Canyon Creek is a small town with a grand whoppin' population of 426 and sits about an hour and a half northeast of the capital city. It's settled in the southwestern part of the US; it's certainly not the prime place for murder to happen, not when everyone knows everyone! Yet, when the people of the small-town start discovering body parts in the canyon that runs behind their town, they can't make heads or tails of it.
No one around those parts was the murdering type and the small-town sheriff knows this goes beyond his limited expertise and they are forced to place a call to higher-up powers. The case file is handed off to the capable hands of Hank and Sam, but Hank is keeping a secret from his partner, and it might actually cause them unfound problems with this new case. To make matters worse with these small-town murders, there's no logic behind the murders; these body parts don't belong to anyone in town! Add in blasts from the pasts who are breathing down their necks and The Canyon Creek murders might just be their toughest case yet!

The Gentleman Killer
INTRODUCTION: Missing person reports were just piling up one after another these days. But none of the victims were found alive. After the killer got what he wanted from victim's family, the next day person would be found dead. People are starting to move out from the city. It's gotten worse as hours passed. Phones are ringing at the police stations and 911 calls are getting more and more desperate. Not many things were found out about this town's killer. But, the way people are describing him- yes him- shows that they all see him as an old man called the Gentleman. He got this name from the way he puts his deceased victims bodies. Lying on their back, carefully placed, hair brushed and clean, face without any makeup, but covered with black veil, white nightie with small bouquet in their arms that are placed on their chest. Beautifully horrific sight if you ask me. They all appeared to be women in their early or mid 20s, brunettes with blue eyes, skinny and average height. The Gentleman is described as someone in his late 30s or early 40s, is into art, but mostly sculptures as he shows by placing his victims in recognizable positions. On most of dead women's necks could be seen small tattoos that were assotiated with life and death- butterfly with its wings painted like skull. That was all that we knew of the Gentleman until something happened few days ago...Complete
