Dare Game (The Irish Garda Files #1)
Melinda Colt

When Detective John O'Sullivan finds a dead body with an ace of spades tossed on it, he sees the playing card as a signature. In his twenty years working for An Garda S�och�na, he has dealt with a serial killer only once, and his gut tells him this is the second time. It appears he's right, as his team discovers more unsolved murders with the same modus operandi. All over the world.
Amber Reed stumbles into the middle of this mess after learning her teenage daughter is a key-player in the Dublin murder case. Determined to do the right thing-and redeem themselves-Amber and Hayley offer to help John even though that puts their own lives in danger.
As the investigation unearths one shocking thing after another, John has to protect them and solve the case before someone else dies.
Each book from The Irish Garda Files series can be read as a stand-alone novel and does not contain cliffhangers.
