Dead Secret Circle (Demo)

DEAD SECRET CIRCLE is a horror mystery set in Chicago in 1971. In this sequel to the critically acclaimed DEAD SECRET, reality and dreams collide as investigative reporter Patricia Gable sees beyond the flesh to chase a killer with a grisly M.O. Track the killer, narrow the suspects, and above all, stay alive. The DEMO contains the first three levels.

Five years after the events of DEAD SECRET, Patricia Gable's investigation of a serial killer leads her to a condemned apartment building in East Chicago. There she finds people living on the margins of society, too poor or too stubborn to leave, each with something to hide. The building nearly vibrates with secrets. And strangely, Patricia feels like she's been there before.
