It's autumn in Maine again. Maine once again blanketed in red. Not by the leaves. Not by the lobsters. Not by the sunrise...but by the blood of eight young women. Former homicide detective Thomas Prescott is reluctant to read the bestselling book "Eight in October," a true-crime thriller based on a string of murders occurring throughout October of the past year. After all, it was his case, and he doesn't need to be reminded of the gruesome details. "The New York Times" dubbed the serial killer, Tristen Grayer, "THE MAINEIAC." Grayer is allegedly dead, but only Prescott knows the truth--Grayer is alive and lurking in the shadows. On October 1st, the anniversary of the first murder, Tristen resurfaces, killing someone special from Prescott's past. Suddenly, it's "dé jà vu" for Prescott--except this time--the women closest to him begin to fall victim at the hands of Grayer. With the help of his former flame, medical examiner Dr. Caitlin Dodds, and "Eight in October" author, Alex Tooms, Prescott must race against the clock to stop Tristen from completing his encore. But time is running out...

"In this town, nobody goes missing for long . . . Sooner or later, a body is found." In March 1990, family man Barry Jones departed his small town home and headed to work in the city. He never arrived. Now seven years later, to collect his life insurance, his wife wants the courts to declare her absentee husband dead once and for all. Enter P.I. Steve Cassidy. Hired to take a fresh look at this cold case, Cassidy must try to uncover new clues to Jones' disappearance. In addition to seeking out the truth, Cassidy must overcome another major obstacle: the skeptical locals in his former hometown of Delta. Steve Cassidy, a disgraced ex-cop with a broken soul, had his work cut out for him. He knew this time around he had one final shot at redemption, and could blame no one but himself if he failed to solve his first big case.
