Showing results for "Darkest Hour" in Psychological

In her small hometown, librarian Ruth Cornier has always felt like an outsider, even as her beloved father rains fire-and-brimstone warnings from the pulpit at Holy Fire Baptist. Unfortunately for Ruth, the only things the townspeople fear more than the God and the Devil are the myths that haunt the area, like the story of the Low Man, a vampiric figure said to steal into sinners' bedrooms and kill them on moonless nights. When a skull is found deep in the swamp next to mysterious carved symbols, Bottom Springs is thrown into uproar.

Two women are missing already, snatched by a prowler in the night. Brilliant psychologist Christine Radcliffe fears she may be next—or at least that’s what she tells Detective Alan Jameson. But Jameson already has the prime suspect in his sights, and it’s someone much closer to Christine than she wants to admit. Who is she protecting? Meticulously crafted to deliver twist after breathtaking twist, this book was originally published as The Desire of the Moth.
