On a late autumn night, Deputy Hank Murphy and his partner are hot on the trail of poachers. After cornering them, the deputies discover something terrible. Something terrifying. Something that leaves three men dead, a town demanding answers, and a Sheriff that is happy to just sweep it all under the rug.
Unable to find the information or support he needs, Hank turns to medical examiner Julie Black and university professor Jeremiah Besson to help him discover what killed his partner, and how to stop it, before the whole town is gripped in terror.
Set in a small town in the American Midwest, Fear in the Blood is a thrilling creature-feature novel by C.M.W. Hawkins that will have you locking all your doors, turning on the lights, and doing your best to stay as calm as possible. There’s no telling what might be scratching at your door, eager for a quick bite.
