When a horror-loving radio show becomes the stage of a gruesome
murder, its host Tinsel Monroe is put next on the killer's list...
A fast paced, thrilling murder mystery novel, paying homage to slasher
films of the 90's, The Graveyard Shift is the perfect Halloween read
for fans of Riley Sager and Grady Hendrix.
Tinsel Munroe has busted her guts to get where she is. Yet her dream of
working in radio hasn't turned out to be everything she hoped it would.
Sure, she has her own show - aptly titled The Graveyard Shift - where
she celebrates the sounds of horror-cinema, but the wage is barely
enough to cover her rent and the midnight hours are putting a strain on
her relationship with her boyfriend. Even after three years at
Melbourne's coolest station, she's seemingly no closer to a prime-time
slot.
That is, until someone is murdered live on air.
Mistaking it for a Halloween prank, a visit from police informs Tinsel
that the hysterical call was - in fact - the real deal. She's freaked
out, but her true-crime obsessed sister Pandora is fascinated.
While detectives assure them the killer will soon be caught, the bodies
continue to drop with the killer striking in increasingly gruesome ways.
With a growing, macabre audience to her radio show, that potentially
includes the killer, Tinsel begins receiving strange messages over the
text-in lines. Her workplace, and even her home, are suddenly not the
sanctuaries she once thought.
Tinsel and her sister are left with no choice but to team up with
Detective James as they race to find the connection between her and the
culprit. The people she thought she could trust are now those she should
fear the most. In order to survive, Tinsel is going to have to listen to
more than just the airwaves...
