On the northern Outer Banks looms an old hunting lodge known as the Whalehead Club. Less than a quarter mile away deep in the marsh along the Currituck Sound lies the body of a young woman. Someone has killed and craves to kill again.

Byron Butler, a Presbyterian minister, and his family travel with the Mulligans, Elijah, Annie, and their nephew, Dugan, and look forward to sun, sea, rest, and relaxation. Instead they cross paths with a homicidal maniac. Can they stop him before another innocent victim dies?

Reader comments:

An atmospheric and thoroughly engrossing mystery of people and place, Murder at Whalehead will absorb the reader from its first tantalizing page to its last satisfying conclusion. It's a true page turner, filled with truly realized characters, who understand both faith and doubt."
Michele Rubin, Writers House, New York

In this prequel to his popular novel, Murder at Whalehead, author Joe C. Ellis draws from his experiences growing up in the river town of Martins Ferry, Ohio and the legends surrounding the community. Scotch Ridge is a safe haven from the world until the day Nathan Kyler moves into the shack by the creek. Elijah Mulligan, a leader in the community, does not trust him. Reverend Byron Butler tries to befriend him. But Kyler is obsessed with a diabolical vision--human sacrifice. Who is the focus of Kyler's obsession? Christine Butler, the preacher's daughter. In the graveyard of the Scotch Ridge Presbyterian Church is a monument known as "The Chair." Some say the monument is cursed--if you sit on it at midnight you will die within 24 hours. The day after Christine Butler sits on "The Chair" she disappears. A mile from the church, deep in the Appalachian woods is a place Elijah Mulligan calls "The Healing Place." It is here something incredicble happens. "Beautifully written!" Rev. Dr. R.L. Croker
