Sleep Tight: A Novel

A serial killer's sole survivor may hold the key to stopping a new wave of murders in this horror thriller. Father Silence once terrorized the rural town of Twisted Tree by disguising himself as a priest to target vulnerable community members. When police discovered his "House of Horrors," they found nineteen bodies and one surviving boy, who was institutionalized in a hospital for the criminally insane. Nearly two decades later, Father Silence is executed. The next morning, the detective who originally arrested him is found dead. A new serial killer claims responsibility and calls himself the Outcast. Detective Tess Claibourne, the daughter of the murdered detective, is haunted by childhood trauma and the resurgence of Father Silence's legacy. When the Outcast kidnaps Tess's daughter, she is forced to confront her deepest fears and buried memories. With no leads, Tess returns to Twisted Tree to visit the boy who survived Father Silence, hoping to uncover secrets hidden in his fractured mind.
