If You Go Down To The Woods Today . . . Grace MacBride, Annie Belinsky, and Deputy Sharon Mueller are driving from Minneapolis to Green Bay, Wisconsin, where Sharon believes a new serial killer is just warming up, about to terrorize the city if Grace’s software can’t identify him soon. A couple of detours later and the women find themselves deep in woodland where, to Annie’s citified horror, the car breaks down. They eventually stumble across Four Corners, a crossroads town where they hoped to find a land line and a mechanic. What they find instead is a ghost town where everything appears normal apart from the complete absence of life and severed phone lines in every building. When the three become witness to a horrifying double murder committed by soldiers who have closed the town to the outside world for reasons the women can’t begin to imagine, they find themselves running for their lives . . . With all the hallmarks that made ’Want to Play?’ and ’Live Bait’ so successful - crackling dialogue, great characters and striking pace - this next novel will take PJ Tracy to new levels.
