Publisher's Synopsis
Sheriff Matthew Klein is dumbfounded, not even his past as a homicide detective had prepared him for this gruesome scene. This was more than murder; what had happened was abominable. Hanging above a bed, in what appears to be spider's silk, are the naked dead bodies of a husband and wife. The circumstances of their deaths are beyond belief. Their bodies hollow and sunken, it is almost as if something has sucked out their insides. This is not something that he felt could happen in Blackstone Pass. This is not a place where people are murdered. It is a world famous resort town located on the pristine Blackstone Lake, summertime home and playground to the rich and famous. But it is not summer right now - it is the dead of winter.
