Book 1: 1989: What Happens When A Killer Returns For Revenge

In 1989, a brutal serial killer terrorized the small town of Monroe, Georgia. Twelve victims were left in his wake, each marked by a horrifying calling card—a single note reading "A penny for your thoughts". When the case finally closed with a conviction, the town exhaled, convinced the nightmare was over and the culprit was locked away.

They couldn't have been more wrong.

Decades later, attorney Nicole Jones has built a successful career and life far removed from the horror of that era. But her world shatters when her husband is brutally murdered. The crime scene doesn't just mimic the original Penny Murders—it echoes every single detail, down to the chilling signature note. Driven by grief and a desperate need for answers, Nicole teams up with local law enforcement to dig into the past. What she uncovers is a dangerous truth Monroe worked for thirty years to bury: the wrong man was convicted in 1989, and the real killer never left.

Worse still, someone else has been waiting in the shadows—a quiet force operating from the inside, fueled by a deep-seated desire for vengeance. Caught between an active killer hiding in plain sight and a dark reckoning decades in the making, Nicole must navigate a web of corruption, hidden secrets, and deadly cover-ups before she becomes the final victim.
