Synopsis

Still Life With Crows: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience!

A small Kansas town has turned into a killing ground.
Is it a serial killer, a man with the need to destroy?
Or is it a darker force, a curse upon the land?

Amid golden cornfields, FBI Special Agent Pendergast discovers evil in the blood of America's heartland.

No one is safe.
