Midnight Bleeds Black

He wore the perfect mask. Until the mask became real.

Thomas Vale has lived two lives for over a decade: one as a husband, father, and respected legal consultant—another as the Midnight Reaper, a calculated killer with a ritualized pattern that’s left over a hundred victims across the country.

When FBI profiler Evelyn Hart begins connecting the dots, Thomas’s balance starts to fracture. And when he turns his obsession toward Evelyn, it sets off a chain of events that threatens to expose him—and destroy the people closest to him.

Told through alternating perspectives—killer, profiler, and the woman who unknowingly lived beside the monster—Midnight Bleeds Black is a haunting, atmospheric psychological thriller that explores:

• 
  The twisted logic of a killer who sees ritual in murder
• 
  The emotional cost of survival for the ones left behind
• 
  And the terrifying question: what if the person you love most is hiding the darkest truth of all?

Years later, Claire Vale has tried to rebuild her life. But when the Reaper’s signature returns, she must face the monster again—and this time, stop him for good.

For fans of The Silence of the Lambs, Sharp Objects, and Criminal Minds, this novel is a tense, character-driven descent into obsession, survival, and retribution.
