Description
Dr. Hannah Bryers' life is one of precision and control, but her work as an anthropology professor and forensics expert takes a toll on her social skills. She finds solace in the study of human remains, yet small talk with colleagues fills her with dread. Her graduate student, Winter Jones, seems like a promising protégée, but beneath her polished exterior lies a cunning and ambitious individual. As Hannah's career begins to unravel, she becomes the target of a calculated campaign of sabotage and intimidation. With each new incident, the stakes grow higher, and Hannah must navigate a complex web of suspects and motives to uncover the truth behind the attacks on her life. Can she outsmart those who seek to destroy her, or will she become the next victim? In this gripping psychological suspense novel, Jody Gehrman masterfully weaves together two narratives that converge in a heart-pounding climax. With its tense atmosphere and razor-sharp characters, The Protege is a worthwhile read for fans of Samantha Downing and Layne Fargo.
