Life doesn't end with a whimper . . . it ends with a scream.
Jude Parish has demons. Demons so real he can almost feel the beasts with black, reptilian eyes and razor-sharp fangs taking up residence where his once confident soul resides. Demons that ended his career as a violent crimes cop.
Now the former cop turned bestselling true crime author is hoping to lead a quiet, peaceful life in the idyllic Adirondack vacation town of Lake George, New York with his pregnant wife and young son. But when Jude becomes witness to a bizarre "kill game" in which the killer insists on recording the screams of his victims prior to shooting them dead, the ex-cop's life is turned upside down.
Jude knows he has no choice but to fight his demon-fear and take on the role when he's asked to act as the state's "star witness." What he doesn't realize at the time is that the killer's arrest is actually the first level in a carefully designed first-person kill game involving his family as "players" and ultimately victims.
It won't be "Game Over" until the killer catches the screams of his tortured victims.
How will the kill game end? Can Jude face his demons and save his family? Or will they devour him and those he has sworn to protect?
