The dark inside - Rod Reynolds

1946, Texarkana: a town on the border of Texas and Arkansas. Disgraced
New York reporter Charlie Yates has been sent to cover the story of a
spate of brutal murders - young couples who've been slaughtered at a
local date spot. Charlie finds himself drawn into the case by the
beautiful and fiery Lizzie, sister to one of the victims, Alice - the
only person to have survived the attacks and seen the killer up close.


But Charlie has his own demons to fight, and as he starts to dig into
the murders he discovers that the people of Texarkana have secrets that
they want kept hidden at all costs. Before long, Charlie discovers that
powerful forces might be protecting the killer, and as he investigates
further his pursuit of the truth could cost him more than his job...

Loosely based on true events, The Dark Inside is
a compelling and pacy thriller that heralds a new voice in the genre.
It will appeal to fans of RJ Ellory, Tom Franklin, Daniel Woodrell and True Detective.
