About this audiobook
When investigative reporter Xavier Bradshaw must expose a killer or else become his next front-page headline, he doubles down scrutinizing his mentor and uncovers an impossible to ignore message.
*******
Twenty years ago, a series of unsolved, unconnected murders rocked the town of Livingston, Alberta.
Now, a city councilor is found crucified in a local church. A young woman is found dumped at the river’s edge.
Investigative reporter Xavier Bradshaw and his new partner, Jessi, need to find out who is behind these echoes of the past. Evidence points to Xavier as the prime suspect, and Livingston PD is intent on wrapping up the case. Xavier fears his mentor, a famed horror author, has too much interest in the deaths and could be the serial killer.
Bradshaw must find the truth before the killer strikes again and police seal his fate, making him the next headline.
"A slow-burn investigative thriller whose dark secrets and chilling revelations deliver a powerful final act." -Charly Cox, bestselling author of the Detective Alyssa Wyatt series.
A psychological crime thriller about identity, control, and the cost of knowing too much.

What a fabulous debut novel! It may have taken the author 20+ years to finish writing this book but it was worth the wait. I initially thought that the pace was going to be too slow to hold my interest but I liked the narrator and thankfully my perseverance paid off. Once I had adjusted to the slow pace, I particularly enjoyed the authors approach to keep readers interested, where rather than constant twists, he periodically unveiled a little more detail, drawing you in deeper each time.
