The Gift of Death

By Joyce Elaine

Death and sex become intricately intertwined in the life of Lieutenant Paul Jennings, polar opposite forces that threaten to vanquish him and all he treasures.

Paul has a great wife, an intelligent and ambitious daughter who's about to start her last year of college, and a rewarding career as a top lieutenant with the Maryland State Police. He also has a secret that he's been carrying with him since he was eighteen years old.

After he and his daughter are harassed by a crazed driver, Paul later finds that a close family friend is violently attacked on the same day. Is it just a coincidence or attempted murder? Lieutenant Jennings finds himself on a path of horrifying revelations and soon realizes that the secret he has kept may be the thing that now most threatens his life and the lives of his family, friends, and colleagues.

The Gift of Death is a psychological thriller that will not only keep you up at night, but will have you reflecting on your own secrets, no matter how big or small, and how they could affect your family, your friends, and your future-if you have one.
