Justin Cooper isn't the typical Sheriff's applicant in the small West Virginia town of Slate Creek. Five years ago, Cooper resigned from the FBI after losing his arm and gaining a gruesome facial scar in the line of duty. Still, Cooper's experience and intense drive lands him the appointment.

The new Sheriff soon learns of the twenty-year old unsolved Hopkins murders. Incensed with the shoddy police investigation reports, Cooper vows to bring the murderer to justice. Uncovering new leads for the age-old case is daunting. After piecing together meticulous details of the macabre case, Cooper discovers more unexplained deaths and long-hidden remains. Through masterful detective work, the hunt leads to a frantic pursuit of the killer.

Hidden Horrors, the latest Don Stoddard novel, is his richest and most intense suspense thriller yet.
