Standalone urban fantasy novel. No cliff hanger.
EXCERPT
The most innocent things could hold more darkness than I ever wanted to see.
Today's example: Takeout.
What could be so terrible about takeout? Normally, it was awesome. I lived on the stuff. I read the menus like the bible. But this wasn't that kind of takeout.
I stared at the Styrofoam containers on the table. My stomach was already cringing, looking for a place to hide. The containers gleamed virgin white under the fluorescent lights of the FBI conference room, but their contents were not quite so pure.
Each carton had a handwritten label on top. One read, Marion—bright and charming. Another read Stacey—good body. The last, Eileen—agreeable.
The writing was large with strong vertical strokes and half-closed loops. I wondered what a handwriting analyst would make of it.
Was there a particular flourish that indicated someone was a cannibal?
