Darkness published at last on December 20, 2013.  It was the most difficult editing job ever - probably because I am finally learning that it is not enough to write the story - someone has to review it word by word and make all of the necessary corrections.  Writers tend to see only what is in their head - not what is on the paper.  I actually contacted a professional editor for this book and was told that professional editing runs around $10,000 for a book of this length - obviously far beyond my limited means.  Maybe someday, if I ever sell like Stephen King.  In the meantime,  I gave it my best and hope that is reflected in the final product.

Synopsis - On Manhattan's Upper East Side, a desperate woman flees certain death, on a journey back to the only man she believes can save her. Close behind is the man dispatched to make sure she doesn't reach him. 

In L.A., Detectives Rick Sandler & John Cameron search for the serial killer stalking the massage parlors of East Hollywood, while restless and unhappy Katie O'Hara plans a houseboat getaway, seeking to recreate the passion of her early days with Rick.

In The Delta, Sheriff's Deputies Jessie Red Cloud and Bodie McDonald welcome Rick and Katie to The Delta, unaware that they are about to become players in a drama scripted by the man called The Tracker.
