A buried past collides with a sprawling investigation

The concluding volume of the 4MK trilogy brings Detective Sam Porter and Anson Bishop’s histories into the center of an investigation spanning Chicago and South Carolina. Messages found near multiple victims link the cases, while a hospital lockdown, a rogue officer, and allegations of high-level corruption add further complications. Bishop’s decision to turn himself in introduces a new account of the notorious Four Monkey Killer case, connecting its present-day questions to events concealed for decades. The book’s central threads are the investigation, the relationship between past and present, and the secrets surrounding the killer’s motive.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers who have followed the earlier books in the 4MK trilogy.
  • Readers interested in serial-murder investigations and police or FBI cases.
  • Readers looking for a thriller that links present-day events with long-buried history.

Book overview

In the riveting conclusion of the 4MK trilogy, NY Times Bestseller Barker takes the thriller to an entirely new level. Don't miss a single word of the series James Patterson called "ingenious."

Hear No Evil

For Detective Sam Porter, the words "Father, forgive me" conjure memories long forgotten; a past intentionally buried. For Anson Bishop, these three words connect a childhood to the present as he unleashes a truth concealed for decades.

See No Evil

Found written on cardboard near each body, these words link multiple victims to a single killer--discovered within minutes of each other in both Chicago and South Carolina--clearly connected yet separated by impossible miles.

Speak No Evil

Chicago Metro and the FBI find themselves caught in chaos--a hospital on lockdown, a rogue officer, and corruption at the highest levels. When Anson Bishop, the prime suspect in the notorious 4MK serial murders turns himself in, he reveals a story completely unexpected, one that not only upends the current investigation, but one that will change the lives of all involved.

Do No Evil

With unrelenting tension and pulse-pounding suspense, the past unravels at breakneck speed as the truth behind the Four Monkey Killer's motive is finally revealed in this masterfully crafted finale.
