Where the Bodies Are
Part 1 of the McAllister series
Step into the twisted mind of a serial killer in this disturbing psychological thriller.
Dead bodies are being, left where they are sure to be, found. But, the killer made a mistake; one victim left for dead survived.
Kept in a medically induced coma while she recovers, they can only watch her and wait for the killer to come back for her.
While Detective Michael Underwood protects their only living witness, Detective Jim McNelly and his reporter friend Lawrence Hawkworth are determined, to find the killer and bring his, killing spree, to an end. Instead, they discover a bigger mystery.
The killer's reality blurs between, past and present with a compulsion driven by a dark secret locked in a fractured mind. Overcome by a blind rage that leaves him wallowing in remorse with the bodies of victim after victim, he is desperate to stop killing.
After learning of his victim's survival, the killer sees it as a sign they are, meant to be together. Threatening her tenuous grip on life, he is determined to take back his prize while he continues kidnapping and murdering young women.
Accustomed to a life of abuse, one victim's experience becomes her refuge in a desperate bid for survival.
Instead of killing her, he keeps Katherine Kingslow imprisoned in the dark while he continues plotting to take back the Jane Doe in the hospital. How long can Kathy survive and will she, lose her own mind?
The search for the killer will lead to his dark secret buried in the past, something much larger than a man, compelled to kill again-and-again.
