    A paranormal serial killer thriller that’ll keep you turning the pages. 
    Be careful what you dream when murder is on your mind. 
    My name is Alice, and I’m a sixteen-year-old ghost. No, I’m not actually dead, but I was born blind. The sad thing is the world’s more blind to me than I am to it. 
    That is, until the day he noticed me. A bully. He ruined my life and turned my dreams into nightmares, so what could I do? The same thing any girl my age would do—I wished he’d die. 
    Then… he turns up dead. Naturally, I freaked out. Am I to blame? Did my nightmare kill him? Would anyone believe me if I confessed? 
    It’s absurd. I know it. Nightmares don’t come true… do they? 
    Birth of a Killer is the suspenseful prequel novella to The Braille Killer. If you like unique sleuths, origin stories, and a hint of the supernatural, you’ll love Daniel Kuhnley’s nail-biting tale.

    Ever since the Big Uneasy unleashed vampires, werewolves, and other undead denizens on the world, it’s been hell being a detective—especially for zombie PI Dan Chambeaux.  
    Taking on the creepiest of cases in the Unnatural Quarter with a human lawyer for a partner and a ghost for a girlfriend, Chambeaux redefines “dead on arrival.” But just because he was murdered doesn’t mean he’d leave his clients in the lurch. Besides, zombies are so good at lurching. 
    Now he’s back from the dead and back in business—with a caseload that’s downright unnatural. A resurrected mummy is suing the museum that put him on display. Two witches, victims of a curse gone terribly wrong, seek restitution from a publisher for not using “spell check” on its magical tomes. And he’s got to figure out a very personal question: who killed him? 
    For Dan Chambeaux, it’s all in a day’s work. (Still, does everybody have to call him “Shamble”?) 
    Funny, fresh, and irresistible, this cadaverous caper puts the PI in RIP … with a vengeance.
