Water Marks (LP)

When Dale Donnahue brought an unmarked box to Rick Dante, he delivered more than the notebook inside it he dumped a nightmare on the Milford, Iowa, Chief of Police. The contents of that taunting notebook point an accusatory finger straight at Chief Dante with the brazen implication that he hasn t been doing his job. The cryptic caption on the title page says: Milford, Iowa: Unsolved Murders. The murderer must be a cocky dude with ice flowing through his veins. The notebook contains irrefutable evidence of five seemingly unrelated homicides: five obituaries matched to five signs which incorporate Milford s water tower into their sinister messages. Each sign follows the progression of the countdown to the grand finale: 1 down, 5 to go . . . 2 down, 4 to go . . . Rick and his police force must thaw five cold cases in search of clues. Unless they find the perpetrator of those heinous crimes, the execution of 6 down, 0 to go will stun the town. No one will feel safe anymore in Milford, Iowa.
