Description
A quiet little town. A malignant mind lurking. Three souls tied together in a brutal killing spree.
Twelve-year-old Eli Wright's imagination knows no bounds. Pushed by his folks into assisting the creepy fragile widow next door, he reluctantly does chores while inventing stories about the memory-addled oddball. But he's horrified when she demands he help her bury a young couple she killed... or she'll slaughter his entire family.
Twenty-nine-year-old Julie Baker is hiding in plain sight. Still haunted by her mother's infamously high-profile death twenty years ago, taking a new identity and moving to a sleepy community brings slim comfort. And the librarian fears the past has returned with a vengeance after blacking out and waking as a sinister storm rages to find her sickly aunt mysteriously dead.
Trapped in a nightmare, Eli desperately seeks escape as the crazed woman's psychosis escalates and the body count rises. While Julie's foreboding follows her to work where the stink of bleach fouls the air, and the encroaching shadows fill her with dread.
Eli and Julie's lives converge, dangerously bound to the unraveling woman. As the trio draw closer to their destiny, will evil seal their bond in blood?
The Darling Killer is a shiver-inducing standalone psychological thriller. If you like haunted protagonists, deadly stakes, and hints of the supernatural, then you'll love E. M. Jones's journey into darkness.
