Dead by Morning
by Kayla Krantz

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

GENRE: new adult psychological thriller

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BLURB:

Obsession is deadly. No one learns that better than Luna Ketz, a pessimistic high school senior. She wishes more than anything to graduate but things don’t always go as planned. Luna quickly finds herself trapped in a web of lies and murders, spun by the least suspected person in her hometown. It’s not long before she realizes she’s being targeted by the person she despises most in the world. When Luna figures out who is behind the killings, things make a turn for the bizarre when she is contacted by a friend she has not heard from in years. It is then Luna realizes she is very much in danger, but although she can avoid the killer in reality, she cannot avoid him in her dreams.

Excerpt:

There had to be something in the house that would better explain him. If there was,

she would find it. She walked over to the beginning of the hall and set her hand against

the wall. Once she reached the bathroom, she peeked over her shoulder to make sure

Chance wasn’t paying attention. After a brief pause, she continued down the hallway.

All the doors along it were closed.


When she reached the end of the hallway, she turned to walk back toward the living

room, checking the doors as she did so. They were all locked, until she pushed on one

of them, and it swung open quietly on its hinges. Luna opened the door the rest of the

way and stepped inside the room. Like the living room, candles lit the small space. Her

eyes focused on two blood-red candles which sat in golden candle holders on the

floor. At the base of the holders sat random bones which she guessed had belonged to

the animals Chance had hunted.


The candles were lit—wax ran down them to drip onto the gold, looking like blood.

The two candles illuminated the wall above them, and Luna stared at it in horror; a

five- pointed star had been drawn on the wall in bright red.
