Red Is for Shrouds — Mary Ann Taylor

Someone was killing redheaded girls

Three of them had been savagely bludgeoned to death and the small town seethed in turmoil.

Police Chief Emil Martin's job was squarely on the line. He had exactly one week to find the ruthless killer or the townspeople would send for outside help.

Yet every lead ended in a blind alley! Then the killer struck again. Only this time, Chief Martin was ready.
