T.J. Payne

T.J. Payne is the author of:

IN MY FATHER'S BASEMENT: A serial killer novel
INTERCEPTS: A horror novel
THE VENUE: A wedding novel

T.J. Payne writes primarily in the horror and thriller genres. His writing style relies on a light touch, using lean, smooth prose to build and maintain the story's intensity.

Humans are the only species on Earth with the capability to create both great beauty and unspeakable acts of cruelty. The exploration of that duali
