SOLVED. Adult Thriller. Title I believe was called either Hunter or Hunted. I believe the cover was orange with a leaf or a flame on it. Main character was a cop or fbi agent going home to small town and there is a serial killer. [s]

Saw it mid 2023 at Barnes and Noble in the hardcover section. Googling hasn’t worked so hoping someone here knows. Appreciate the help!

The Hunter by Jennifer Herrera looks like a match
