THE DEAD ROOM

The No. 1 Amazon.com Bestseller (US & UK)A young woman is found, brutally murdered and left on gruesome display in the “safety” of her own home. The atrocity kicks off an investigation into a bizarre string of increasingly disturbing murders, all believed to be perpetrated by someone of unprecedented savagery and cunning.As the city’s panic rises, civil attorney Teddy Mack is thrown headlong into the grisly homicide case—and into a world of dirty politics and corrupt justice, where deceptions are as deadly as a killer’s twisted secrets. Now, another woman is about to meet the same horrific fate as the others. To end a madman’s reign, Teddy must enter his maze—a place of unimaginable terror and shocking revelations.

FROM THE EDITORS

"With his second thriller, Los Angeles Times bestselling author, Robert Ellis, delivers an explosive read with full-blown characters caught in a world stacked with twists and turns and an emotional intensity that burns white-hot. THE DEAD ROOM serves as the introduction to the Lena Gamble novels, and remains a truly one of a kind find. This is a scary read. It's no wonder that THE DEAD ROOM has been translated into so many different languages, including French, three separate times."
