Can’t Wait Wednesday: Senseless by Ronald Malfi

CWW

“Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme that was originally created by Breaking the Spine.  Unfortunately Breaking the Spine are no longer hosting so I’m now linking my posts up to Wishful Endings Can’t Wait Wednesday. Don’t forget to stop over, link up and check out what books everyone else is waiting for.  If you want to take part, basically, every Wednesday, we highlight a book that we’re really looking forward to.  This week my book is: Senseless by Ronald Malfi.  A must read author for me so I was super excited to see this title.  Check out the cover (I’m not sure if this is the final cover but  I think so) and description below:

A page-turning, supernaturally-tinged LA puzzle-box thriller – Zodiac with teeth, from the Bram Stoker Award-nominated and bestselling author of Come with Me. Perfect for fans of Riley Sager and Lauren Beukes.

What do you see…?

When the mutilated body of a young woman is discovered in the desert on the outskirts of Los Angeles, the detective assigned to the case can’t deny the similarities between this murder and one that occurred a year prior. Media outlets are quick to surmise this is the work of a budding serial killer, but Detective Bill Renney is struggling with an altogether different a secret that keeps him tethered to the husband of the first victim.

What do you hear…?

Maureen Park, newly engaged to Hollywood producer Greg Dawson, finds her engagement party crashed by the arrival of Landon, Greg’s son. A darkly unsettling young man, Landon invades Maureen’s new existence, and the longer he stays, the more convinced she becomes that he may have something to do with the recent murder in the high desert.

What do you feel…?

Toby Kampen, the self-proclaimed Human Fly, begins an obsession over a woman who is unlike anyone he has ever met. A woman with rattlesnake teeth and a penchant for biting. A woman who has trapped him in her spell. A woman who may or may not be completely human.

In Ronald Malfi’s brand-new thriller, these three storylines converge to create a tapestry of deceit, distrust, and unapologetic horror. A brand-new novel of dark suspense set in the City of Angels, as only “horror’s Faulkner” can tell it.

Expected publication : April 2025

    Intriguing for sure!
    I have an unrelated question: are you going to host Countdown to 2025 this year? If yes, are you going to use the same prompts? New ones?
    I’d love to participate and get more organized than for my first time last year

      Hi, yes, I’ll be doing my Countdown to 2025 this year. I was going to use the same prompts, the idea being that I will mostly use books from the current year and so it’s just another way of highlighting some of my more recent reads – that being said you could choose books from whenever you want, no set rules.

      I hope you join in again.

    I’m glad he is writing consistently, I don’t know what I’d do if I didn’t have a Malfi book to look forward to! 😀

      I know, I feel the same. I’m always so excited when one of his books pop up.
