Ghost Face returns like you've never seen or read before. The village of Port Jefferson, Long Island, NY, is rocked by a kidnapping on the Cross Island Ferry that leads to a series of murders that adds to the mystery. Detective Powers and Johnson, led by Detective Lieutenant Cronin, are pressured by national media, the FBI, and the public to solve the related cases before more innocent lives are lost. Things become tense as the detectives' personal lives become complicated as the mystery unwinds in the case that would become known as The Face of Fear.

From the Inside Flap

"'The Face of Fear' reintroduces Ghost Face to the world, and you'll never think of him (or her---or them) in the same way again. The mystery isn't just in who's behind the mask but why. Torbert gives readers all the pieces to the puzzle, though putting them together is another story. Equal parts horror and heart, "The Face of Fear" draws readers in with its complex characters and chilling plot only to prove that nobody is safe--or beyond suspicion. With "The Face of Fear" Ghost Face makes the transition from screen to page, proving that true terror is found between the lines.'' "Hartford Book Examiner"
