Skinned Deep: A Story of Crime and Desire

Rate this book
A regular guy heads to the remote mountains for a biking trip, and there he meets a beautiful woman who insists they ride together. After he's hit by a truck and nearly killed, he finds himself captive in a strange hospital, with a roommate who is bent on escape... even if it means murder.

Murder. Sex. Deception. What is going on in this strange place? The truth is far more than skin deep.

A short story of crime, desire, and regrets, in the vein of Twin Peaks and Twisted Pines.

15 pages, Kindle Edition

First published January 3, 2015
