The Dark Ones

DETECTIVE MICHAEL RICHARDS WAS DEAD FOR TEN MINUTES.

Three months later, he awakens from a coma to discover that the impossible murders he had been investigating have stopped. Twelve victims. Twelve hearts removed. Eyes turned milky white. Bodies left with no fingerprints, no trace evidence, and no explanation.

Whatever was killing them seems to have disappeared.

UNTIL MICHAEL RETURNS HOME.

When another body is discovered near his Chicago neighborhood, bearing the same horrifying signature, Michael is pulled back into a case that nearly destroyed him. But this time, the investigation feels personal. Shadows move where nothing should be. The dead begin appearing to him. And whatever is hunting within his city is drawing ever closer to those he loves.

Michael thought coming back meant he had been given a second chance.

Now he fears something followed him—and that his death was only the beginning.

EVIL DOESN'T DIE. IT WAITS.
