Description
Junior Detective Henry Ike Pierce is hired to reassess cold-case killings. On the third day of his new job, a dismembered body appears in a local park. The corpse's desecration is like slayings from over two decades ago, and his boss assigns Henry to his first investigation. He must uncover the present-day killer while his boss pushes him to resolve crimes from the past.
Henry seeks a killer within a community of rival ethnic groups, refugees from the 1990s Balkan wars. Rumors point to a killer called 'the hooded one.'
As his investigation unfolds, the young man from western Virginia's coal country discovers that 'trust' has a flexible definition.

Henry Ike Pierce is a brand new Junior Detective, basically hired to work cold case killings. He's only on the job 3 days before a dismembered body is found .... and somehow relates to the murder of his boss' husband .... 20+ years ago.
Being assigned as lead investigator, he must uncover the present-day killer while his boss pushes him to resolve crimes from the past.
(BOOK BLURB) Henry seeks a killer within a community of rival ethnic groups, refugees from the 1990s Balkan wars. Rumors point to a killer called 'the hooded one.' As his investigation unfolds, the young man from western Virginia's coal country discovers that 'trust' has a flexible definition.
Well-written with a complex plot and intriguing story line make this a 'must read'. The characters, especially Henry, are well developed. Secondary characters play a significant role... some can be trusted, some can't. Can't wait to see what happens in this detective's life next.
