killer’s motives, his disappearance, and his chilling comeback.

Critic reviews

“Dugoni brilliantly folds murders past and present into his heroine’s earlier cases and her troubled history.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

“Though this is the 10th Tracy Crosswhite, newcomers will savor the story, while Dugoni fans will love how he ties up several storylines from earlier novels. Few authors deliver consistently stellar crime fiction, and Dugoni is one of those writers. Michael Connelly fans should have this series on their reading pile.”—First Clue Reviews

Ut was good

Not quite the suspense as her other books. But still good. I listened to it, wondering if this was the last one in the series.

Not one of his best!

A slow start to the revelation that this was going to be an intriguing story. The character of Tracy and her team’s relationship greatly enhanced the story which turned out to be an exciting read.

Crosswhite is phenomenal again!

Just when I get bored reading books and struggle finding one to keep my attention, Crosswhite comes back to the Rescue. Dugoni’s writing style mixed with his amazing ability to revolve a story around multiple characters and keep you invested in every character’s life makes this series one of the best I’ve read.

Good

Good twist at the end did not see that coming..liked the way it was read

Is the narrator a robot?

Story good, as always. Is the narrator AI? Just awful. Can’t focus on story as narration is so distracting. It’s a shame.

Emily Sutton-Smith gives an excellent performance

I am a Tracy Crosswhite fan or, more accurately, a Robert Dugoni fan. If you've followed the Crosswhite series, you will definitely want to continue with One Last Kill. If you haven't, by all means, start reading this series. Book 1 is titled. My Sister's Grave. And, if you haven't read any other book by Robert Dugoni, don't wait any longer.
One other observation, make sure you include the excellent audio performance by Emily Sutton-Smith. She transitions from character to character so smoothly that you'd think there is an entire cast of performers involved. - Mr. Bill

What a ride!

I was so excited to preorder this and the wait was worth it.

Great job to the author who really created and continued the familiar characters and brought not only current day happenings as well as pulling the history of main characters and casework.

Not a fan of having to wait for the next installation but glad there is another one on the way!!!

Tracy and Emily are back!

Robert Dugoni did it again! I'm really hoping that this series keeps going! Another great storyline in a very addicting series. This book definitely didn't disappoint!
Tracy Crosswhite sleuths away while being a bada$$, a Mom, Wife and Friend.
Emily Sutton-Smith brings these books to life. I love listening to her narrate books. Must listen to or read, even recommended this series to my doctor yesterday.
