Roses Are Red

By Stephanie Hoffman McManus

When the peace of the Pacific Northwest is shattered by a string of brutal murders, coffee shop owner Nora Scott finds herself at the center of a nightmare she can't wake from.

Her best friend, Emily, has been missing for two weeks. While authorities try to reassure the community of Bellingham, Washington, that the killer isn't hunting in their town, the evidence and cryptic clues that begin appearing just for Nora say otherwise. Someone is watching her. Someone knows what she fears most. And someone is playing a game that's about to turn deadly.

As the body count rises, Nora's desperate search for answers pulls her toward a mysterious stranger, new to town. His calm strength draws her in, even as his secrets and his past make her question how much she can trust him.

Every step closer to the truth puts Nora in the killer's crosshairs.
Every heartbeat pulls her closer to a man she shouldn't want.

Because in this deadly game of obsession and revenge, finding Emily might mean losing herself.
