The Mile Marker Murders

By C.W. Saari

When Caleb Williamson, a career officer with the CIA, disappears, officials are left wondering whether he is a spy who has defected or the victim of a crime.

Meanwhile, Williamson's friend, FBI agent Tyler Bannister, is focused on catching an extortionist who has threatened to unleash a biological poison if a multimillion dollar demand is not met. When Williamson turns up dead alongside the corpses of two women near a northern Virginia highway, Bannister is assigned to a task force to identify what looks to be a cunning serial killer. While Bannister becomes obsessed with finding the murderer before he strikes again, a fourth body is discovered.

The stakes become more personal when the killer targets Bannister's new love interest.

The Mile Marker Murders

I loved this book, couldn't put it down and can't wait to read the next one. Ty Bannister is our new hero. J. R. Manninen

The Mile Marker Murders

This is great novel for anyone who enjoys a good FBI/CIA espionage and criminal thriller. Several plots are skillfully connected. The descriptive details makes you believe you are following FBI Agent Bannister through the streets of Atlanta and Washington, DC. A very enjoyable book which accurately captures the inner workings of an FBI investigation.

The cover of this debut novel caught my eye and the title intrigued me. I also found the settings, which shift from Atlanta to Washington DC, to be refreshing. We follow agent Ty Bannister of the FBI as he investigates a major blackmailing of a bottled water company and then as he becomes part of a task force trying to solve serial murders, including that of his best friend. As a character, Bannister is conscientious, hard working and likable. The author's obvious experience and keen insight into the FBI keeps the action moving and credible. His descriptions place the reader in the middle of every scene. At the beginning I wondered about the dual themed plot; however, it works well and comes together at the end. The action throughout is quick paced, suspenseful and well written. I liked this book and am hoping for a sequel.

The Mile Marker Murders

I couldn't put this book down! I don't normally read mysteries or police thrillers. However, after reading what the book was about, I decided to take a chance and can honestly say I was not disappointed. It had a fast moving and believable plot with plenty of action. Every character came alive through the author's descriptions and carried you right into each scene. Even the backgrounds of the murder victims were well crafted and made you feel saddened at their deaths. The characters and plot were tightly woven. Unlike other books, this one did not leave any loose threads. This book is good and is a fast read. It would make a great movie.
