When a string of brutal axe killings shatters the quiet charm of North Carolina's Outer Banks, longtime residents whisper about a legend best left buried - the Goatman of Nags Head Woods. Local private detective Angie Stallone and bookstore owner Mee Mee Roberts don't believe in monsters, but the evidence soon points to something far darker than folklore.
Deep in the maritime forests, something ancient is stirring. Locals report glowing eyes between the pines. One by one, business owners are slaughtered. And every crime scene carries the same chilling signature: a body hacked to death with an axe.
As the body count rises, Angie and Mee Mee race to uncover the truth behind the island's forgotten folklore - a truth tied to a centuries-old secret order. But the closer they get, the more they realize the killer isn't just stalking the Outer Banks... it may be stalking them.
A gripping blend of coastal mystery, supernatural suspense, and relentless tension, The OBX Axe Murders plunges readers into a world where the line between myth and reality is carved in blood.
Perfect for fans of atmospheric thrillers, small-town secrets, and stories where the woods watch back.
