Bonded By Death

Dr. Warren Gates has just started his dream job; cutting up dead bodies. After years of studying and training, the role of King County Medical Examiner is finally his. And with it, comes n active serial killer whose calling card is an eerie branding along with removing his victims’ fingers and toes with professional precision.

The killer’s skill immediately peaks Warren’s interest, but he’s quickly reminded of his predecessors’ famous rule. The medical examiner is concerned with how murders are committed, not the Why. Those words of advice become harder to live by when the killer reveals himself to Warren in a desire to become friends.

The relationship also comes with a unique offer. If Warren can find out why they’re killing then the murder spree will cease at Warren’s request. Warren must decide if he’s willing to break the medical examiner’s cardinal rule with the reward of stopping the carnage. But, there could be a more ominous consequence; the number of corpses that might trickle into his lab before he can solve the puzzle.
