She writes about real-life monsters.
He is one.
Ella Vale's bestseller dissects serial killers with chilling precision...until she gets the details wrong. The Midnight Sculptor doesn't carve symbols into flesh the way she described. He doesn't position his victims' hands like she wrote. And he doesn't leave lilies on their chests for the reasons she imagined.
He knows. Because he's the one who does it.
Now he's watching her. Studying her. Leaving messages that prove he knows where she lives, what she writes, how she thinks. He doesn't want to kill her...not yet. He wants something far more dangerous: to teach her the truth. To show her his work. To make her understand.
Ella thought she was writing fiction based on facts. But she's become his obsession, his muse, his next masterpiece. And the closer she gets to his world, the harder it becomes to remember which one of them is really in control.
Some monsters hide in shadows. Others step into the light and ask you to follow.
