As Christmas approaches a terrifying killer must be stopped . . .

As the snow starts to fall, the mutilated body of a young woman is discovered on a construction site.

Then the demolition of the old Chase Asylum reveals further human remains.

It starts to become clear that there's a link between the two deaths . . .

And perhaps also to the asylum's old warden, who disappeared decades earlier.

Detective Jake Austin is on the hunt for a clever, twisted killer, and it's going to be anything but a peaceful Christmas time . . .
