Pink Rose Killer : "Justice Has Scent and Blood Isn't The Only Thing That Stains."

by Dominique Christina

A petal for every secret. A Rose for every sin.

Detroit nurse, Layla Hamilton is a devoted wife and mother, a quiet healer, and a woman with haunting past. By day, she comforts the broken. By Night she hides her own fractures, especially from her husband Jonathan.

When A string of high-profile suicides begins to rock the city, each crime scene eerily marked by a single pink rose petal. Jonathan starts seeing patterns others don't. Victims with sealed abuse records, rose petals where they don't belong, and whispers of justice that never saw a courtroom.

Welcome to the twisted blooming world of Pink Rose Killer. Where justice wears perfume, petals hide bullets, and nothing is what its seems.

A haunting psychological thriller about rage, repression, and revenge, Pink Rose Killer grips you from the first page and doesn’t let go.

🩸 If you love smart, emotional thrillers with powerful female leads and jaw-dropping twists, this book is for you.
