They arrive alive. They always leave dead.
But first, they give me their confessions, and this one has to everything to do with Christmas.
Merry Ho-Ho and all that holiday cheer. This book has it all: the cozy, loving, gift-giving while chomping on cookies right before you die - type of feels you know you'll read with one of my confession books. If you think this book has all that fun, cheerful yule-tide greetings in it...you're only partially right.
You know by now my name is Jack Steen, and for those who arrive on my 'death' ward at the Asylum, I'm the last face many will see before they die. I am the night nurse at an Asylum for the Criminally Insane, and most of my patients know me as their Angel of Death. I know them as mass murderers, rapists, and serial killers - among other things.
Here's what happens: they come on my floor, they give me their deathbed confession, and I help to make their death less painful. There's a catch, though: I want the real story, the one they haven't told anyone else.
These killers are expert manipulators. I realize they could be playing with me and messing with my head. It's a chance I'm willing to take.
And now...they might just be playing with yours too.
Inside this book are 4 DeathBed Confessions all around the holiday theme:
- Patient Clyde - likes to nibble on sugar cookies while watching his victim die
- Patient Penny - likes to replace the jam in the thumbprint cookies with blood
- Patient Andrea - she's got a thing about gingerbread cookies and revenge
- Patient Birdie Bleu - give her some candy cane shortbread cookies - after all she's been through, she deserves them.
- Patient Becca - this was one confession I had no interest in taking but I had no choice.
WARNING: There is swearing in this book. And some stories might be a trigger for something you have a hard time handling.
But, these ARE the confessions of serial killers, mass murderers, and such, so what do you expect?
Because it's the holidays ... my Christmas gift to you will be sharing my favorite anti-Christmas playlist as well as recipes for each of the above cookies mentioned (recipes provided by my mother, who happens to be the best cook and baker in my world).Also from
