The Dead Letters
The Dead Letters | Tom Piccirilli
1 post | 2 read
BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Tom Piccirilli's The Last Kind Words. Five years ago, Eddie Whitt’s daughter Sarah became the victim of a serial killer known as Killjoy, and Whitt vowed to hunt him down—no matter what the cost. But the police have given up. And Killjoy has stopped killing…and in some bizarre act of repentance has begun kidnapping abused infants and leaving them with the parents of his original victims. The only clues to Killjoy’s identity lie in a trail of taunting letters. And even as they lead Whitt to a deadly cult—and closer to his prey—he begins to suspect that, like his wife, he’s losing his grip on reality: Sarah’ s dollhouse is filled with eerie activity, as if her murder never occurred. As dark forces rise around him, Whitt must choose—between believing that evil can repent…and stepping into a trap set by a killer who may know the only way to save Whitt’s soul.

(2006) It's a horror novel of the kind I call "magic psycho," where no supernatural element is obviously intended, but the monster is a psychopath for whom the usual laws of common sense and physics are relaxed without explanation, as if being crazy were a superpower. I dislike magic psycho books, so am not a reliable judge of whether this is a good one. YMMV.

This was a #ReadYourKindle book for July.

bthegood “magic psycho“ is a new genre term for me - I love it and the definition “usual laws of common sense/physics relaxed without explanation - crazy as a superpower'“ - I'm with you on this genre - I need magic or psycho not the combination 😂 4mo
