I'm Already
Dead
A psychological thriller about the boy blamed for his mother's death — and the man he built in the dark to survive it. By Paul Elliott.
“You can't kill me. I'm already dead.”I'm Already Dead — Paul Elliott
The Book
A mind built from grief
Mark Miller was eight years old the night an old pickup truck, a wet road, and one wrong turn took his mother — and his father decided who deserved the blame. What grew inside him in the years after wasn't rage. It was precision.
Now a Seattle security executive by day, Mark moves through the city's rain-slicked streets as two men — until a methodical FBI agent stops believing in coincidence.
In His Own Words
Every monster starts as someone broken
“One accident. One lie. One unforgivable blame.”
“Seattle's quiet streets became his laboratory.”
“Dare to step inside his mind.”
About the Author
Paul Elliott
“I do not think of myself as a writer. I am simply a storyteller. This story revealed itself to me piece by piece, and I followed where it led.”
Paul writes from the mountains of southern Colorado, drawing on his own experience with childhood adversity to explore how pain, left unspoken, can calcify into something dangerous.
