Redheads

by Jonathan Moore

  The loud dull report of a shotgun blast sounded from the roof.

  Then another.

  Something hit the other side of the stagecoach like a boulder, knocking the wagon into a veering fishtail.

  The old man released a horrible high-pitched scream of agony as his body was dragged off the roof seat and smashed against the door in a blur of cloth and red flesh with a bone-snapping thud bang crack.

  The hooker saw the driver torn from the carriage and was screaming hysterically now. Whistler had to slap her silly to shut her up as he crawled across the seat to look out the other window. He fired two shots blind into the blackness, hopefully at least wounding a few of the things.

  With a terrible crash, something landed on the roof so heavy it cracked the wooden ceiling.

  Redheads

  Jonathan Moore

  A killer far worse than insane.

  Chris Wilcox has been searching for years, so he knows a few things about his wife’s killer. Cheryl Wilcox wasn’t the first. All the victims were redheads. All eaten alive and left within a mile of the ocean. The trail of death crosses the globe and spans decades.

  The cold trail catches fire when Chris and two other survivors find a trace of the killer’s DNA. By hiring a cutting-edge lab to sequence it, they make a terrifying discovery. The killer is far more dangerous than they ever guessed. And now they’re being hunted by their own prey.
