The sequel to
The Justin Gates Chronicles - California Nightmare
finds Justin on the sprawling campus of the University of Texas in Austin, where he is majoring in psychology and behavioral science.
Having already helped solve one serial murder mystery, he stumbles across another troubling case in which young lovers are found brutally murdered, their bodies posed in compromising positions.

Meanwhile, Justin's life is brimming with fraternity events, working three jobs, and falling for a girl who's already taken. But filled with a spirit for reckless adventure, it's not long before he gets himself into another grimace-worthy situation. It's ultimately his sharp mind, inquisitive nature, and a passion for discovering what drives individuals to act the way they do that throws him into the heart of a killing spree once again.
Packed with rich characters and set against a backdrop of roiling social change during the mid-1960s, this breathtaking sequel barrels toward a shocking, unforgettable ending.
