LOVER'S PEAK
A Scare at Bedtime Book Series
What starts as a romantic evening becomes a night of terror.
Mary Stenkirt and Jack Morples have only been dating for three weeks, but it already feels like something special. When Jack suggests driving up to Lover's Peak, the secluded clifftop overlook where generations of couples have gone to be alone, Mary eagerly agrees. Under the stars, with the ocean crashing two hundred feet below, they lose themselves in each other, talking and kissing as the hours slip away unnoticed.
By 2:00 AM, they realize they're completely alone. The other couples have left. And Jack's car won't start.
Jack decides to walk to a nearby house to call for help, promising Mary he'll be back in forty-five minutes. She waits in the locked car, trying to ignore the sounds outside, the growing isolation, the creeping sense that something is watching from the darkness.
Jack never comes back.
What Mary doesn't know is that earlier that day, a patient escaped from Blackwood Sanitarium, a man with a twisted belief that human faces are masks hiding the monsters beneath. A man who has killed before. A man who is now at Lover's Peak, watching, waiting.
Lover's Peak is a heart-pounding thriller that transforms a romantic legend into a nightmare. From the author of the A Scare at Bedtime series comes a tale of young love cut short, survival against impossible odds, and the question that haunts every horror story: what would you do to stay alive?
"Some places hold too much darkness. Some places, the dead don't rest easy. And some places are best left alone."
