The Hollow Town (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798995911609)

A small town. A buried past. Something that wears the dead.

Everyone in Hollow Town has a secret.

But none of them are human.

When a tourist is found brutally murdered, Sheriff Rowan Hale expects a killer.

What she finds instead-

is something that doesn't kill to feed.

It uses people.

The body is wrong.

Not torn apart.

Not eaten.

Emptied.

And whatever was inside it-

is still here.

It's learning.

Watching.

Getting closer.

Because Rowan has seen this before.

The night she killed the man she loved-

something else came out of him.

She buried it.

Locked it down.

Told herself it was over.

It wasn't.

Now it's back.

Smarter.

Closer.

Wearing familiar faces.

And the more she hunts it-

the more it begins to understand her.

Because this time...

it didn't come to hunt.

It came for her.
