The Scarce Man

By James Frie

Book Overview

The Scarce Man centers on Agent Mike Rawlings of the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension. He is Minnesota's top murder detective and is nearing retirement when he's called in to handle the most baffling and dangerous case of his career. Someone with a violent M.O. is killing certain people in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. Rawlings deduces that the murders are politically motivated, but what he doesn't know is that the killer, who in the days following 9/11, has become obsessed with the idea that he alone can begin a chain of events that will launch the social revolution he believes will save the country. The killer forms an alter-ego, whom he calls The Patriot. What Rawlings doesn't know, is that the Patriot has inside knowledge that will make him more deadly than anyone he's ever faced; and much harder to stop.

A Wild Ride into Domestic Terrorism

This book is truly exciting. I had a difficult time putting it down and walking away from it. I read it in two days and was disappointed that it wasn't longer so I could continue the journey in the mind and soul of " a patriot." I guarantee you will tell your friends about this one. I hope there is a follow up book to this true thriller. BRILLIANT! Now, let me go make sure my doors are locked...

This one grabs ya! Couldn't put it down. This book is filled with suspense and surprise. Hope you keep on writing. Can I get on some kind of list so I know when your next book comes out?

Excellent!

This book grabs you right from the start and holds on until the end. Great use of detail that can really be appreciated by those "in the know" of police work. Can't wait for the next one!
