A Killing Breath
Coming March 17, 2026
Raven Burns owes her life to the kind souls who looked after her while her father, unbeknownst to them, sowed a path of blood and bodies from California to Louisiana as one of the most notorious serial killers ever known, Floyd “Fire” Burns. When Raven was a girl, Floyd brutally murdered one of those kind souls, Miss Ruth Jefferson, when the woman made the fatal decision to open the door to him on a pitch-black 4th of July night. As Raven learned of her father’s crimes, she vowed to do everything in her power to put men like him away. Decades later Raven’s hunt for a serial killer terrorizing the town leads her right back to that 4th of July night, and a memory that will make her question how much Floyd’s evil has settled in her bones.

"Faye Snowden's A KILLING BREATH took my breath away. This brutal and beautiful story about secrets and survival, and the legacies that fathers leave their daughters haunted me in a way good books do. Snowden's best work!" - Rachel Howzell Hall, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author
