ONE MAN’S REST STOP IS ANOTHER MAN’S HUNTING GROUND
When FBI special agent Maggie O’Dell and her partner, Tully, discover the remains of a young woman in a highway ditch, the only clue is a map leading them to spot where they’ll find madman’s next victim.
As the body count rises, Maggie must race against the clock to unmask the monster terrorizing America’s highways, even if it means turning to a former foe for help. But as she gets closer to finding the killer, it becomes eerily clear that Maggie may be the ultimate target. . .

From Booklist
*Starred Review* A serial killer who finds his victims—preferably two at a time—at interstate-highway rest stops takes a shine to FBI Special Agent Maggie O’Dell and starts leaving her clues. A map left in Maggie’s burned-down house in the Washington, D.C., area sends her, with partner R. J. Tully, to a deserted farm in Sioux City, Iowa. Here, with the help of Ryder Creed’s cadaver-hunting dog, they find one of the killer’s prime dumping grounds, as the perpetrator himself watches. Then comes a clue from Manhattan, Kansas, where a college student who survived the killer is terrorized by his memory of his best friend being savagely murdered and threats of what could happen to him. In her eleventh Maggie O’Dell entry, Kava shows mastery in constructing a plot with nonstop action, covering a time span of just over a week, with suspense rising to a nearly unbearable level in a climax in the Florida backwaters. Maggie is indomitable—slogging through mud or water in search of clues and perps, inured to the sight of decapitated or eviserated bodies, cool in facing a canny killer—with a loyal supporting cast and hints of a new romantic interest. Prime escapism for thriller fans with strong stomachs. --Michele Leber

A very authentic mystery
By Barb
Many times while traveling the nations highways, I have enjoyed the rest areas and truck stops for their vibrant air of America on the move. Travel these same roads alone and in the dark of night and your perspective changes dramatically. This is when I prefer to have a large dog and a handgun with me. The victims of what the FBI called the "truck stop killer" did not have the sense of danger and lost their lives. The book opens with Maggie O'Dell and her partner checking an obvious burial site for this killer. As the body count on the site behind the rest stop increases, Maggie and her fellow profilers and friends find that this killer has a strange fascination with Maggie and has already torched her home. The killer's identity is a mystery although they know much about him. A cadaver dog handler piques dog lover Maggie's interest and admiration. New bodies linked to the killer keep Maggie moving though Kansas, Nebraska and Iowa as well as the East Coast. Is she pursuing or being lured to the killer? The final confrontation is as unexpected as it is dangerous to Maggie and those she cares for.

Another Captivating Action-Packed Thriller in Alex Kava's Maggie O'Dell Series! Enjoy!
By Tom McGee
Since 2008, I have read many Alex Kava's thrillers in her FBI Agent Maggie O'Dell series. For me, each becomes increasingly addictive. This captivating 320-page suspense thriller, "Stranded" is my favorite to date.
Kava holds the readers' focus through believable, memorable characters, smooth transitions, perfect pace, intriguing subplots, vividly descriptive writing and choice of words that are not x-rated.
In this case, an evil, mysterious, insidious serial killer crisscrosses American highways seeking unsuspecting victims at rest stops to terrorize and murder. The author uses short chapters and converging stories beginning with grisly scenes just off interstate 70 outside Manhattan, Kansas and another just off interstate 29 outside Sioux City Iowa to develop this spellbinding plot.
While this is a standalone novel, I would recommend reading some of the earlier novels in this series to appreciate the intricate background and careful development of the most prominent returning characters in the series.
Margaret "Maggie" O'Dell and R J Tully are seasoned Virginia based FBI agents. Their boss, Assistant Director Raymond Kunze assigned them to the FBI's Serial Killing Initiative that started years earlier with the creation of a database of murder victims found along United States Highways and interstates, now numbering over 500. The database was created to allow local law enforcement officers a source to check whether murders in their jurisdiction might be related to victims in other states.
Up to this point, the psychopathic killer meticulously planned and gave careful forethought implementing his sick game without a pattern or trail. It seemed all too easy for him; however, seeking a more stimulating challenge, he plots bigger game, intentionally leaving clues, to draw in a new target--Agent O'Dell.
Enter an intriguing new character and possible star of his own series, Ryder Creed, from Florida who is introduced when Agent Tully solicits Ryder and his partner, Hannah's company's services, Crime Scent K9. Ryder rescues and trains abandoned dogs like Jack Russell white terrier, Grace to track cadavers or missing people in various settings.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and look forward to the next in riveting series. I bet you will too!
Enjoy!

Hang onto your hats, this is one wild ride!
By Marilyn Meredith
I've read other Alex Kava thrillers and knew what to expect and wasn't the least bit disappointed.
FBI special agent, Maggie O'Dell and her partner are drawn into the web created by a serial killer who is leaving bodies near open highways. The victims are not similar excepting the fact that they were in a vulnerable situation. It isn't long before Maggie realizes the killer has formed a connection with her. As to be expected, Maggie begins to figure out what is going on, but ends up finding herself in a life-threatening situation, not only for herself but also for her partner. I found it impossible to put down until I reached the end. And one added intriguing element is introduced in the possibility of a new romance for Maggie, making anxious for the next book in the series.
