Story
True-crime podcaster Jess Keeler has returned to Deeton County, North Carolina, to pick up where her grandfather left off. Sheriff’s Deputy Big Jim Ballard, her grandfather, was a respected detective—until it all came crashing down during a 1972 murder investigation. For Jim, solving the murders of two teens should have been the highlight of his already storied career. Instead, he battled his own mind, unsure where his hunches ended and the truth began.

Meet Jack Jordan. He’s a smooth-talking con artist with a penchant for the fast life. He’s snuck into Lufkin, Texas, in the dead of night with little more than a beat-up Honda, a hollowed-out King James Bible full of cocaine, and enough emotional baggage to sink a steamship. He’s charming, dedicated, and extremely paranoid.

Publisher's Summary
Second in the Jess Keeler Thrillers series, this moody installment follows the podcaster’s investigation of one brutal, bloody summer in a former mill town and the shocking truths brought to light.
Hot on the heels of her podcast debut, Jess Keeler looks for another unsolved crime to investigate—this time with a documentary crew in tow. But she can’t seem to find the right case…until a handsome stranger approaches her in a bar in Lake Castor, Virginia, with an incredible story about wrongful conviction.
The Lake Castor sniper struck in 1984. Terrorizing the historically Black part of the old mill town, the killer claimed five lives. No one seemed worried about the first four victims. But when journalist Hal Broadstreet was killed, the police were suddenly interested. They arrested a suspect two days later.
But did they get the right man?
As evidence emerges pointing to a false confession and a murky connection to three bootleggers’ murders, Jess closes in on the truth—and risks landing in the sights of the true sniper.
Critic Reviews
“The intriguing sequel to Something Bad Wrong utilizes dual timelines and three voices that contrast styles of crime coverage in a Southern noir story of violence, corruption, and racism. For fans of true-crime podcasts or S.A. Cosby.”—Library Journal (starred review)
“Blood Red Summer is a wire-to-wire winner. Eryk Pruitt writes with a complexity that’s deceptive because his stories are so engrossing and propulsive. He juggles narrators and timelines with ease without any loss of momentum or tension. The plotline is thrilling; the characters are rich, the dialogue’s on pitch, and the climax delivers on all of it. Blood Red Summer is a blue-ribbon book.”—Wes Browne, author of They All Fall the Same and Hillbilly Hustle
“My friend, wow, you have a winner here! Not to say anything bad about Something Bad Wrong but this one is so much tauter, the character’s so well defined, the plot so much more intriguing. Man, I can’t wait for this one to come out so I can start putting it in people’s hands. Eryk Pruitt has put on a pair of seven league boots and taken a big step forward.”—Pete Mock, McIntyre’s Books in Pittsboro, NC
