The Mysterious Mister E

By Jon Briar

A woman who disappears without a trace.

A note, signed only as 'M, ' that is left behind.

A detective who can't help but stare into the abyss.

Detective David Alacris knows monsters do not hide under beds; rather, dressed in charm and silence, they hide in plain sight. When Kimberly Harris disappears from a neat suburban street, Alacris and his partner, Valerie Whitlock, find themselves chasing a predator who plans every move and erases every footprint.

Each clue drags Alacris deeper into a maze of clipped letters, immaculate crime scenes, and his own dark, shadowy thoughts. The case is a mirror, and the face that stares back may not be one that anyone is ready to see.

In a city where rain washes blood off brick before the sun rises, The Mysterious Mister E is a hypnotic, brooding thriller, which tells the tale of a hunter who knows he is being hunted, and the detective who will risk anything to stop his suspect, even if it means becoming the very monster he pursues.
