Scar in the Sky a thriller by J Todd Scott

“Scott brings the chills in this inventive serial killer thriller . . . Scott’s wild plot offers surprises even for veteran suspense fans. Readers of Lincoln Child and Douglas Preston should check this out.”—Publishers Weekly

J Todd Scott Author J. Todd Scott was born in rural Kentucky and attended college and law school in Virginia, where he set aside an early ambition to write to pursue a career as a federal agent. His assignments have taken him all over the U.S and the world, but a gun and badge never replaced his passion for stories and writing. When he’s not hunting down very bad men, he’s hard at work on his next book.

IMDB | Substack

“In this riveting postapocalyptic thriller the world has been rocked by multiple catastrophes, including a terrible new disease that’s ‘a silent killer of children across the globe that now affects adults.’ Admirers of Justin Cronin will want to check this one out.”—Publishers Weekly
