Death Notice
Perry Hollow, Pennsylvania, was always a sleepy little town…until the first body was found. Embalmed and with its lips sewn shut, the body is a horrific calling card from a killer on the lookout for their next victim…
It’s the message that nobody wants to hear…
Perry Hollow, Pennsylvania, is a sleepy little town. That is
until George Winnick’s body is found in a homemade coffin,
his lips sewn shut and his veins pumped with embalming fluid.
Sickening as the discovery is, it becomes even more so when
police chief Kat Campbell finds that the local newspaper
received a death notice for Winnick – before he was killed…
Kat is out of her depth, but she’s not about to sit by while
someone terrorizes her community. Will her efforts be enough
to stop a twisted killer before another corpse appears?
