John Stallings is on a mission to find a missing college student. The detective’s task hits close to home, since his own 16 year old daughter has been missing for the past three years. Now as he finds new clues to the missing frat boy’s disappearance, he finds that his daughter had known the missing young man, leaving more questions than answers. As John delves deeper into the mystery, a serial killer is on the loose and not just any killer, but a woman on a mission to murder fraternity brothers. As the bodies begin to pile up, John Stallings follows the bloody trail that reaches deep into the heart of sadistic revenge.

"The Perfect Scream" by James Andrus is a riveting read with Detective John Stalling at the helm. This twisted thriller takes you on a bumpy ride through the life of a detective and his painful task of looking for his missing daughter while trying to solve a blossoming serial nightmare. Lynn is sadistic in her pleasure of killing and hearing her victim’s desperate screams as she finds new and clever ways to watch them die. But John will stop at nothing to reveal the evildoer in their midst, uncovering every aspect of the killer’s identity. Even more chilling is the reason behind the murders. "The Perfect Scream" is a perfect thriller to stimulate the appetite of suspense fans. A good read by a talented writer.
