Publisher Description
“… A ruthlessly efficient straight-arrow tale that’s a welcome change of pace for the Monkeewrench gang.”—Kirkus Reviews
Computer game company founders Grace MacBride and Annie Belinsky—along with Wisconsin deputy Sharon Mueller—are en route to Green Bay, following reports of a serial killer, when their car breaks down deep in the northern woods.
A short walk through the forest leads them to the eerily quiet town of Four Corners, where they find severed phone lines and a complete absence of any life. But the quiet is deceptive. Before they know it, they witness a horrifying double murder—and discover that this is only the beginning of a race to save their own lives … and countless others.

"This book was interesting. Really creative plot and idea! You start out kind of confused in the beginning but by the time you are at the end, you feel the horror start progressing and you know something bad is going to happen and you just sit there waiting. Large amount of suspense! I started yelling at the book to yearn the characters!"
— Courtney (5 out of 5 stars)

" started reading this and thought this sounds familiar....yeah because I've already read it! A great one but I don't want to read it again...next! "

" This was a book I just could not put down. PJ Tracy grabbed my attention from the beginning and successfully kept me captive throughout this surprising and incredibly unnerving mystery. "
— Sarah, 2/19/2014 -
" This was horrible! It started off fine enough then there were far too many odd ball plot twists and an inordinate amount of time was spent crawling through the dark in the mud. I tried to skim ahead to see "who dunnit" and couldn't dig the answer out of this mess of a book. I'll trudge through onto the next in the series. It can't possibly get any worse. "
— Jennifer, 1/17/2014 -
" Absolutely love the entire Monkeewrench series. It doesn't get much better. "
— Martina, 1/15/2014 -
" I adore the Monkeewrench crew. Thumbs up "
— Lindsey, 1/13/2014 -
" Every time I drive through a small town in New England I will think about this book. "
— Christine, 1/9/2014 -
" A little confussing in the first chapter, but than made sense. Did jump from different scenes which I found a little annoying, but overall the story was good. "
— Sindy, 1/8/2014 -
" They kept up the excellent work in this series. Wonderful read, very though provoking about issues in book. "
— Jeanne, 1/8/2014 -
" Enjoyed this, will read the rest in the series. "
— Frances, 12/27/2013 -
" This book was so exciting I was almost standing to read it. Best to start with the first book in the series, "Monkeewrench'. "
— TeriC, 12/19/2013 -
" Another enjoyable read in the Monkeewrench series. Crisp dialoge with a dash of humor mixes nicely with the tense situation the group finds themselves in. "
— Donna, 12/17/2013 -
" 3rd in the Monkeewrench series. Even better than the first two--more intense. I couldn't put it down--I was up past 1 in the morning with my booklight on because I HAD to finish it. "
— Jen, 12/16/2013 -
" Great book- her mysterys are fun and I don't really want to put it down. "
— Janell, 12/15/2013 -
" I enjoyed this Monkeewrench group mystery and will look for more. "
— Eunira, 11/27/2013 -
" what can i say! loved this book was fabulous! The Monkeewrench series featuring Grace MacBride and crew have been really enjoyable to read and this one is the classic race-against-time novel..! nail biting! "
— Zoe, 11/26/2013 -
" An improvement over the rather awful Live Bait, but still a lot of action in search of a purpose for its occurrence. Decent if you're looking for a low-thought read, but there are others that do high-tech crime solving better. "
— Jessica, 9/10/2013 -
" The best of the Monkeewrench novels to date. "
— Brett, 5/17/2013 -
" A great new Monkeewrench book. I quite enjoyed it. It was a little scary, as usual. But that's what made it great. "
— Michele, 3/31/2013 -
" Monkeewrench #3 "
— Ellen, 12/13/2012 -
" Great start to this thriller as a tanker of chemicals accidently wipes out an american small Town Our hero's then stumble on the attempts to cover it up. The ending however tries and fails to manufacture tension "
— Simeonberesford, 10/1/2012 -
" Excellent! And scary. All my favorite characters from the first 2 Monkeewrench books are back and they're better than ever. I couldn't put this one down. Great plot, great characters, fast pace ... all the important stuff very well done. "
— Frankie, 9/6/2012 -
" On the one hand, I had a hard time putting this one down once I got started. On the other hand, the storyline was a little to "out there" for me. A fast, fun read and I'll continue on with the series...hopefully they'll get back to good old murder. "
— Kate, 5/21/2012 -
" Good extension of the series. Not as funny as the previous book and sometimes the plot tends a little too strongly toward the improbable but a fun read none the less. "
— Mike, 4/18/2012 -
" As with all thier books, great dialogue and character development. Although not as believable as their other novels, still a good read for the mystery lovers. "
— Kyle, 12/16/2011 -
" third book was much better than the second!! more action! "
— Heather, 6/29/2011 -
" Wekest of the series so far. Feels like a filler book. "
— Cathy, 5/26/2011 -
" All of the Monkeewrench novels are confusing, but if you keep reading, it's worth it. "
— Jill, 5/17/2011 -
" This one dragged on a bit when the girls were running all over the place but you can skim and the story-line is still very good. "
— Dawn, 3/8/2011 -
" I love the characters in these books, especially Grace McBride, I love her and also Annie Belinsky.. this kept me hanging on the edge of my seat, really liked it. "

