Chronological Order of Lucy Kincaid Series

Lucy Kincaid, who later on becomes an FBI agent, is almost murdered by a cyber predator. This inspires and prompts her to team up with Sean Rogan, who is a security professional and doubles as a private investigator. Lucy Kincaid is driven by a deeply-rooted urge to nip online predators in the bud. The book series starts with a prequel, a novella, which soberly details the vacation which Lucy Kincaid has opted for after she and her boyfriend call it quits. Unfortunately for Kincaid, her vacation is fraught with problems; these troubles come in its train following the discovery of the murder of another vacationing guest who had been there for honeymooning aims. Worse still, the presumed murderer of the guest is lurking in the secluded lodge where she is with her brother, a former law enforcer.

The plot of the first book in the serialized Lucy Kincaid, Love Me to Death, starts by reflecting on character Lucy Kincaid’s experiences at the hands of a cyber predator. This nasty event happened six years previously. In a classic case of kindness, she is angling to do what no one else did for her in the run-up to her being predated on. She is looking forward to becoming an FBI agent thanks to her burning desire to take the war against cyber attacks a notch higher. But her ambition is seemingly ill-fated and even her safety is hanging by a thread. Unfortunately for Kincaid, there is a plethora of problems. First, as she is eagerly awaiting her stint as an FBI agent, she decides to volunteer her services to a lobby group. The group is mandated with prowling the Internet on the sly, seeking to hoodwink and set-up potential predators.

Unluckily for Lucy Kincaid, those very predators prospecting for cyber attacks start turning up dead. Consequently, the FBI flag down the possible suspects for a watching brief and, therefore, Kincaid is on the agency’s watch list. Kincaid, who later on learns that she is being stalked, teams up with the no-nonsense Sean Rogan. The ambitious duo kick start a task, which bristles the hairs in the nape, in their unwavering quest for trailing the mysterious and malicious online prowlers harboring ill-will and thought-crime. Their effort to tackle the predators, which transcend cities, takes them to dangerous locales in Washington, D.C., where there is no place for the lily-livered.
