Pretty Blue Death

A twisted psychopath targets a group of friends.

A page-turning thriller from page one!

Mark and Daly Ford are living the good life in the San Fernando Valley of southern California. Busy building their security company, they are shocked when a long-time friend drowns unexpectedly in his pool, shaking their world. With no foul play or reason for the drowning indicated, they, along with their neighborhood poker group, are baffled. Just as the alarm of losing a good friend begins to subside, another friend from their group dies of a massive heart attack while working at a food bank. Both deaths appear to be innocent enough, but Daly's instincts from her years with the L.A.P.D.'s Behavioral Analysis Unit cause her to question if the deaths could be linked. But what is the common thread explaining the murders, if that's what they are?

Mark and Daly thrust themselves into investigating if their friends' deaths could be more than coincidence ... and perhaps a deadly vendetta being carried out against their close-knit group. Worse yet, could the person behind these deaths be someone from within their group of friends? Mark and Daly plunge headlong into solving the mystery, joining forces with an eccentric scientist friend from their poker group with strong analytical skills.
As bodies continue to pile up, they're joined by a police detective from Scotland Yard, Sean McClarey, on loan to Santa Monica PD. Still mourning the loss of his wife during childbirth, Sergeant McClarey throws himself into the case, bringing his respectful yet penetrating style to his interrogations.

Will this band of friends be able to unravel the twisted intentions driving the serial killings in time? How many of their friends may die while they're piecing the puzzle together? Will Mark and Daly be next on the killer's list?

Enjoy the twists and turns of this non-stop thriller leading to a surprising climax, punctuated by a psychopath's obsessions
