Five Will Die

A small-town sheriff with a panic disorder must solve a series of murders before the killer claims his fifth victim and disappears forever. A serial killer thriller that will keep you guessing until the last page.

Tim Burke is the sheriff of Lincoln, Ohio, a small town where nothing happens. That all changes when he finds a chilling note claiming five people will die in town. At first, Burke and his two deputies dismiss it as a prank by local teenagers. This is idyllic Lincoln, Ohio, after all.

Then the bodies begin turning up.

Consumed by the murder investigation, Burke uncovers a link to another Ohio town, where a killer left a similar note, claimed five victims, and vanished without a trace. Burke also discovers something else. His panic disorder, which had been dormant since retiring from Cleveland's gruesome homicide division three years ago, has returned more paralyzing than ever.

Can Burke overcome his debilitating condition and stop the killer before he claims his fifth and final victim and leaves Lincoln forever?

Five Will Die is the sixth novel from Shamus Award-winning author Trace Conger.
