His Last Scare
(2026)(The eighth book in the Sheriff Ray Duke Small Town Mystery series)
A novel by Kelly Cross
He was murdered in a room full of people. Every one of them was wearing a mask.
A town councilman is found stabbed to death inside the Halloween haunted house—killed in plain sight, surrounded by costumes and screams, in the one place on earth where no one notices a man dying.
Sheriff Ray Duke has a town full of suspects and not one of them is telling the truth.
A widow with a missing hour she'll go to jail before she explains. Her mother, guarding a secret that could destroy them both. A recluse on the mountain the whole county calls a witch—with every reason to want the dead man gone.
But the deeper Duke digs, the more the truth slips. Every confession is false. Every suspect is protecting someone. And a federal case he can't talk about is turning his own town against his badge.
Because in Blue Sky County, everyone is protecting someone.
One of them killed for it.
And the killer is the one person no one is looking at.
Fast-paced. Heart-pounding. Impossible to put down. If you love small-town mysteries with a flawed, faith-driven hero, twists you won't see coming, and a killer hiding in plain sight—this one is for you.
Genre: Inspirational
