The Scream Catcher

LIFE DOESN'T END WITH A WHIMPER.
IT ENDS WITH A SCREAM.

Jude Parish is haunted by demons.

Not memories. Not regrets.
But living nightmares-black-eyed, razor-toothed fears that ended his career as a violent crimes cop and nearly destroyed him.

Now a former detective turned bestselling true-crime author, Jude is trying to rebuild his life in the quiet Adirondack town of Lake George, New York, where he lives with his pregnant wife and young son. He believes he's finally escaped the darkness.

Then the screams begin.

When Jude becomes an unwilling witness to a chilling kill game, he learns the killer records the screams of his victims before executing them-and considers terror the ultimate prize. Forced to confront his paralyzing fear, Jude agrees to serve as the state's star witness.

But the arrest is only Level One.

What Jude doesn't realize is that the killer has designed a first-person game with new players-and Jude's family is next. As the body count rises and the rules turn deadlier, Jude must face the demons he's spent a lifetime running from... or watch everyone he loves be consumed by them.

Dark, relentless, and psychologically explosive, Scream Catcher is a pulse-pounding thriller packed with shocking twists, brutal stakes, and non-stop action.
