Twisted Minds (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Vandalism of a women's center whose co-founder wears a hijab; an old homeless woman beaten unconscious dies of her injuries. A lesbian woman attacked and raped in her own garage; her home vandalized.
The minister of a storefront, white supremacist church posts encouragement to the perpetrator as news of these crimes hits the streets.
Sergeant Nita Slowater and the Special Crimes Team follow a bloody trail that twists through a morass of hate rhetoric and a long history of violence. The urgency to stop this predator ramps up when a drive-by shooter takes aim at Nita and her wife, Dawn Samira, as they jog along a public roadway close to their home.
Seattle has always prided itself on inclusiveness and diversity. Is the city about to show a far different face to the world? Are these random attacks against minorities or is something more sinister arising from the busy streets of Seattle?

Autorenporträt

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.
