EBOOK
About
Winter comes hard in Midland, Texas. The wind never stops. The sky hangs low and gray. And now, something cold has settled into the town-something far worse than the weather.
The first body is discovered in a patch of dead mesquite, arranged with unsettling care. There are signs of a struggle-violent, desperate-but the final pose is calm, almost theatrical. A corpse meant to be seen.
Sheriff Roger Hartley has seen his share of death, but this feels different. Calculated. Intentional. When a second body appears-just as carefully staged-he knows it's no coincidence. Someone is building something. A pattern. A narrative. And they're using corpses to write it.
With Deputy Liz Trujillo at his side, Roger begins to unravel a web of secrets the town has quietly buried for years. But the deeper they dig, the more disturbing the truth becomes. The victims aren't random. The killer isn't distant. And the past isn't done with any of them.
This isn't just a hunt for a killer.
It's a descent-into the town's forgotten sins, into the things Roger and Liz were never meant to uncover.
And as the pattern sharpens and the bodies mount, one thing becomes clear:
The final scene has already been set.
And they're standing in the middle of it.
