The Second Burning: A Football Weekend Thriller - Paperback

On the eve of Notre Dame's biggest football weekend of the year, the past refuses to stay buried.

As Irish fans flood campus for the showdown against Georgia, psychologist and Notre Dame alum Trace Curran is pulled into a nightmare when bodies begin appearing-each murder staged with chilling precision, as if someone is turning the university into a ritual.

Trace uncovers a forgotten link between Notre Dame and General William Tecumseh Sherman-the man who burned Atlanta, whose children attended ND, and who gave the university's commencement speech just weeks after the South surrendered. Now, with Georgia fans in town and old resentments boiling, the killings feel less like madness...and more like a message.

Trace has one weekend to stop a serial killer before history ignites again-and The Second Burning begins.
