About this series

How does a serial killer learn remorse?

Award-winning author, David McCaffrey, brings you the answer.

Obadiah Stark aka The Tally Man, is executed at ADX Absolom, his death sentence watched by the world's media, victim relatives and one investigative reporter, Joe O Connell.
Penning an account of Stark's personal history and subsequent crimes in the hope of determining what makes the sociopathic mind tick, Joe discovers inconsistencies which cause him to investigate Stark's execution.
While this is happening in the real world, Stark awakens to an afterlife, bound to his childhood hometown. Obadiah proceeds to torment the town, committing multiple murders before being gunned down by the police. He awakens to find that everything has reset, with no one recalling his murderous spree.
A reality where he is forced to submit to emotions he has never experienced before... and with them, a poisonous dose of morality.
