Dead Men Kill

THE DEAD ARE COMING BACK TO KILL.

Detective-Sergeant Terry Lane has faced ruthless killers before—but never the impossible.

One by one, prominent businessmen are strangled by former employees who have already been buried. Every clue points to the dead. Every witness tells the same unbelievable story. And with public panic rising, the police have nowhere to turn.

As Terry digs deeper, a handful of baffling clues—a Haitian pharmacy receipt, a sinister warning signed “Loup-Garou,” and an empty grave—lead him toward a conspiracy more terrifying than he ever imagined. Then the mysterious nightclub performer Dawn Drayden crosses his path. Beautiful, enigmatic and impossible to read, she seems to know far more about the murders than she’s willing to reveal. Whether she’s Terry’s greatest ally or his most dangerous deception is a risk he’ll have to take.

Every answer raises another question.

Every step brings Terry closer to becoming the next victim.

And somewhere in the shadows, an unseen mastermind is turning the walking dead into instruments of murder.

Filled with impossible murders, escalating suspense, eerie atmosphere and relentless action, Dead Men Kill is a classic mystery adventure that keeps readers guessing until its unforgettable conclusion.
