The Night Crawler

Some killers hunt for blood. This one hunts for justice.

The body floats in a bathtub of bleach, drained white as bone. FBI Special Agent Kelly Sandling stares at what remains of Baltimore’s latest victim and knows the media will scream “vampire.” But the truth is worse.

This isn’t about blood. It’s about punishment.

While tabloids fuel citywide panic, Sandling discovers the killer’s real target: the city’s most decorated detectives. Men who built careers on solved cases. Men whose failures came back to haunt them.

Now someone’s making sure they never forget.

Separated from partner Augustine Carver, Sandling must navigate Baltimore’s corrupt police force alone. Every cop she interviews could be the next victim. Every case file she opens reveals another covered-up mistake.

And somewhere in the shadows, the Night Crawler watches her every move.

He’s been planning this for years. The detectives were just practice.

Sandling and Carver are the real prize.
