Justice has a new name in Seattle.

A psychological thriller series set in the shadows of Seattle, where vigilante justice takes hold and the line between right and wrong begins to fracture.

Darla Luke’s work sits at the intersection of psychological thriller, serial killer suspense, and vigilante justice, anchored by a female lead who refuses to look away.

Set against a city that never quite washes clean, the Nightwatcher Vigilante series blends psychological suspense, crime fiction, and noir mystery into a story where justice is no longer left in the hands of the system.

Computer programmer by day. Badass vigilante by night.

Kara Hunter barely survived the abduction that killed her twin sister. Now she goes by Hunter—as she hunts the predators who stalk Seattle’s women and children, guided by visions that strike when someone is about to die.

When taunting messages appear on her door, Hunter realizes the truth: the killer who destroyed her life is back—and is escalating, shattering the fragile order she’s built.

Detective Robert Walker despises vigilantes. After his father was killed because someone took justice into their own hands, Walker believes the law is the only thing keeping the city from chaos.

But, when a string of murders reopens the cold case, it forces him to confront a woman who may be the city’s best chance to stop a serial killer.

As the anniversary of her sister’s death approaches and the body count rises, Hunter faces an impossible choice: trust a system that failed her—or become something she can never take back.

Justice has a price. This time, it could be her soul.
