Diary of a Serial Killer

Beschreibung

After being kidnapped by a psychopathic serial killer, Tracey Randall does not think she is going to survive: "Tracey Randall was a born optimist, but as she lay on the cold floor at the foot of a bed with her wrist cuffed to the bed-leg, she thought she was going to die. The sociopath who had kidnapped her said he wasn't going to hurt her, but the psychotic gleam in his eyes and the sadistic half-smile on his lips told her differently." It seems as if Tracey Randall will become another victim, but her attacker has underestimated her will to live. The attractive seventeen-year-old is taken to an isolated cabin and held prisoner after being stalked and kidnapped by serial killer, Eric Blackburn. However, Tracey is not willing to give in to the sadistic killer and fights back. Tension continues to build as the killer continues to focus on "the one that got away" while targeting new victims. As the story progresses, Tracey is no longer the victim the reader meets at the start of the novel; instead she becomes the driving force behind the capture of her tormentor. As a police officer in a small New England town, Shawn Davis has the law enforcement experience to craft a suspenseful crime tale like no other. Diary alternates from the point of view of the killer, the police officer pursuing him, and the victim-turned-heroine so it is both a grim psychological insight into a killer's mind and a fascinating police procedural tale.

Autor

Shawn Davis grew up in the small town of Holliston, Massachusetts. He earned his Bachelor of Science Degree in Criminal Justice from Salem State University, and he works as a police officer in a small New England town. He also worked as a police lieutenant at a New England College for eleven years. Shawn's background in law enforcement lends authenticity to his crime thrillers. Shawn is also the co-author of the real-life WW II adventure, Never Surrender, with his Great Uncle and protagonist of the story, Earl Anderson. Never Surrender is the true story of Earl's incredible experiences fighting the Japanese in the Philippines and then surviving for three and a half years as a POW in Yokohama, Japan. Shawn also co-authored the Sci-Fi Thriller, Revolution, with his friend from high school, Robert Moore. American Insurrection is a high-tech, adrenaline-fueled, action-adventure story about a violent future rebellion in the United States. Shawn also authored the edgy horror thriller, Blood Kiss, which details the reign of terror of a coven of beautiful female vampires at a small New England college. In addition, Shawn authored the gritty crime thriller, American Criminal, which describes a former cop's struggle to survive in prison after being set up by his corrupt partners on a drug force tactical team. In the novel, Bounty Hunter, an indomitable anti-hero drives an armored battle-car through a post-apocalyptic wasteland, fighting a deadly array of post-nuke enemies. In the horror novel, The Soulless, written with co-author Mark Mackey, an army of zombies and genetically engineered monsters is let loose by a female mad scientist working for the government. Finally, in Diary of a Serial Killer II: Ice Man, Shawn follows up his first popular horror novel in the Serial Killer Series by introducing a deadlier psychopath based on the notorious Ice Man, Richard Kuklinski. The victim-turned-heroine in Book I, Tracey Randall, returns as an indomitable detective tracking the killer in Book II.
