Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees

Live, laugh, shed blood. Dexter meets Richard Scarry’s Busy, Busy Town in this twisted debut graphic novel! Don’t. Murder. The locals. For Samantha Strong, this isn’t just advice, it’s survival. She’s Woodbrook’s most reliable shop owner, its warmest smile, and beneath all that fur…its most efficient serial killer. The big city beyond the evergreens has more than enough prey; Sam just wants her tranquil life, her tidy storefront, and the comforting lull of cedar branches and apple-pie breezes. But tranquility shatters when a fellow Woodbrook resident turns up savaged by an unknown hand. Suddenly the gossip swirls, panic rises, and Sheriff Patterson is on the prowl, too close for comfort. This paperback from IDW Publishing is a strong pickup for graphic novel readers who want something easy to browse, gift, and recommend. At 152 pages, it offers the kind of shelf presence that helps it stand out in store.
