Dead Before Dying
Author: Kerry Schafer

Twisting and eerie, sharp and unforgettable, DEAD BEFORE DYING brings a heroine worthy of Sue Grafton to a terror worthy of Dean Koontz. — In this supernatural thriller, shot through with biting wit, Maureen Keslyn checks herself in to Shadow Valley Manor to recuperate and rehabilitate from her last job. There, she runs afoul of the stern directo... more »r and makes friends with some of the other residents, mostly older, all harboring either a secret or a grudge. With secrets of her own, like why she has her own Federal Agent checking up on her, and how she injured herself in the first place, Maureen fits right in, even as she sticks out like a thorn.

But Shadow Valley isn?t just for rest?Maureen is working undercover, seeking to find and eradicate whatever forces are picking off the residents (and staff) at a grisly clip. With her resources dwindling one death at a time, and unnatural forces seething to rise up once more, Maureen?s experience fighting the supernatural will be her only hope to destroy a clever and powerful evil?and her only chance at surviving it. She'll need people as paranoid as she is?from the sheriff, to the undertaker's daughter, to a cook whose knife skills in the kitchen could prove deadly out of it?if she is going to bring rest to the weary, and peace to the dead...
