Horror Novelist Ben Bookman should be celebrating the launch of his latest novel, The Scarecrow, but instead he’s being questioned by the police over a murder that looks suspiciously like one of the ones described in his new book. There’s an awful lot of crime in the strange town of Crooked Tree, more than some of the big cities, even, and Detective Mills has his hands full catching serial killers and kidnappers and burglars and all manner of insidious folks, each with their own nightmarish moniker: The Boogeyman, The Screamer, Bad Cop, The Scarecrow, and more.
Now, watching the events of his novel unfold in the real world, Ben is forced to confront his past and try to remember what happened during his unexplained blackouts.
Imagine your worst nightmares coming to life and hunting you down…this novel is sufficiently creepy, flashing back and forth in time, following the point of view of various characters, unfolding a mystery and a nightmare with each turn of the page.
This book is perfect for Horror fans who also love grisly detective novels and serial killer stories.
