Synopsis
They called him a monster. He called it salvation.
From the shadows of 1980s Philadelphia to the stained pages of a forgotten journal, Blood & Scripture unearths the chilling confessions of Derrick—a man torn between sin and sanctity, damnation and redemption. As the bodies pile up, so do the scripture-laced justifications scribbled in blood and ink.
This imagined memoir, inspired by true unsolved murders, invites you deep into the mind of a killer who believed his violence was divinely ordained. Blending fragments of Bible verses with journal entries, poetry, and the whispered voices of victims long forgotten, Derrick's story is not one of justice—but of judgment.
Can a man seek salvation after carving his gospel in flesh? Or is forgiveness lost the moment the blade sinks in?
