Description

<p>Terrified California residents face the shocking dilemma of yet another serial killer roaming freely in their neighborhoods. However, this time it is an evolving serial killer anomaly that relentlessly searches for, hunts down, and ingeniously traps his victims before unleashing his fiery rage. Always two steps ahead of the cops and fire investigators, the killer hones in on the next sinful target leaving a trail of bones and ashes behind as evidence. It rocks the criminal justice system to the core as a string of arson murders hits inside their turf.</p><p>Vigilante detective Emily Stone hunts serial killers and child abductors, covertly and under the law enforcement radar, with her intrinsic skills of criminal profiling and forensic investigation. With Stone’s toughest case yet, the arson serial killer immediately crosses her radar and sends her into the dark territory of a lethal pyromaniac’s mind – to the point of no return.</p><p>While following the clues of the relentless firebomber, Stone grabs the attention of a government anti-terrorist organization called GATE that oversees all law enforcement cases across the U.S., which now focuses their sights on her proven abilities. They have very specific plans for her, whether she likes it or not.</p><p>Everything teeters on the edge of reality, as Stone must battle for her life between a hired assassin and an arson serial killer. Lines are drawn on both sides of the law. Friendships and lovers are tested.</p>

Story Behind The Book

Growing up in the 20th Century, we all talked about changing the world. Now the world is changed, and we find we got lost along the way. When did that happen? Was it while we were smoking with the boys upstairs? Maybe our lovers told us life stories that turned out not to be true. Or maybe the technology changes so quickly we never really catch up. Can reality actually be reduced to tweets? Different characters with different voices drive the story cycle in Believable Lies. Life is funny sometimes, isn't it? And then, when we look in the mirror, are we still laughing?

<span><font size="2"><font face="Courier New"></font></font></span><p></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoPlainText"><span></span></p><p>&quot;The stories in Neil Crabtree’s debut story collection Believable Lies are bold, risky, and wildly entertaining. You’ll laugh so hard you won’t realize you’re crying. No one should be this good, or this funny, the first time out. Neil’s genius is his ability to uncover the sadness that underlies the comic and the grandeur just below the surface.&quot; <br />--<a title="John Dufresne" href="http://www.johndufresne.com/">John Dufresne</a>, author of Requiem,MASS. <br /></p>
