Ahead of being published on February 18th, Meg Gardiner‘s novel The Dark Corners of the Night, the third book in a series, has already been picked up for a series adaptation with Amazon Studios acquiring the rights earlier this week, according to Deadline.
“The first book, UNSUB, follows a female detective on the trail of an infamous serial killer – inspired by the still-unsolved Zodiac case – who breaks his silence and begins killing again. The detective grew up watching her father destroy himself and his family as he chased the killer, and now finds herself confronting the same monster her father failed to catch.”
“In the third book, The Dark Corners of The Night, the heroine has risen through the ranks to become a Behavioral Analysts for the FBI and is on the hunt for a serial killer who targets families, killing the parents and leaving the children alive to witness the unspeakable horror.”
Larry Trilling (“Goliath”) will serve as executive producer and showrunner for the one-hour episode series.
