The Dead Room


Chestnut Hill is one of Philadelphia’s most upscale neighborhoods. But in one gleaming home, in a lavish bedroom, a young woman is found brutally murdered.


The atrocity kicks off an investigation by police and an overzealous DA 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, Teddy Mack, a civil attorney just out of law school, is thrown headlong into the grisly case—and into a world of corrupt justice where he quickly becomes the DA’s target.


But soon after, another young woman goes missing. A woman who might still be alive. And Teddy discovers something the police never guessed.


The serial killer has a secret. He’s collecting something. Something twisted. Something horrific and vile.


To end the madman’s reign, and with the police and DA in full pursuit, Teddy enters the killer’s maze—a place of unimaginable terror where human demons emerge—with a vengeance.
