Bookish Blerd

Re-read.

Things continue to go bad within the town of Blackstone.  The local family-run, independent bank is in the midst of an audit, which has put a halt on the renovation of the old asylum into a shopping center.  Which the town desperately needs.  Jules Hartwick, who's family had opened a century ago, had been fairly positive about the outcome of the audit, as he hadn't done anything illegal, only gave out loans to some townsfolk in need that other banks wouldn't have.  Plus his daughter was getting married to a man he more than approved of, someone who believed in banking the way he and his ancestors did, someone who would hopefully take over running the bank when he was ready to retire, thus keeping it in the family.  Life was good.

But the Hartwicks have been targeted by the dark figure, who leaves a present in the car of Jules' wife Madeline.  Jules found the locket wrapped up in his wife's car.  As soon as he touched the locket something within him snapped.  He accused his wife of having an affair and goes on an insane rampage.  Before the end, he sends a message of warning to Oliver Metcalf that evil was all around them and that it needed to be stopped before it killed them all.

Yeah, lots more people are gonna die!  This series is very creepy and equally thrilling.
