Beschreibung

Detective Suzanne Eviston, Special Assault Unit, Everett, Washington says this: "Loving the book! Especially the killer talking in first person...great!" In this fast paced, character driven murder mystery set in the Pacific Northwest and told from multiple first person points of view, The Avenger gruesomely murders wealthy, prominent men accused of sexual crimes. Hot tempered Sergeant Nita Slowater, ticked off about being assigned as the second-in-command of the Special Crimes Team--widely regarded as the Siberia of Law Enforcement--immediately clashes with her superior, Lieutenant Michael Williams, a man known to bend the rules. As the body count rises, The Avenger contacts Dawn Samira an investigative reporter. Nita is assigned as liaison with the pushy lesbian, but a reporter got her best friend killed and Nita is in no mood to play nice. The only bright spot in Nita's life is her unlikely friendship with a homeless, black artist known as Molly the Pack Lady. When Molly suddenly dies, Nita is willed all of the old woman's art. Unknown to Nita, hidden within Molly's sketchpads is the key to the killer's identity. Nita must uncover the killer's identity before an innocent man becomes The Avenger's next victim.

Autor

Born on the wrong side of life,I learned to make myself invisible, to be so quiet that no one noticed me in the shadows. My illiterate grandfather, and nearly illiterate grandmother valued books and education; consequently, they coaxed a Carnegie Librarian to teach me to read and write by age six.
When I was nine years old, my grandfather was murdered; the killer never apprehended. Writing allowed me to deal with my anger and grief by changing the ending of that particular reality: I wrote murder stories.
I published my first poem and my first journalistic articles around the age of fourteen. It was a time of countrywide unrest and riots.
After that, I never stopped writing--poems, articles, short stories, novels.
Good Intentions (first edition), a literary novel, received the Alice B. Reader Award for Excellence in 2002.
Sketch of a Murder and Street Harvest have made Amazon's Top 100 Bestseller's Lists several times.
