The Butcher

The Butcher

From the acclaimed author of Creep and Freak whom #1 bestselling author Jeffery Deaver praised as a â€œtop-of-the-line thriller writer,â€ a high-octane novel about lethal secrets that refuse to dieâ€”until they kill again.

A rash of grisly serial murders plagued Seattle until the infamous â€œBeacon Hill Butcherâ€ was finally hunted down and killed by police chief Edward Shank in 1985. Now, some thirty years later, Shank, retired and widowed, is giving up his large rambling Victorian house to his grandson Matt, whom he helped raise.

Settling back into his childhood home and doing some renovations in the backyard to make the house feel like his own, Matt, a young up-and-coming chef and restaurateur, stumbles upon a locked crate heâ€™s never seen before. Curious, he picks the padlock and makes a discovery so gruesome it will forever haunt himâ€¦ Faced with this deep, dark family secret, Matt must decide whether to keep what he knows buried in the past, go to the police, or take matters into his own hands.

Meanwhile Mattâ€™s girlfriend, Sam, has always suspected that her mother was murdered by the Beacon Hill Butcherâ€”two years after the supposed Butcher was gunned down. As she pursues leads that will prove her right, Sam heads right into the path of Mattâ€™s terrible secret.

â€œA tense, suspenseful, thoroughly creepy thrillerâ€ (Booklist), The Butcher will keep you guessing until the bitter, bloody end. Donâ€™t miss this â€œthrill ride that will have your attention from start to finishâ€ (Suspense Magazine).
