"An inspired premise... There are legions of readers who eat this stuff up." — Geoff Johnston, UK Horror Scene "Jackson lures readers in and holds them, which is always a sign of good writing filled with experience with the genre." — J Cheiser, Online Book Club "A breath of fresh air... pokes playfully at the slasher movie formula, while at the same time following its traditional course of kill-investigate-kill-reveal. You won’t be disappointed." — Midnight Movie Gay "Fast paced, and gripping right from the start, Slasher is sure to please any fan of crime and horror novels." — Michael Swanson, Farlight Press "I was hooked, 8/10" — Kyle Lafreniere, Horror Shoot A serial killer in Los Angeles. A string of ever more famous victims. A sergeant out of his depth. After a body is found on his duty, Sergeant Joshua Matthews is handed his first true homicide, one he has no choice but to accept. With no motive, no clues and zero real suspects, the police are getting nowhere, until another body turns up. It’s not in his jurisdiction but there are striking similarities between the two crimes. On his captain’s orders, Joshua finds himself temporarily transferred to LAPD Homicide. It seems he might be dealing with a serial killer, one targeting slasher movie actresses from the infamous horror studio, Hitlist Pictures. As the evidence starts pointing towards someone connected to the studio, Joshua and his new partner Detective Crawford face a race against time to solve the mystery before Hitlist premieres its brand new and highly anticipated horror thriller, Slasher. The film's lead and Hollywood's newest rising star, Kiralee Martinson, surrounded by police, is adapting quickly to the instant fame and pressure of becoming a film star, but nothing can prepare her for a violent finale to the killers' plans as she finds herself directly in the cross hairs in this tense and brutal thriller.
