Death Came Knocking (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798348360269)

Death knocks at your door, and before you can tell him to come in, he is in the house with you. - Grace Ogot

Are you ready for a psychological thriller with enough twists and turns to keep you turning the pages? Death Came Knocking is a murder mystery full of suspense, humor, and a hint of romance.

Jack Hawkins is a criminal investigator with the Pennsylvania State Police, nicknamed "Hawk" because he always swoops down to capture his prey-killers. A manhunt is underway for a serial killer known as The Park Strangler, but is he the only one? As Jack investigates these murders, his instincts, along with those of his partner, Lisa McMahon, though lacking tangible evidence, unravel the mysteries that abound.

Jack has help, but not from a source you might expect. He often wakes up in the middle of the night from nightmares where victims knock on a door. As he opens the door, he comes face to face with a murder victim, who provides him with nonverbal information to help solve the case. Jack confronts death fearlessly as he bravely and relentlessly pursues the truth that will bring the killer-or killers-to justice.

As the suspense builds, you will delve into the mind of the psychopathic killer (or killers) to see how their childhood experiences shaped their psyche and their lust to kill. You will empathize with them, only for the hideousness of their crimes to swiftly snatch that empathy away.

You'll love Jack Hawkins, especially his humor and sarcasm. He's a man who grapples with inner struggles surrounding forgiveness and love. He has an enormous heart for others. You will walk alongside Jack through his many losses and a grieving heart. You may even find a tear in your eye. Will he find love, or will bitterness consume him?
