🎉🎁Congratulations to new crime author Raúl Quintana Selleras – his first thriller, Count to Ten, has just arrived!👏📚 The story focuses on an artist called Evan Morris, who set out to shock the world, and his brother, a cop investigating a brutal series of murders by ‘The Chaos Killer’. When Evan is taken captive by a mysterious culprit, he’s given a series of boxes, one at a time. Inside each one is something that questions who he is, what he’s done and the stories he tells himself… And each is part of a puzzle unlike any you've come across before. 😬 It’s quite the setup – definitely creepy and very different to so many other serial killer stories.
