About This Book
Melvin Heckfield, an only son of retired Special Forces Colonel and Houseboat magnate, Derrick Heckfield, was mysteriously murdered. The bloody, brutal and gruesome murder ignites a chain of events. The blood trail leads Detective John Winslow and his student assistant Chet Higgins from the small town of Somerset, Kentucky, across country to Sacramento, California. Through abject poverty, derelict and dilapidated buildings infested by drug dealers and crack heads, hopelessness, senseless violent murders, blood-drenched labyrinths and realities typical of inner-cities hoods, they navigate, stirring up the disappearance case of an only daughter, young April Garrison, religious volunteer and High School straight A student. Finally, these sad and depressing situations-and an uncanny vengeance-culminate in an explosive, revealing and unexpected conclusion beyond the realm of comprehension.
