Gritty, Dark, and Quirky. Scream City is an earned moniker for Walker’s Point due to the murders that occurred there years ago and after the serial killer who caused the chaos was shockingly discovered. Alice chose to stay rooted in the community that her grandfather terrorized. Just when Alice thinks she and the other residents may be able to overcome that tainted past, a new wave of murder arrives. New bodies, a new killer, and an old secret have Alice taking a closer look at her past and the place she calls home.
I recommend this book to fans of slow-burn murder mysteries, midwestern noir, cold-case investigations, dark family secrets, and ghost stories.
I thank NetGalley and the publisher for an advance copy of Scream City for my unbiased evaluation. 3 stars
