In murder…

The final sounds Dean Wilson hears certainly are a clock striking twelve and a killer’s taunting words. And his death is merely the first. One by one, victims are stalked and shot at close range. Just the killer understands their sins, and who’ll be the next to die at midnight?

And in life…

In the ten years since her Hollywood career imploded, Lorie Hammonds has generated a good life in her Alabama hometown. When the 1st death threat comes, she assumes it’s a tale. Then she gets another. Sheriff Mike Birkett, her high school sweetheart, offers prevented Lorie since she came back to Dunmore, but when investigators uncover her connection to a string of latest murders, he’s drawn into a case that’s terrifyingly personal.

Timing is everything.

With every murder, the killer sides closer. Soon Lorie’s will be the last name left on his list. Her only hope is normally to unearth a fatal secret-before the clock operates out once and for all.
