Description
You’ve seen the movies. Now survive the horror.
Someone is stalking the streets of London, and the murders aren’t merely gruesome. Each one recreates a notorious death scene from the history of slasher movies.
Detective Megan Hudson isn’t impressed by horror-film trivia. She believes in evidence, facts, and good old-fashioned police work. But Damian Douglas sees something she doesn’t. A shy, gay writer with an encyclopedic love of slashers, Damian realizes that the killings are connected.
Thrown together against their will, the detective and the horror fan must decipher the killer’s twisted cinematic message before the body count rises again. But when the killer turns his attention toward them, the investigation becomes something much more frightening: they are trapped inside the story.
Can Megan and Damian solve the case before the final reel, or will they become the latest victims in the killer’s personal tribute to horror cinema?
Campy, bloody, funny, queer, and packed with movie references, The Movies Made Me Do It combines a murder mystery with slasher-film mayhem for readers who like their detective fiction with a generous dose of cinematic bloodshed.
