A new book by Mr. W. Croff of Vineland, The Basement Murdera, was recently released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

In the book, David Philisburg was released from an orphanage when he turned 21. Then, looking for somewhere to live, he rented a basement room from a young woman named Linda. When her new tenant begins acting strangely, Linda realizes there is something very wrong with David.

Suffering from bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and depression from his childhood memories, David’s conditions grow worse the longer he refuses to take his prescribed medications. So when he hears voices and sees vivid flashbacks of his past, David reacts dangerously, putting Linda and many others at risk in ways they could never have imagined.

The Basement Murdera is a 50-page hardcover with a retail price of $26 (eBook $21).
