With Night Work, award-winning author of the acclaimed Alex McKnight series Steve Hamilton delivers an atmospheric standalone thriller.
Joe Trumbull is not a man who scares easily. But tonight he is scared to death.
It's been two years since Joe's fiancée, Laurel, was murdered. Two years of grief and loneliness. On this hot summer night, he's finally going on a blind date, his first since Laurel's death. He's not looking for love, just testing the waters to see if it's possible to live a normal life again. And after the first awkward minutes, Joe starts to think this date wasn't such a bad idea after all. In fact, maybe it will turn out to be one of the best things that ever happened to him.
He couldn't be more wrong. Because somehow, for reasons Joe doesn't yet understand, this one evening will mark the beginning of a new nightmare. A nightmare that will lead him to realize that the past is never past. And the worst is yet to come.

HE'S HAUNTED BY THE PAST
Meet Joe Trumbull. Two years ago his fiancee, Laurel, was brutally murdered...and the killer was never caught. Joe, a juvenile probation officer in Kingston, New York, won't ever forget his first true love. But as time passes, he is willing to give another woman, Marlene Frost, a chance--and hopes a brand-new relationship with a beautiful, charismatic woman might be just what he needs.
AND THE WORST IS YET TO COME...
Turns out Joe is dead wrong. Because somehow, for reasons he cannot even begin to understand, his first date with Marlene will mark the beginning of a new nightmare--one that will lead him down a dark, familiar road...to the faceless man in the shadows...and to the most terrible realization of all.
