MIMIC

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. A coded letter to the press. A killer who calls himself the Gemini. And crime scenes copied from cases that were supposed to stay buried. When hikers discover a woman's body staged in a California state park — arranged to mirror a decades-old unsolved murder — FBI Special Agent Katie Ford and her partner Nina Shaw are dispatched to San Jose to investigate. Within days, a second victim appears, posed to replicate another cold case. Then a third. Each recreation is more precise than the last, and the killer is sending cipher-coded letters to a local newspaper, taunting investigators and building a legend modeled on the Zodiac. But Katie sees something the rest of the task force doesn't. Every original case the Gemini is recreating came from the same jurisdiction — the one where her father served as a federal agent before his murder. Cases that were closed too quickly. Victims who were forgotten too easily. Someone is dragging these old sins into the light, and they wanted Katie Ford specifically on this case. As the Gemini's coded messages grow bolder and the body count climbs, Katie is forced into an impossible position: a secret prison visit that could end her career, a terrified informant who knows more than he's saying, and a growing suspicion that someone inside the Bureau has been protecting the people responsible for her father's death. The answers are buried in a past the FBI sealed shut — and the killer may be the only one willing to crack it open. MIMIC is a dark, twisting FBI thriller about buried corruption, dangerous obsession, and the sins institutions would rather forget — perfect for fans of Karin Slaughter, Lisa Gardner, and Robert Dugoni. The third book in the Katie Ford FBI Thriller series by Sam Baron.
