The Devil Lives in Lawrence - S.K. Epperson


Click on cover for more info!


Synopsis:
A routine real estate showing in the history-rich college town of Lawrence, Kansas takes a dark turn and brings Eve Mellor and Shawnee pilot Nate Catton together to face events littered with symbols too confusing to understand--and a few decapitated bodies. Neither wants to believe the bloodshed is attached to him or her, but the evidence proving one of them right is confounded by a meddling detective, a missing head, and a stalker who can't take no for an answer. Add to the mix a theory about crime that cost Eve her job and follows her everywhere, bringing back people from her past that she'd rather not think about, let alone face, particularly when Nate keeps bringing up nearby Stull, and the nation's fascination with the place believers call one of the "Seven doorways to hell."
