A cemetery. A coffin. A dead woman clutching a blood-red rose.

When private investigator Angelus Walker stumbles upon Alice Downhardt's body in an open grave, he thinks he's found a one-off killer with a twisted signature. But Alice isn't the first—and she won't be the last. Someone is collecting victims, arranging them like art pieces, each one posed with clay-stained skin and a crimson rose.

As the body count rises and the police remain baffled, the Coffin Maker's dark creations begin to consume Angelus. Then his girlfriend Kelly disappears.

Now Angelus has twenty-four hours to crack the mystery—before Kelly becomes the Coffin Maker's next masterpiece.
