Steel Breeze: A Gripping Serial Killer Thriller

by Douglas Wynne

Genres: Horror; Crime Fiction

Synopsis

A grieving husband. A missing child. A killer with motives as deep and twisted as the bloody roots of history.
One year after the brutal murder of his wife, Desmond Carmichael believes someone is stalking him and his four-year-old son following a hair-raising encounter with a hooded stranger in their placid New England town.

Across the country in the California desert, a severed head is found atop a watchtower at a Japanese internment camp memorial and FBI Special Agent Erin Drelick embarks on a manhunt that will lead her into the dark heart of the nation’s past.

Desmond fears that the wrong man was imprisoned for his wife’s murder, that the true killer is still at large. His in-laws and a local police detective have a different fear: that he has become too unstable to raise his own son.

When the child goes missing, Desmond must work outside the law to decipher the mystery of why his family has been targeted. But can he do it in time to save his son from a monster born in the dust of an American wasteland and hell-bent on reaping a whirlwind of vengeance?
