This Blood Runs Deep (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798950805004)

Two Centuries. Two Girls. One hungry shadow.

1903: The double murder of Josie's older sister and brother-in-law shatters the peace of her quiet Iowa farm town. The law has its culprit - a blood-stained stranger caught in the aftermath, but Josie sees a terrified girl instead of a monster. As the two form a bond to find the true killer, they realize something much darker than a man is hunting them.

2023: Shaly wants out. She's counting the days until college, but her exit is marred by an internet influencer's "true crime" renovation of the town's most infamous murder house. The construction doesn't just bother the neighbors - it unearths an ancient, dormant evil.

Josie risked her life to save a stranger: now Shaly must risk her future to save a town she hates. As the past and present bleed together, the thread connecting the two girls has finally snapped, and whatever is on the other side is starving for new blood.
