***Slow-Burn Book!!!***
A serial killer emerges out of the small town of Heppner, Oregon. How do they know? The killings that occur become quite similar though not the same as the "Black Dahlia" murder done close to 80 years ago in Southern California, yet not quite. Worse.

Unlike that murder way back when this killer is on a roll. In small towns across the US, victims are found just like the first, with a red lipstick mark of "X" over their foreheads and Cereal Chex over their eyes. The killer is so good at covering their tracks that the Feds are stumped. Does the red lipstick mark of "X" mean that that is how many people must die before the killer retires? Or is it just there to throw them all off track?

Then the trail goes silent. The case was placed in the Cold Case files for ten years.

Suddenly the murders start again. Is it the same killer or a copycat? What does the killer REALLY want? 

Read on to find out!
