A serial killer's work has been discovered in Chalk Valley, BC and the town is crying out for blood and a quick resolution. Yet the task force created to catch this monster is bogged down in political posturing, intra-departmental communication issues, and a man who cannot overcome his demons. Thus the investigation is failing to discover important clues and patterns while the psychopath continues to abduct and kill young girls. When Sergeant Kreaver makes an important discovery, it is pushed under the rug and he's forced to go rogue and investigate on his own. Can he take down the serial killer without back-up or will he succumb to the deadly game they play?`Chalk Valley' will give you the major creeps! I am a big fan of serial killer movies, TV shows, and books. `Chalk Valley' does not disappoint! The author has created beautifully flawed characters who are very believable. We are introduced to the killer in the beginning, but we have to watch painful time tick away as the police are unable to see the connections and put them together to discover the killer's identity. Mr. Johnstone is devilishly creative and has done extensive research to create the terrifyingly macabre and realistic story. Definitely keep the lights on when reading `Chalk Valley'!!
