Free Crime Fiction: Carnies and Wildcats: Ulciscor

carnies
Murder and Revenge in the Deep South

In November 1980, one week after the crosstown competitors squared off for their last game of the season, someone raised the stakes beyond the realm of petty vandalism and theft and committed a cruel, monstrous act. The carnival was in town with its rides, games, and sideshows and was finishing its last night in Valdosta before returning to Florida for the winter.

After the carnival closed for the night, people leaving the back gate discovered twelve-year-old Allison Pritchard’s bloody, lifeless body in front of the back gate’s ticket booth. Her throat was cut from ear to ear. Hanging around her neck was a sign, painted in her own blood:

“We Hate Carnies and Wildcats”

The murder was never solved. Thirty years later a mysterious man buys an old downtown hotel, and for some citizens of this small city things will never be the same. Free on Kindle.
