Lieutenant Jonathan Stride knows his partner, Maggie Bei, is in trouble when she reports a deadly crime on a bitter winter night. She’s obviously hiding a terrible secret, and her silence only feeds suspicion. But Maggie isn’t the only one keeping secrets in Duluth. A seductive young woman has disappeared, leaving behind a stash of lurid fantasies and a cryptic message: “I know who it is.”
Following a twisted trail, Stride uncovers a sordid web of violence and voyeurism that someone is willing to kill for in order to keep hidden. His lover, Serena Dial, a homicide cop turned private investigator, is chasing a blackmailer who knows all the city’s dirty secrets, even Maggie’s. But as Stride and Serena hunt for a killer, a predator is hunting them, with a terrifying plan for revenge.

"I loved this book.... completely rated R but great mystery!! Imo Brian freeman doesn't get enough credit for his work; he is the next Harlan Coben! This story was completely unpredictable and there several twists at the end. I give bonus points for authors who cover their bases and leave no loose ends and I did feel there was a big one but overall great book... kept me wanting to read it until the very end."

“Brian Freeman is, quite simply, a first-rate storyteller. Stalked is scary, fast-paced, and refreshingly well written. The characters are so sharply drawn and interesting, we can’t wait to meet the next one in the story. Freeman has another winner.”
— Nelson DeMille #1 New York Times bestselling author“Chilling, atmospheric…A strong narrative crammed with twists and studded with sex and violence; a mysterious, even mystical, sense of place; and a well-crafted set of characters and relationships make this one of Freeman’s stronger crime thrillers.”
— Publishers Weekly“ The final conflict on the frozen waters of a Minnesota lake is nothing short of inspired-- a perfect read for a freezing February night! ”
— Book Page“A perfect blend of psychological suspense and crime fiction.”
— Chicago Tribune“Chilling and heart-thumping.”

— Krishna, 1/20/2014" Average who-done-it in a good setting, winter in Duluth, MN. A sex club figures heavily into plot, which seemed like a stretch for Duluth. "
— Bill, 1/18/2014" A good murder mystery about obsession, and secrets kept. A bit erotic and violent in places, but like the characters. A good psychological thriller. "