" Stayed up too late because I had to finish it. "
— Magda, 2/1/2011 -
" Another solid book by P.J. Tracy. Brought back some of the characters from the first book in the series. The end dragged a bit but otherwise it was very suspenseful. "
— Barbara, 1/6/2011 -
" A really good spy/mystery/detective book. "
— Janice, 12/30/2010 -
" Great start to this thriller as a tanker of chemicals accidently wipes out an american small Town Our hero's then stumble on the attempts to cover it up. The ending however tries and fails to manufacture tension "
— Simeonberesford, 12/28/2010 -
" Dead Run is the 3rd book in the Monkeewrench series, and PJ Tracy just continues to keep up the suspense in a very smartly written book. Even with 2 of them writing, how do they do it? "
— Janet, 12/18/2010 -
" Creative. Entertaining. I did not start with the first book so I missed the beginning of the relationships, which worked OK but would have been better to start from the beginning in this series. A fun read. "
— Mary, 12/14/2010 -
" Not as good as previous books in the series but still a real page turner. "
— Steven, 12/11/2010 -
" A taut thriller; kept me on the edge of my seat. If I am ever on the run, I want Grace McBride with me! "
— Vickie, 12/6/2010 -
" third book was much better than the second!! more action! "
— Heather, 11/13/2010 -
" Very good and exciting read. "
— Mary, 11/9/2010 -
" These are fun, easy to read mysteries with lots of twists and near misses. These books are also fun because they take place in Minnesota and often into Wisconsin. I recommend P.J. Tracy to anyone who likes a mystery but beware it might keep you up at night trying to read just a little more. "
— Kriscrowe, 10/13/2010 -
" Could not put it down, literally. Read it in one sitting. \ <br/> <br/>Fabulous characters. Incredible pacing. Besotted men racing to help women--who, as they are surprised to find out, don't exactly need their help. "
— Lois, 9/20/2010
About P. J. Tracy
P. J. Tracy was the pseudonym of mother-daughter writing team P. J. and Traci Lambrecht. Traci spent most of her childhood riding and showing horses. She graduated with a Russian studies major from St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota, where she also studied voice. Her aspirations of becoming a spy were dashed when the Cold War ended, so she began writing to finance her annoying habits of travel and singing in rock bands. Much to her mother’s relief, she finally realized that the written word was her true calling. They had a long, prolific career together in multiple genres before P. J.’s passing in December 2016. Traci continues to write.
