Loved To Death

A wild and dangerous obsession is born the day Sierra Martine backs her car into Banker Ross's blood-colored van in the hot, dusty town of Riverbend in the Texas Hill Country. Banker manages the town's hardware store on the courthouse square. His wife, Franny, obese and submissive to her husband's control, notices Banker's increasing secretive nature, but remains unaware that a Voice in his head constantly badgers him to follow his darker impulses.

Banker's erotic fantasies bolster his ego. He sees himself in a nowhere job burdened by a too fat wife who selfishly holds him back. He dreams of being a big shot, perhaps even mayor. When he meets Sierra, he decides he will win her, control her, make her his own. He will love her to death.

He sets upon a quest to get her attention, to win her affections. No one would ever consider him, the quiet man next door, as a suspect in the sadistic sexual murders that strikes fear and panic in Riverbend that hot Texas summer.

Franny and Sierra unwittingly are thrust into danger where they must rely on their own personal strengths and experience to keep them alive.
