Lowcountry Crimes

Fifteen years ago, Charleston, South Carolina was home to one of the deadliest serial killers in American history. The Carolina Reaper took out 12 people, and he just so happened to be Andy Winslow's identical twin brother.

Dreams never stay dead in the low country, and for Detective Andy Winslow, those dreams might kill him As he's adjusting to life back home in Charleston, Andy's given a new case. A series of murders has started happening around town. There's no visible tie to them, and Andy can't seem to crack the case. Enter Destiny Reyes. She's from Charleston too, the hottest spa nd comer in country music, and she's been keeping a secret that just might blow the entire case wide open. If it doesn't get them killed first.

Ghost stories abound in the lowcountry, and Detective Andy Winslow is about to find himself in the center of one. Andy Winslow grew up hearing campfire tales of the Scarecrow; a monster that stalked the lowcountry's rural areas, killing people with a vengeance. Now, with farmers and their families around Charleston being murdered in record numbers, people start talking about the Scarecrow again. Andy doesn't believe in ghost stories, though. He knows that the sort of monster behind this is of the decidedly human variety, and it's his job to find them.

Faith is important in the low country, and Detective Andy Winslow is going to need all he can get When a priest shows up on his doorstep wanting to talk about something strange that happened to his serial killer brother, Andy doesn't think it's connected to the body he found washed up on the beach. But, when another attack happens that sets his brother loose on the streets and reveals a startling truth about the dead woman, Andy learns he couldn't have been more wrong.
