Welcome to the town of Bloodson Bay, where the people are strange and the rising body count even stranger.
First a corpse goes missing. Then a girl turns up dead. It doesn't help that both happen on Peace Bloodson's farm, and her family is blamed as the "curse" strikes again—a deadly phenomenon that happens every year in her small town. Dark tales are retold in fearful whispers around campfires about an ancient murder. Wide-eyed children search the shadows for ghosts said to haunt the townsfolk. And the abandoned manor at the edge of Peace's property, called the Slaughter Shed for good reason, holds unexplainable mysteries.
As the rumors grow, so does a determination to crack the case as Peace and her misfit friends have had enough. If only they could interpret the journal they found, which holds the chilling truth about the murders. The only way to stop the death toll? Some serious sleuthing.
They are dangerously close to causing a public scandal and tearing the town apart, but there's a much more sinister threat. Someone will kill to keep the truth hidden...and probably already has.
Throw on your favorite flannel and combat boots, then dive into this 1990s throwback thriller that smells like teen spirit as a group of crime-obsessed friends risk their so-called lives to stop a century-old murder spree...
BUT BEWARE! With over 100,000 copies sold, this darkly witty mystery series can result in sleep deprivation and incurable reading addiction.
To know PAMELA CRANE, you first need to know her husband. He sleeps with one eye open. He checks the knife block to make sure none are missing. Why? It could be because they have four kids and a farm full of mischievous animals. Or it could be because she writes murder mysteries, and about the occasional woman who has lost her marbles (not based on her real-life psyche, she swears!). Don't worry--her husband is safe...for now. Her books range from witty whodunnits to psychological suspense and even humorous women's fiction thrown in for good measure. She's a USA TODAY bestselling author of over a dozen novels (who's counting?), but her biggest accomplishment is keeping her zoo of animals alive...and her husband in check.
