Alexandra Benedict
In this eerie, gripping crime thriller from USA Today bestselling author Alexandra Benedict, one woman is tasked with investigating a series of disturbing deaths that resemble different classic fairytales, only to find out that the killings have much more to do with the facts of her own past than with fiction. . .
Once upon a time, like you've never read it before
DI Lyla Rondell is on the case of a lifetime. Coined “The Grimm Ripper Murders” by a buzzing press, Lyla is charged with investigating a series of perplexing deaths, each one seemingly based on a different classic fairytale. And they’re far from the stuff of bedtime stories.
Unbeknownst to Lyla, there is an author locked in a Tower, forced to write the twisted inspiration for these murders for a terrifying masked man, and desperately trying to leave a trail of clues for Lyla through her stories.
But as the bodies stack up, Lyla’s whole world begins to flip on its head. Because the killer’s bloody trail stretches deep into her own past, and when she discovers the truth, nothing will ever be the same. Faced with the fact that everything she knows is fiction, Lyla will have to take a little creative license of her own if she’s going to turn the final page on the killings.
