โฆ Synopsis
Dark Purpose (2021)
Everyone has a purpose. Some are just darker than others.
Always calm, cool, and collected, Savannah PD Detective Charli Cross compensates for her petite five-foot frame with an impenetrable exterior and pragmatic competence. Itโs an approach that catapulted her to the rank of detective at twenty-three and contributes to her and her partnerโs unequaled murder clearance rate. But when a bird-watching couple discover the remains of a teenage girl stuffed in a storage container, Charliโs composure starts to crack.
Not only is the murder horrifying, it dredges up memories of Charliโs best friend. Madeline was only sixteen when her body was found a mere half-mile from the grisly discovery. Add the sadistic sexual component to this recent crime, as well as the location of the body, and Charli fears they are facing the hallmarks of the worst kind of serial killerโone whoโs organized and thorough. One intent on fulfilling his dark purpose.
Charlie wants to stay unemotional. But when more victims are discovered, she is determined to stop the killer before he strikes again.
This time, itโs not just her job. Itโs personal.
