Max Seeck Synopses: In The Witch Hunter by Max Seeck, a bestselling author’s wife is found dead, posed at the head of an empty dining table and dressed in a black evening gown. Her face is frozen in a disturbing smile, and the crime scene bears striking similarities to the murders described in her husband’s popular Witch Hunt novels.
Investigator Jessica Niemi is assigned to the case and initially believes she is hunting a killer inspired by fiction. As the investigation progresses, she discovers something far more complicated. Instead of a single murderer, she finds evidence of a larger group united by a belief in a sinister form of witchcraft. Worse, they seem to know her every move and stay one step ahead of her efforts to stop them.
As more bodies are found, Jessica is drawn into a dangerous pursuit that forces her to confront secrets from her own past. While trying to prevent the group from claiming more victims, she must also face personal demons that threaten to derail the investigation. The deeper she goes, the clearer it becomes that solving the case may require uncovering truths she would rather leave buried.
In The Ice Coven, six months after her confrontation with a deadly coven and the loss of her mentor, homicide investigator Jessica Niemi is still struggling with disturbing nightmares linked to her mother and the occult forces that shaped her past. Despite the emotional toll, she remains focused on her work as her unit, now under new leadership, takes on a troubling new case.
The investigation begins when the body of a young woman washes up on an icy beach. Around the same time, two high‑profile social media influencers disappear. As Jessica and her colleagues search for a connection, they uncover links between the victims and a sinister cult. The case takes an even stranger turn when Jessica discovers a painting of a remote lighthouse accompanied by a gruesome poem that appears to describe a murder.
As the evidence mounts, Jessica begins to fear that her nightmares may be connected to the investigation itself. While pursuing the truth behind the deaths and disappearances, she is forced to confront painful memories she has spent years trying to leave behind. With the past closing in and the danger growing, Jessica must solve the case before it consumes both her career and her life.
