After Dusk
by Lorie O'Clare

Emily Rothmeier loves a good mystery. One involving a sexy man is even better. But when sex crimes against "older" women start terrorizing the college campus, turning private investigator might be biting off more than she can chew.

After one of her evening classes, Emily witnesses something she doesn't understand. A cry in the dark. A mysterious figure racing from the scene. The front page of the paper announcing a murder. Things don't add up. Distracted by the watchful gaze of a man who seems to be wherever she is, she isn't sure who to trust.

Private investigator, Rafe Healy, is hot on the trail. Leads are falling into place. He's going to get his man. But when Emily, who fits the killer's target group in more ways than one, tries playing mystery solver, he knows she's thrown herself into the line of fire. Not to mention, her gutsy and determined attitude is getting to him as badly as her tempting body is.

Keeping Emily safe and in line, fighting to stay one step ahead of a serial killer, and keep his wits about him, will prove to be the biggest challenge of Rafe's life.

Lorie O'Clare's Bio

All my life, I've wondered at how people fall into the routines of life. The paths we travel seemed to be well-trodden by society. We go to school, fall in love, find a line of work (and hope and pray it is one we like), have children and do our best to mold them into good people who will travel the same path. This is the path so commonly referred to as the "real world". The characters in my books are destined to stray down a different path other than the one society suggests. Each story leads the reader into a world altered slightly from the one they know. For me, this is what good fiction is about, an opportunity to escape from the daily grind and wander down someone else's path. Lorie O'Clare lives in Kansas with her three sons.
