Twenty Cents

About the Book

Josh Mckendricks was once the best cop in his California division until a bloodthirsty fiend came after his family. The Twenty Cents Killer leaves two dimes on his victim’s eyes, and one of his victims was Josh’s son. Haunted by grief, Josh spirals out of control, pulling away from his loved ones—even his wife—as his life is now nothing more than a hunt. It seems the Twenty Cents Killer does it for pleasure. He likes killing, enjoys the thrill of it, and the number of his victims steadily climbs into the thousands as Josh fruitlessly tries to stop him. The frustration of failure only sends Josh into a deeper darkness, but he will not stop searching until justice is served. However, the killer is much closer than Josh ever could have guessed. As more dead bodies are discovered—and as the Twenty Cents Killer creeps closer and closer to Josh’s remaining family—all hope seems lost. Is there a chance this killing machine can be caught, or will innocent lives be crushed beneath the weight of heartbreak and loss?
