Willow Close

Kess Hawkins just wants to play video games, eat pizza rolls, and hang out with her cat. But when a determined journalist comes asking about Kess' past, she is drawn into a thirty-year old mystery. A childhood photo sparks Kess' s memories of an abandoned orphanage called Willow Close, as well as a brother she never knew she had and a boy she once shared a bond with despite his dark and troubled history. Meanwhile, a serial killer dubbed the Family Man is working his way down the coast and Kess' s home of New Haven lies directly in his path.

Willow Close is an old-school slasher with two kick-ass, contemporary heroines. A good old-fashioned mystery wrapped in a creepy old orphanage, with cosmic horror, a monstrous killer, and several lovely cats.
