The perpetrator, a serial kidnapper/murderer known as the I-90 Killer, escapes and vows revenge, focusing his twisted obsession on Ferguson's own family. When Bill's daughter disappears soon after, the frantic father forms an uneasy alliance with the beautiful FBI investigator leading the search for the I-90 Killer.

Q: What will e-readers like about your book?
This is a fast-paced thriller with believable, sympathetic characters which will keep you turning the pages right to the final sentence.

Q: Why did you go indie?
Three reasons: Control, control and control. The people at StoneHouse Ink have what I believe is a good grip on the changing state of the publishing world, and have demonstrated proven sales results with the success of authors Vincent Zandri and Aaron Patterson.

Q: Who are your favorite authors in your genre?
If we're talking crime fiction, I'll go with Vincent Zandri, Dave Zeltserman, Sophie Littlefield, Lawrence Block, Lee Child, Joseph Finder and about a thousand other unbelievable authors.
