Valentines and Villains
(2024)(The first book in the Killer Love Story series)
A Novella by Riley Blake
Congratulations, you old coot. You’ve reached the end of the line. It’s all downhill from here. Well done.
Jack Dawson has reached the last years of his life.\
Retirement approached with the speed and precision of a locomotive train. Unfortunately, his daughter might as well have been the conductor. She stood at the ready to arrange for her dad’s posh retirement, which included a lavish Seaside Village home. Located in a quaint town filled with men and women around his same age, Jack’s new community promises a glamourous retirement life.
Lucky for Jack, it’s all a façade.
Twenty-four hours after Jack's untimely move, there’s a murderer on the loose. Some believe his neighbor is the guilty party while others point to a local social butterfly, a likely choice to pull off the perfect crime. One thing is certain—there’s a killing spree unraveling faster than anyone can pull the bodies into the morgue. And the motive seemingly churns around the romance in the air.
